Balanced Bridge offers financing to NFL players based on the future cash flows from their current and future NFL contracts. We also offer pre-draft financing for those players preparing to enter the NFL Draft.
Most NFL players receive their salary over eight months of the year. Nevertheless, players encounter commitments and investment opportunities that may make standard loan repayment schedules difficult to manage. Balanced Bridge provides the player with a customized repayment schedule to ensure that it meets their unique cash flow situation.
Our contract advances are designed to assist the player in achieving their financial objectives by accessing those future cash flows in which their NFL contract will provide. Financing is available for players under guaranteed and non-guaranteed NFL contracts, as well as for players going through free agency.
