What are Lines of Credit?
A business line of credit works hard for small businesses because it’s both flexible and ready at a moment’s notice. Instead of a fixed payment or loan, lines of credit are pre-approved funds you can tap on a purely as-needed basis. Plus, since you only pay for what you borrow — there’s no accrued interest or minimum payments when you’re not using it.
- Only pay interest on what you borrow
- Apply and receive money within minutes
- Easily renewable product
Is a Business Line of Credit right for me?
How do I secure a line of credit for my business?
Approved lines vary based on your business and can be secured against collateral or unsecured. Secured lines of credit typically offer better rates and terms.
What makes this useful to small businesses?
The primary advantage of a line of credit is your ability to use it as a revolving source of capital. Use it when you need it. Pay it down when you want. Repeat.
When do I accrue interest on my credit line?
You only pay interest on the money you borrow — when you borrow it. As you pay it back, more credit becomes available. You’re only charged interest when using funds.
Ready for action
Your approved line means funds are ready whenever you need them to ensure business continues seamlessly.
Limited interest
Accrue interest only when credit is being used and go back to zero as soon as it’s paid off.
Lower-cost capital
Access cash on demand at rates that hibernate when not in use.
Fast and easy approval
Get approval within minutes and funds within 48 hours, with flexible terms that are simple to renew.
Put simply, the big benefit to lines of credit is they create financial flexibility for small business owners at a lower cost. When an unplanned expense comes up. Operations keep moving because credit is waiting. No surprises. No worries. Just cash within reach.
