How is repayment structured?
You receive a lump sum and repay it on a fixed schedule, typically over 3 to 18 months, so the cost and payoff date are clear from the start.
What do I need to qualify?
Most approvals are based on your monthly revenue and time in business. A short application and recent bank statements are usually all that's required.
How fast can I be funded?
Decisions are often made the same day, with funds reaching your account in as little as 24 hours after approval.
What will it cost me?
You'll see a clear, fixed total cost and payment amount before you accept, with no compounding surprises or hidden fees.
