If you’re facing daily operational challenges, we can swiftly provide the financing you need. This includes covering payroll, emergency repairs, or unexpected tax bills.
Additionally, if you aim to keep your business robust or navigate seasonal downturns in sales, we can secure a loan or line of credit to stabilize cash flow and build up emergency funds.
Q. What type of loans do you offer?
We provide two primary types of loans: term loans and lines of credit.
A business line of credit offers you flexible access to cash on an as-needed basis. With this financing, you can draw cash from your total credit limit for any business purpose, paying interest only on the amount you use. The balance can be paid down at any time, adjusting your payments accordingly, and the repaid amount becomes available for future use. Business owners often establish lines of credit proactively, recognizing that having committed working capital on standby is a smart way to be prepared for unexpected opportunities or challenges.
On the other hand, a term loan allows borrowers to access a set amount of capital that must be repaid over a predetermined period. The total amount, along with interest, is repaid through regular installments—monthly, bi-weekly, or weekly, depending on the agreed-upon terms.
Q. Where Can The Funding Lane Lend?
We have financing options for businesses in all 50 states!
