How Do Small Business Loans Work?

The process of getting a small business loan is done in 4 steps:

1

An Application is Submitted

A borrower begins the process by requesting a business loan amount, completing a lender’s credit application and providing any additional documents required by the lender.

2

Lender Reviews Credit Profile

The lender reviews the application to ensure the borrower meets their minimum criteria and looks at factors such as credit history, annual revenue and time in business to make a credit decision.

3

Credit Decision is Given

If the lender approves the credit application, they will then determine the maximum loan amount, pricing structure, loan terms and repayment process.

4

Acceptance and Transfer of Funds

Should the borrower accept the loan terms set by the lender, the loan amount is then transferred to the borrower's bank account.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the minimum credit score for a business loan?
Many traditional lenders require businesses’ credit scores to be 750 and above to qualify for a business loan. However, alternative lenders do offer business loans to borrowers with fair to excellent credit.
How much money can I borrow for a small business?
With National Funding, small businesses can borrow anywhere between $5,000 to $500,000 depending on their unique business needs.
Is a small business loan installment or revolving?
It depends on the type of loan and the lender you choose to work with. If you choose a business term loan, you would receive a fixed amount from the lender that you need to repay in installments with interest. However, if you take out a line of credit, then you are assigned funds up to a certain limit that you can tap into when you need. Once you repay the entire amount or a portion of the funds accessed, you can again utilize the line of credit in the future.
Can you get a business loan online?
In this increasingly internet-savvy world, you can apply for business financing online. While some traditional lenders might still rely on old-school methods of processing your business loan, alternative lenders like National Funding make it easy for you to apply for a business loan from your laptops, smartphones, and tablets.
How quickly can I receive funds after applying for a small business loan?
With a traditional lender, the application process can take weeks. Then, if you are approved, you’ll probably wait a few more weeks for your loan funds to come through. On the other hand, alternative lenders like National Funding make it easy to apply and get your loans fast. If approved, you could have your loan funds in as few as 24 hours.1.
