How National Funding's Bridge Financing Can Work for You
When you need cash flow to close a deal, win an account, or keep operations running smoothly but do not have weeks to wait for traditional financing, our bridge loans can fill that gap. Traditional banks take weeks to process long-term loans, which is why business owners like you use our bridge financing programs to gain access to cash flow fast. Once approved, you’ll receive the cash in as little as 24 hours so your business can thrive without any delay.
Our bridge loan terms can range from 6 to 18 months based on your needs, and you can borrow up to $500,000 through our online application.

How to Apply
When Bridge Loans Are the Right Choice
Bridge financing is the right type of small business loan when you have long-term financing coming but cannot wait for it to arrive. This could include financing from a large bank, investors, and other traditional institutions. Bridge loans can also work when your business experiences a gap in funds and you need to quickly capitalize on an opportunity or pay unexpected costs. Your bridge loan from National Funding can be a quick and strategic solution, but this type of business loan may not always be the best option.
A short-term business loan can be a good alternative to a bridge loan and even a replacement for a traditional business loan if you only need funding for the immediate future. A traditional loan may lock you into a 5- or 10-year term and take weeks to approve. Short-term loans can be flexible, offer fast approvals, and come with shorter payback periods, so the debt can clear off your credit report faster.
If you're expanding and need to secure a new location, or if you need to pay rent, cover payroll, and manage other day-to-day operational expenses, a working capital loan could be the solution for you. It is designed for flexibility to meet your current needs, which makes it a great alternative to a fast bridge loan and long-term traditional business loans.
