What Determines Your Borrowing Amount?

Lenders generally cap loans relative to your revenue and cash flow, a common rule of thumb is up to 1-1.5x monthly revenue for short-term products, more for longer-term or collateralized loans. A business doing $50K/month sees very different numbers than one doing $10K/month.

Time in business, credit, existing debt, and collateral all move the ceiling. Secured products like equipment financing often allow larger amounts because the asset backs the loan, while unsecured products lean harder on your revenue and credit profile.

Which Funding Options Fit Your Number?

Term Loan: $10K, $500K+, sized to revenue and credit, with fixed payments. Best for defined, larger needs where you know the amount up front.

Equipment Financing: $5K, $5M, secured by the asset itself. Best when you need a high amount tied directly to a purchase.

Business Line of Credit: $10K, $250K+ revolving, drawn as needed. Best when the exact amount fluctuates and you want flexibility.
