When it comes to financing, every small business has unique needs. A one-size-fits-all approach often falls short of meeting these diverse requirements. That’s why we’re excited to introduce our latest dual financing feature: a solution that combines the benefits of Business Term Loans or Flex Funds Advance with the added flexibility of a Business Line of Credit. Let’s explore dual financing, its benefits, and how to qualify.
How Does Dual Financing Work?
Dual financing offers a blend of stability and adaptability. Depending on your needs, there are two primary options to consider:
Option 1 – Business Term Loans + Business Line of Credit: Designed for businesses that prefer a fixed and predictable repayment structure. Fixed Term Loans provide stability with their predetermined repayment plan, while a Line of Credit allows you to draw funds when you need them most.
Option 2 – Flex Funds Advance + Business Line of Credit: Designed with seasonal businesses or those looking for a flexible repayment structure in mind. This combination gives you greater control over your financing with a repayment schedule that aligns with your cash flow patterns and business cycles.
*Business Term Loans and Flex Funds Advance cannot be combined.
