If I already have an existing loan with another company, do I have to pay it off first?

No, competitor payoffs are not required. We have lenders that are willing to take a 2nd or 3rd position. In some cases, they will provide enough funding to pay off an existing loan in addition to getting working capital.

What documents do I need to provide when applying for a business loan, line of credit, or MCA?

You will need to provide a completed application, the last 3 months of business bank statements, photo ID, and voided business check. 

Where do you fund small businesses?

We fund businesses in the United States, including the U.S. territories of American Samoa, Guam, Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico and the U.S Virgin Islands. We also fund in Canada

What is the minimum and maximum credit limit I can get?

The minimum credit limit that can be provided is $5,001, and also follows the state-level lending requirements for loans. On the other hand, the maximum credit limit that can be granted is $55,000.

What is the repayment schedule for a line of credit?

This is a weekly payment schedule and the default day is Monday. Clients can choose to change the payment day.

What are the fees for my line of credit?

There are 2 Main Fees:

1.  4% Draw fee is accessed on the amount each time a draw is made on the account.

2.  Balance fee is accessed weekly based on the average daily balance owed during that week. The balance fee is charged on every weekly payment date and accrues Daily. Meaning, on any given day including weekends! (Remember it’s like a Credit card), the cost of the line of
credit is the average unpaid balance at exactly 11:59pm each day multiplied by the balance fee.

 

 

How are my payments calculated on a line of credit?

The payment is calculated by taking the sum of all balances and fees and dividing it by the term, in days* then multiplying it by seven (7) which is the number of days a LOC’s weekly payment!

When do I have to make my first Draw?

The first draw will be required at account opening and this will be carried out, similar to a weekly loan. The client has the option to choose whether to take the entire line or just a portion of it.
The minimum draw amount throughout the term is set to $1,000.

How will my payments be taken out from a line of credit?

Your weekly repayments will be ACH'd from your business checking account on file on the scheduled payment date. You only pay towards the balance owed.

What are the terms of my business line of credit?

The business lines of credit is set for 6, 9, and 12-month terms. At the end of the term, a client can renew their line of credit and terms (considering repayment history is in good standing).

How fast can I access working capital cash?

Our application process is built around an integrated communication center that gives our lenders, loan advisors, and underwriters instant access to the information they need to approve your working capital loan. Your funding can be approved in as little as 2-5 business hours, with working capital available in as little as one business day. 

How do businesses qualify?

Approval for funding through Lionsford is based on more than just your business’s credit score. We take into account multiple factors, including:

  • Business revenue
  • Cash flow
  • Vendor payment history
  • Years in business
Do you fund startups?

We do not fund startups. To qualify for funding through Lionsford, your business must be in operation for at least 6 months.

I have a low credit score. Can I still qualify?

Of course! At Lionsford, we know your business’s credit score doesn’t always tell the whole story. That’s why our approvals are based on more than just your credit score. We look at the overall health and potential of your business, including:

  • Business revenue
  • Cash flow
  • Vendor payment history
  • Years in business
  • Public records
Are there restrictions on the use of working capital funding, MCAs, line of credit?

No. Our lenders trust that small business owners know best how to use their funding, so they don’t restrict how you use your funds.

If I need additional financing, can I apply for another cash advance?

Yes. Once you have repaid 50% of your original cash advance, you are eligible to apply for another cash advance called a renewal. In most cases, the lender will also increase the amount of the advance you are eligible to receive.

What is the minimum and maximum business loan or MCA I can receive?

We can get you funded from as little as $5,000 up to $5,000,000.
