Line of Credit
A Line of Credit that businesses can depend on
What Is a Line of Credit?
A line of credit is a flexible financing option that allows quick access to a defined amount of working capital. The way it works is a business is approved for a set amount of credit and has access to that amount through a streamlined process which allows for easy access to drawing on the approved amount when needed. The full amount does not need to be drawn at one time, your business can conveniently draw on as much or as little working capital as it needs, up to the approved amount. Businesses are only responsible for repaying the funds they used, plus any interest or other fees that may be charged.

FAQs
Is it better to get a loan or line of credit?
The type of product that is ideal for your business depends on the need for capital, the desired repayment terms, and the amount of capital needed, among other business-related factors. A loan is ideal for businesses looking for traditional financing with a higher capital amount and potentially longer repayment terms.
A line of credit is ideal for businesses that have repeated cash flow needs. It can also be used for a variety of short-term needs, such as managing payroll or covering unexpected costs. A line of credit allows you to repeatedly draw on funds, up to the maximum credit amount approved, while making regular payments to pay off only what you’ve drawn and any associated fees or costs.
With a loan, the business needs to pay back the entirety of the loan including any associated interest charges or fixed fees.
Can you withdraw cash from a small business line of credit?
Is a line of credit better than a credit card?
Determining whether your business should apply for a line of credit or a business credit card depends on how much working capital your business is looking for, whether or not your business prefers to set terms and payments, or if your business is looking to get some perks.
A business credit card usually has a set credit limit which can be used at any time. Business credit cards also come with a set interest rate and monthly payments. Some even offer cash back. A business credit card could be useful if your business would rather get these additional perks.
A business line of credit can potentially have a higher credit limit depending on what the business is approved for. Lines of credit come with daily, weekly, or monthly payments and have set terms, which may reset on every draw. A line of credit is a great option for businesses that have repeat cash flow needs or want to have working capital ready for any opportunity. This product allows business owners flexible access to working capital.
