FAQs on Business Line of Credit

A business line of credit is a revolving credit line where you can withdraw funds as needed up to a set limit. Repayment involves making regular payments against the outstanding balance, with interest charged only on the borrowed amount. It's commonly used by businesses to cover ongoing costs and manage cash flow fluctuations.

 

When to use a Business Line of Credit? 
Consider a business line of credit for:

  • Managing Cashflow Fluctuations: Businesses frequently encounter seasonal fluctuations in order demands or payment delays from buyers. A business line of credit is essential for stabilizing cash flow amidst these fluctuations. You can draw on a line of credit to bridge revenue gaps.
  • Covering Short-Term Expenses: Ideal for addressing payroll, supplier payments, or unexpected costs like repairs without depleting cash reserves or disrupting your operations.
  • Scaling Up: Access additional working capital for growth initiatives such as hiring, marketing, or facility expansion, facilitating smooth scaling.

Can you get a Business Term Loan and a Business Line of Credit at the same time?
Yes, you can have both a business term loan and a business line of credit at the same time, as long as you qualify for both. This can be a powerful strategy for businesses.

  • A term loan provides a lump sum for long-term investments like equipment or expansion.
  • A line of credit offers flexible access to funds for ongoing working capital and opportunistic expenses such as contract financing. This way, your business has the resources to cover both planned and unplanned needs.
