Large amount, imperfect score

It is common for a business to outgrow its owner's credit report. Revenue climbs, the team grows, contracts get bigger, while the score still carries the weight of a tax lien that was settled or a few late payments from a lean year. When the business needs $500,000, that mismatch can shut the door at a bank. We review FICO scores from 500 and up, and we look hard at what the business itself is doing.

How funders weigh credit on a big request

Credit is one input, not a verdict. On a $500,000 request, funders typically look at several things together:

A lower score combined with strong, steady deposits can still lead to a meaningful offer. A lower score combined with thin or irregular deposits usually means a smaller one. The amount depends mainly on deposits and existing obligations.

An illustration

For illustration: a contractor with a 560 score, years of steady deposits, and no current advances may be in position to request a large amount. Another business with the same score but three active advances has less room, because a share of its cash flow is already committed. Neither outcome is automatic; it depends on the full file.

Products to consider

A request of this size can be structured as a merchant cash advance, working capital, a line of credit, equipment financing, or revenue-based financing. If your needs are smaller, the $250,000 bad credit page may fit better. Larger? See $1,000,000.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I get $500,000 with bad credit?

We consider FICO 500+. Whether $500,000 fits depends mainly on your deposits and existing obligations, reviewed together with your credit history.

Does a recent late payment matter more than an old one?

Generally, recent issues carry more weight than older ones. Funders look at the overall pattern, not a single event.

Will checking my options lower my score?

We start with a soft credit pull, which does not affect your score like a hard inquiry can.

What if I am offered less than I asked for?

Your offer reflects what your file supports. You can accept it, decline it, or apply again once your numbers change.

Crew expansion $140,000.00
