Credit is one part of the story

A lot of Vermont business owners carry credit scars from a rough stretch: a bad winter, a slow tourist year, a medical bill or a business that did not work out before the current one. Banks often stop the conversation at the score. We take a different approach. FICO 500+ is considered, and we weigh your credit alongside how your business is performing today.

That does not mean credit is ignored. It means it is one factor among several, and steady deposits can carry real weight in the review.

How we weigh a lower score

Every file is reviewed on its own facts, so we cannot tell you in advance how any one factor will play out.

Options that may fit

Depending on your business, a merchant cash advance in Vermont, working capital or revenue-based financing may be a fit. A merchant cash advance provides funds in exchange for a portion of future sales, while revenue-based financing ties repayment to the revenue the business brings in. These products focus heavily on revenue, which is why they are often a better match than a bank loan for owners rebuilding credit. Funding ranges from $25,000 to $5,000,000.

Getting started

The application takes about 5 minutes and starts with a soft credit pull, so you can see your options without starting with a hard inquiry. Send about three months of business bank statements. No tax returns required, and sole proprietors can apply. Your offer shows the full repayment amount and schedule before you accept. Apply now.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long should my business have been open?

We work with established businesses that show steady deposits. About three months of business bank statements helps us see that pattern, and there is no hard revenue minimum stated.

What credit score do I need?

FICO 500+ is considered. Your score is weighed together with your deposits and existing obligations.

Will applying lower my score?

We start with a soft credit pull, which does not count as a hard inquiry.

Can a past bankruptcy or collection stop my application?

Not on its own. We look at your full history and current business performance, and each file is reviewed individually.

What matters most besides credit?

Steady business deposits over about three months and the amount of financing you already carry.

Are costs higher because of my credit?

Every offer is different. Yours will show the full repayment amount before you accept, so you can decide with the real number in front of you.
