Funding in as little as 24 hours for qualified businesses.

A reserve you only use when you need it

Some costs you can see coming but cannot size ahead of time. A storm damages your storefront awning. A supplier offers a deal if you buy this week. A client in the hospital corridor asks you to staff a bigger shift than usual. A business line of credit gives Baltimore owners a set amount to draw against, so you can respond without applying for new funding every time.

You repay what you draw on the schedule laid out in your offer, and as you pay it down, that room is generally available again.

What goes into the decision

About three months of business bank statements are the starting point. We read deposit volume, how regular it is and what already goes out each month for existing obligations. FICO scores from 500 are considered, and the score is read in context, not as a cutoff by itself. No tax returns are required, the first look is a soft credit pull, and sole proprietors can apply.

Why owners keep a line even when things are good

The best time to set up a line is before you need it. When a strong month gives way to a slow one, or a large customer pays late, the funds are already in place. For many restaurant and trade owners in Baltimore, the peace of mind matters as much as the money. Because you repay only what you draw, an unused line simply sits there as a reserve.

Line, advance or lump sum?

A line works best for recurring or unpredictable needs. If you have one defined purchase, working capital or a merchant cash advance may be simpler. Statewide options are on our Maryland line of credit page. When you are ready, start the 5-minute application; qualified businesses can be funded in as little as 24 hours.
