Business Line of Credit

Flexible cash for a store with a seasonal rhythm

Busy weekends, allocation drops and surprise repairs do not follow a schedule. A line of credit lets you draw only when the moment comes.

A line that moves with your order calendar

Liquor retail rarely needs one big check. It needs a little more in late November, a quick repair in July, and a bigger allocation buy when a distributor calls. A business line of credit for liquor stores gives you an approved limit you can draw from when those moments arrive, instead of applying again every time.

You draw what you need, repay according to the schedule in your offer, and keep the rest of the line available.

We break down the trade-offs in line of credit vs. merchant cash advance for liquor stores.

Getting set up

The application takes about 5 minutes. We start with a soft credit pull, then review roughly three months of business bank statements. Tax returns are not required. FICO scores from 500 are considered, and sole proprietors can apply.

Your limit depends mainly on your average deposits and any obligations you already carry. We offer funding from $25,000 to $5,000,000 across our products.

Know the terms before you draw

Before you accept, your offer shows the full repayment amount and how draws are repaid. No costs get added after you sign. Once set up, qualified stores can access funds in as little as 24 hours.

If you want a store that never runs out of its best sellers, start your application today.

How owners use a line through the year

For illustration, picture a neighborhood store that draws in early November to stock up on wine and spirits for the holidays, repays as December sales come in, then draws a smaller amount in June to stock beer and seltzer for summer weekends. In between, the unused part of the line simply sits there as a backstop for a broken cooler door or a surprise tax bill. That pattern is why a line of credit appeals to owners whose needs repeat but whose timing does not. It also saves you from applying from scratch each time a need appears.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is a line of credit different from a loan for a liquor store?

A loan or advance pays out once. A line gives you a limit you can draw against as needs come up, which suits stores with recurring seasonal purchases.

What determines my credit limit?

Mainly your average monthly deposits and existing obligations. Steady, well-documented deposits support a higher limit.

Can I draw just for the holiday season?

Yes. Many stores draw ahead of busy periods and repay as sales come in, following the schedule laid out in the offer.

Does applying affect my credit?

We start with a soft credit pull, so checking your options does not affect your score.

Is there a minimum credit score?

FICO scores from 500 are considered. We also weigh your store's deposit history heavily.

December restock $30,000.00
Cooler repair $9,500.00
Allocation buy $20,000.00
Summer keg stock $15,000.00
