Why nurseries use our line of credit

A 5-minute application

Credit history is not the whole story

FICO scores from 500 are considered. We put real weight on your deposit pattern across the busy and slow parts of your year.

You see the full cost first

Your offer shows the full repayment amount for a draw before you accept, so there are no surprise costs after you sign.

Repayment you can plan around

Each draw comes with a repayment schedule laid out in the offer up front, so you can map it against your seasonal sales.

Waiting on deposits to land?

Fast decisions. Applying takes about 5 minutes.

Why a revolving line fits a garden center calendar

A nursery does not spend money evenly. You buy liners, bulbs, soil and hardgoods weeks before the first warm weekend, you staff up for the rush, and then sales taper through late summer before a smaller fall push. A lump sum can sit idle for months. A business line of credit lets you draw what you need when the order is due, repay as spring deposits come in, and keep the remaining limit ready for the next push.

We built our line of credit for established nurseries and garden centers with steady deposits. You only use the part you draw, and the available balance rebuilds as you repay.

Common draws we see from nurseries

If your bigger need is a one-time inventory buy, our nursery inventory funding page walks through that case.

What we look at

The application takes about 5 minutes and starts with a soft credit pull. We review about three months of business bank statements to understand your deposit pattern, including the quiet weeks. No tax returns are required, FICO scores from 500 are considered, and sole proprietors can apply. Lines and other funding range from $25,000 to $5,000,000, and the amount depends mainly on your deposits and existing obligations.

Line of credit or a lump sum?

If you know the exact amount and the date you need it, a working capital advance or a merchant cash advance may be simpler. If your needs come in waves, a line usually fits better. Our line of credit vs. MCA comparison for nurseries lays out the differences. When you are ready, start the application.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I draw on the line during the off-season?

Yes. Once your line is open you can draw whenever you need, including slower months. Your offer lays out the repayment schedule for each draw so you can plan around your quieter deposits.

Do you need my tax returns?

No. We review about three months of business bank statements instead, along with a soft credit pull to start.

Is a line of credit good for buying spring inventory?

It is a common use. Many garden centers draw before the season, repay as spring sales come in, and keep the rebuilt limit for fall stock.

How fast can a line be in place?

Decisions move quickly, and funding can arrive in as little as 24 hours for qualified businesses.

Can a sole proprietor nursery apply?

Yes. Sole proprietors can apply, and we look at the business bank statements the same way we would for any other entity.
