A bank no is not the end of the road

Getting denied by your bank stings, especially if you have banked there for years. But a bank decline usually reflects the bank's rules, not whether your business is worth funding. Banks lean on years of tax returns, collateral, high credit scores and long underwriting. Plenty of healthy businesses fall outside that box.

We look at different things. That does not mean every bank decline becomes a yes with us, but it does mean a fresh review.

Why banks commonly decline

How we weigh the same factors

We start with about three months of business bank statements. Deposits and existing obligations carry the most weight in what we can offer. We consider FICO 500+, and credit is weighed alongside account activity rather than on its own. No tax returns are required, so paper profit does not drive the decision.

We still weigh negative balance days, returned items and current financing payments. Those can reduce an offer or make one harder to justify, and we will be clear about it.

Picking the right next step

After a denial, it is worth matching the product to the need. Ongoing cash gaps often suit working capital or a business line of credit. A specific machine fits equipment financing. Businesses with sales that swing month to month sometimes prefer revenue-based financing. Requesting the right product for the job makes for a cleaner review.

Be realistic about the amount too. Asking for exactly what the business needs, tied to a clear use, tends to go better than asking for the most you think you can get. You can browse common amounts like $100,000 working capital to get a sense of how different sizes are reviewed.

What to do before you apply

  1. Ask the bank for the reason in writing so you know what they flagged.
  2. Pull your last three months of business bank statements.
  3. List any current financing and the payment amounts.
  4. Decide how much you actually need and what it is for.

For more on this, read options after being declined by a bank. When you are ready, apply in about 5 minutes. It starts with a soft credit pull.
