Veterinary practices / Term loan

A term loan for veterinary practices: one amount, weekly payments, a defined job.

For a veterinary practice with a project to fund, here is how the 15% cap works on real numbers and when something else fits better.

What a term loan looks like for a veterinary practice

At Merchant Fund Express, we publish the terms and thresholds behind this page so you can check your own numbers before you apply.

Not every need is a cash-flow gap. For a veterinary practice, a defined project like imaging equipment, a surgical suite or a second vet often fits a term loan better than an open-ended line.

A veterinary practice uses a term loan for imaging, a surgical suite or a second vet. Procedure revenue per case is well understood, so payback can be modelled from the current schedule.

Published terms in one line: $10,000 to $250,000, 12 to 18 months, 0% origination, weekly payments, a 50% discount on remaining interest for a full early payoff, first position only and a cap of 15% of annual revenue; your offer shows the exact amount, term and total cost before you sign. See the business term loan page.

How it sizes for a veterinary practice

The 15% cap is the number to run first. Take a veterinary practice with roughly $120,000 in monthly revenue, which is $1,440,000 a year:

StepIllustration
Annual revenue (illustrative)$1,440,000
15% cap on the loan amount$216,000
A request of$80,000
Fits under the cap?Yes
Principal alone over 52 weeks$1,538 a week (interest and the 12 to 18-month schedule are in your offer)

Arithmetic on published terms, not an offer. If your request is larger than the cap, a line of credit or a smaller first loan may fit better.

Signs a term loan fits a veterinary practice

The equipment adds procedures currently referred out
Steady card deposits cover the weekly payment
Drug wholesaler debits are current

If you already carry a daily-debit advance, see refinancing an existing advance; a term loan has to be in first position.

Common questions

How large a term loan can a veterinary practice take?

Yes. A practice billing about $120,000 a month can size up to about $216,000 under the 15% cap. Merchant Fund Express shows the exact amount, schedule and total cost in your offer before you sign.

Are payments daily or weekly?

Weekly. A weekly payment leaves most of each week’s deposits in the account instead of debiting every morning.

What if I pay it off early?

A full early payoff earns a 50% discount on the remaining interest.
