Every clinic has a quiet stretch

Veterinary demand has a rhythm. Spring and summer bring heartworm testing, flea and tick visits, and outdoor injuries. Many practices then see appointment volume soften in late fall and winter, especially around the holidays when pet owners delay elective care. Rural and mixed-animal practices may follow the calving or foaling calendar instead.

Your fixed costs don't follow that rhythm. Slow-season funding for veterinary practices helps carry rent, payroll and supply orders through the dip.

Planning for the dip

Look back at last year's deposits month by month. Mark the weeks where revenue fell and note what bills landed then. That picture tells you roughly how much cushion you need and for how long.

Common slow-season uses

Choosing a product

We offer working capital, business line of credit, merchant cash advance, equipment financing and revenue-based financing from $25,000 to $5,000,000. A line of credit can work well for seasonal swings since you draw only what the slow weeks require. Revenue-based financing for veterinary practices ties payments to revenue moving through your account, which some owners like for uneven months. See how a line of credit compares with a merchant cash advance.

What we need

About three months of business bank statements. No tax returns. FICO 500+ is considered, and sole proprietors can apply. We work with established practices with steady deposits. Your offer shows the full repayment amount and schedule before you accept, so you can check it against your slow-season numbers.

Apply before the slowdown

The best time to line up seasonal funding is before the quiet months arrive. The application takes about 5 minutes with a soft credit pull to start, and qualified businesses can be funded in as little as 24 hours.

Frequently Asked Questions

When is the slow season for a vet clinic?

It varies by practice. Many small-animal clinics see a dip in late fall and winter, while rural practices may follow livestock seasons. Your own deposit history is the best guide.

Will my lower winter deposits hurt my application?

We review about three months of business bank statements and look at your overall deposit pattern and existing obligations. Seasonal swings are normal for many practices.

Can I use slow-season funding to stock preventives?

Yes. Many clinics buy heartworm, flea and tick products ahead of spring demand.

How much can I get?

Funding ranges from $25,000 to $5,000,000, based mainly on deposits and existing obligations.

Is there a hard credit check?

We start with a soft credit pull, which does not affect your score.

Winter Payroll $24,000.00
Clinic Rent $11,000.00
Preventive Stock $16,000.00
Dental Promo $7,500.00
