What You Need to Apply

Getting started takes only a few minutes, and most of what a funder asks for comes after you apply rather than before it. Here's what to have ready:

• Time in business: at least three months of operation, with documentation of your sales history
• Basic paperwork: a driver's license, recent business bank statements and a voided business check — most requests from our funders stop there
• No hit to your credit: checking your options does not impact your credit score, so applying costs you nothing to find out what's available
• No personal guarantee required on several of the programs in our network, so a guarantee is not automatic just because you applied
• Speed: funding in as little as 24 hours, with most requests funded within 2-4 business days on average
