What is a business line of credit and how does it work?
A business line of credit (LOC) is a type of small business loan that provides access to revolving credit. Like a credit card, a LOC for business will have a certain limit. Your business will have the flexibility to draw, repay, and then redraw cash from this limit. You pay interest only on the amount withdrawn.
A business line of credit differs from a standard business loan in that a business loan provides you with a lump-sum of money upfront. You are then required to pay off this sum of money over a fixed term.
A line of credit, however, has no fixed term. As long as you are under the limit and keep up with payments, a LOC allows you to withdraw money anytime you want.
What do you need to be approved for a line of credit?
Requirements for a line of credit will depend on each lender. However, lenders typically look at the following few factors when approving a LOC:
Collateral: As mentioned previously, for a secured business line of credit, the lender will require you to put up some sort of asset.
Business history: The longer your business has been in operation for, the easier it is for lenders to approve your line of credit..
Profitability:Lenders will check for cash flow and income statements to verify business profitability.
Credit score: Having a good credit score is especially important if you want a business line of credit with no personal guarantee. Similar to an unsecured real estate line of credit or even your regular credit card, lenders scrutinize personal credit scores a lot more with an unsecured loan, since they are the ones taking on the risk.
What can a business line of credit be used for?
A business line of credit can be used to cover any type of business-related expenses. There are not a lot of restrictions besides using it for business purposes. It is, however, typically used as a short term line of credit for fulfilling immediate or temporary business needs. These needs can include:
- Fulfilling payroll or staffing requirements
- Paying suppliers
- Increasing inventory
- Funding a marketing campaign
- Repair or upgrade equipment
- Cover seasonal lulls in cash flow
- Emergency funds
What are the benefits?
One of the key benefits of a business line of credit is the access to cash. As a small business, working capital line of credit provides a lifeline to continue operations and ultimately stay in business.
A small business working capital loan provides funding so businesses can operate and meet payment requirements. You'll see this type of loan packaged as a line of credit, merchant cash advance, or a traditional bank loan. Working capital loan rates vary and will depend on the type of loan you get.
Besides covering shortfalls, another benefit with a business line of credit is to grow your company. If an opportunity arises, business cash advances allow you to invest in that opportunity.
Secured vs. unsecured line of credit
Perhaps you're wondering, how much can I get from a business line of credit? The answer depends in large part on whether a business LOC is secured or unsecured. The differences between the two are as follows:
Secured line of credit: A secured business line of credit requires collateral to guarantee the loan. Collateral can include anything from inventory and accounts receivable to equipment or any other business assets. For example, a business equity line of credit utilizes real estate for collateral. If for any reason you can't pay off your loan, the bank will seize your collateral. Because there is a guarantee, a secured business line of credit generally has more favorable loan features, such as higher loan limits and lower interest rates.
Unsecured line of credit: Business lines of credit without personal guarantee are considered unsecured. This means you do not need to put up any assets to guarantee your loan, as you would with a secured line. Since the lender is taking on more risk, the borrower will pay for it through higher interest rates. Loan limits tend to also be lower with an unsecured line.
