Issues with personal credit
Being out of covenant or asked to leave their bank

FAQs

Most of what business owners ask before applying - who qualifies, how much you can borrow, and how the process works - is answered below. If anything is still unclear, we're happy to talk it through.

Does working with MerchandiseLending.com cost me anything?

Not a cent. Our lending partners pay for our service out of the fees they already charge, so your rate and fees are exactly the same as if you went to the lender directly, never higher. What you gain is a lending specialist in your corner who knows which lending programs say yes to businesses like yours, helps prepare your application, and matches you with the program that fits, so you don't have to search on your own. Your lender makes the final credit decision and is named in your financing agreement.

How much money can my business borrow?

Financing runs from $10 Thousand to $10 Million, depending on the product: short-term loans from $10 Thousand to $1.5 Million, business lines of credit from $10 Thousand to $500 Thousand, equipment financing from $10 Thousand to $5 Million, and inventory lines of credit from $2 Million to $10 Million. Short-term loans and business lines of credit are generally sized at 10% to 15% of gross annual revenue.

Does applying affect my credit score?

Usually not. Inventory line of credit applications typically don't involve a credit pull, though a lender may still run one. Applying for a short-term loan or business line of credit uses only a soft pull, which doesn't affect your score. On some larger equipment financing deals a lender may run a hard pull, but only after you've been approved and chosen to move forward, and always with notice first.

Who is this financing for?

Our inventory lines of credit are built for retailers, e-⁠commerce brands, wholesalers, and manufacturers that carry saleable inventory. Short-term loans, business lines of credit, and equipment financing are open to a wide range of established businesses. Lenders do restrict some industries, so if you're unsure whether yours qualifies, your lending specialist can tell you right away.

What happens after I apply?

A lending specialist will be in touch within one business day to talk through your goals and match you with the right lending program. From there:

Inventory lines of credit: you'll send your application and financials, and the lender typically responds with a term sheet within a couple of days. Once you sign it, underwriting begins, including an independent appraisal and field exam of your inventory. Upfront fees of about $35,000 apply only to inventory lines of credit and cover legal work, due diligence, the appraisal and field exam, and UCC filings; the other products have their own fees, shown on each product page. Closing typically takes a month or more.

Short-term loans and business lines of credit: you'll see the amount, term, and payment before you sign anything. Decisions often come the same day, and funding can follow in as little as 24 hours.

Equipment financing: approvals often come in 24 to 48 hours, the lender pays your equipment vendor directly, and deals usually close in 1 to 3 weeks.

What documents will I need?

It depends on the product. You'll receive a checklist of exactly what's needed, and your lending specialist will help you through the process from start to finish.

Inventory lines of credit: because these are larger facilities, lenders look more closely. Expect to provide a detailed inventory report by item and cost (in Excel), your year-end financial statements for the last three years (or for as long as you've been in business), year-to-date financials compared with the same period last year, 12-month projections, current receivable and payable agings, and a personal financial statement for each owner of 20% or more.

Short-term loans and business lines of credit: usually just a short online application, your last four months of business bank statements, and ID verification.

Equipment financing: for smaller purchases, usually just a one-page application and your equipment invoice, quote, or bill of sale. Larger requests may call for tax returns or financial statements.
