Why Funding

Grow on Your Timeline

The businesses that grow are often the ones that act when the opportunity is in front of them. Here's how smart capital can help you invest in growth now, and why getting it can be simpler than you think.

The Growth Mindset

Why growing businesses use capital

Businesses of every size use financing as a normal part of growing. In the Federal Reserve's 2025 Small Business Credit Survey, 86% of small employer firms said they use financing regularly. Instead of waiting years to save for the next step, funding lets you put money to work now on things that can pay you back over time: more inventory, more staff, better equipment, more customers.

Used with a plan, business funding helps you:

  • Say "yes" to big orders, new contracts, and seasonal demand
  • Keep your own cash reserves on hand for day-to-day operations
  • Move on time-sensitive opportunities, like bulk discounts, a great location, or a key hire
  • Build a relationship with a funding partner who knows your business

Industry Insight

Small business drives the economy. Smart funding keeps it moving.

Small businesses are the backbone of the U.S. economy, and more of them are looking beyond the traditional bank branch for capital. Online and alternative funding has grown because it gives owners more ways to get the working capital they need.

Why owners choose alternative funding: In the Fed's survey, firms that applied at online lenders most often pointed to a better chance of being approved, quick service, and not needing collateral. Source: Federal Reserve Banks, 2025 Report on Employer Firms (2024 SBCS), PDF ↗

Small businesses are defined as firms with fewer than 500 employees. The Small Business Credit Survey is a convenience sample of small employer firms. Figures are as published by their sources.

Growing the Smart Way

Make every dollar work for you

The most successful owners treat funding as an investment. A few simple habits help capital do its best work.

Start with the goal

Know what the funds are for, whether it's a new hire, an equipment upgrade, or a marketing push, and how it helps revenue.

Match the term to the use

Short-term needs fit short-term products. Long-life assets fit longer terms.

FAQ

Questions about funding growth

How can business funding help my company grow?

Funding can help you act on opportunities sooner instead of waiting to build up savings. Owners commonly use capital to purchase inventory, hire staff, upgrade equipment, invest in marketing, open new locations, or smooth out cash flow. The right product depends on your goals, and our team will help you compare options.

What is a merchant cash advance?

A merchant cash advance provides working capital in exchange for a portion of your business's future sales. Because it is based on your sales, it can be an option for businesses that may not fit traditional bank criteria. Terms vary, and we provide clear terms before you commit to any agreement.

Most applications receive an initial response within 24-48 hours.
