Benefits of a Business Credit Line
After applying for a line of credit, you could have funds in one to two weeks if you’re approved. You could get up to $500,000 in funding, which you could then pull on when necessary. It’s there if you need the funds, and if you don’t, it’s nice to know you have it just in case. A huge benefit of a business credit line is that you then only pay interest on and must repay the money you use from your line of credit. To repay you would usually make monthly payments on the amount you’ve borrowed. The term for a line of credit is usually one to two years. One of the coolest things about a business line of credit is that you only pay interest on the funds you use, not the full amount. For example, if you’re approved for a $40,000 business line of credit and you use $20,000 for office upgrades, you’ll just pay interest on that $20,000. Moreover, just like with a credit card, you can use a business credit line for just about anything. It’s good for businesses looking to expand and in need of a little cash to set up a new location, or to buy inventory. It can also be great to have on deck in the event you might need funds unexpectedly. Or it can be good if you expect to experience cash flow issues due to an off-season or something of the like.
