Business Lines of Credit
A business line of credit gives you access to funds up to a limit set by the financing provider: you draw what you need, repay, and can typically draw again. ClickFundBiz helps you explore line of credit options from third-party providers with a single application.
Financing options are provided by participating financing providers and are subject to their eligibility requirements, approval and terms.

What to expect
How the process works
One application. Multiple possibilities. ClickFundBiz works as a broker on your behalf; financing providers make all credit decisions.
Apply once
Tell us about your business, your financing needs and your timeline. One application covers every option we explore for you.
We identify providers
Our team reviews your request and identifies participating financing providers whose programs and criteria may fit your business.
Compare any offers
If a provider extends an offer, you review its terms directly (amount, payments, cost and conditions) and decide what works for you.
The provider funds
The financing provider you choose completes its own underwriting and, if it approves your application, funds your business directly.
Credit limits, draw terms, repayment schedules and fees vary by provider and applicant. The provider that issues a line of credit sets its own rules for draws, repayment and renewals; those details appear in any offer you receive.
Underwriting
Factors providers often consider
Each financing provider sets its own criteria and makes its own decisions. These are factors providers commonly review, not requirements set by ClickFundBiz, and not a checklist that promises any outcome.
Commonly reviewed
- Business bank account activity and average balances
- Monthly revenue and its consistency over time
- Time in business
- Credit profile of the business and its owners
- Existing debt and how much credit is already in use
- Industry and seasonality of the business
Worth keeping in mind
- You generally pay interest or fees only on what you draw, but fee structures vary (some providers charge draw or maintenance fees)
- A revolving line requires discipline; it works best for short-term needs rather than long-term investments
- Providers may periodically review the line and can adjust the limit under their terms
- Repayment schedules can be weekly or monthly depending on the provider
- A line of credit is not a substitute for a long-term loan when a large one-time purchase is the goal
Submitting an application does not guarantee approval, funding, or any particular rate or term.
