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.

1

Apply once

Tell us about your business, your financing needs and your timeline. One application covers every option we explore for you.

2

We identify providers

Our team reviews your request and identifies participating financing providers whose programs and criteria may fit your business.

3

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.

4

The provider funds

The financing provider you choose completes its own underwriting and, if it approves your application, funds your business directly.

Equipment financing amounts, terms, rates and structures vary by provider, applicant and the equipment being financed. Providers typically ask for a quote or invoice for the equipment, and the offer you receive reflects that specific purchase.

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

  • The equipment itself: type, price, age and whether it is new or used
  • A vendor quote, invoice or purchase agreement for the equipment
  • Time in business and operating history
  • Revenue and cash flow available to support payments
  • Credit profile of the business and its owners
  • Industry and how central the equipment is to operations

Worth keeping in mind

  • The financed equipment typically serves as collateral for the financing
  • Some providers finance used equipment; others limit programs to new equipment, so eligibility varies
  • Align the financing term with the useful life of the equipment
  • Providers may offer loan or lease structures; ownership, end-of-term options and tax treatment differ, so review the structure carefully
  • Soft costs like delivery, installation or training may or may not be financeable depending on the provider

Submitting an application does not guarantee approval, funding, or any particular rate or term.

FAQs

Common questions

Straight answers about how this type of financing typically works and how our broker process applies.

Do I need to pick out the equipment before applying?
It helps. Most providers want a quote, invoice or purchase agreement identifying the equipment and its price, since the offer is built around that specific purchase. If you're still comparing vendors, you can start the conversation and add the quote when you have it.
Can used equipment be financed?
Often, yes: many providers finance used equipment, though some restrict age, condition or equipment categories. Whether a particular piece qualifies is decided by each provider under its own program rules.
Is a down payment required?
That depends on the provider and the offer. Some programs finance a large share of the equipment cost; others expect the business to contribute a portion. Any offer you receive states what the provider requires; nothing is standard across providers.
What's the difference between an equipment loan and a lease?
With a loan, your business generally owns the equipment and repays the financing over time. With a lease, the structure, end-of-term options and ownership vary by agreement. Providers offer different structures with different cost and tax implications, so review the specific terms and consult your tax advisor about your situation.
