A business line of credit is used to fund the short-term working capital needs of your business, whether for a specific project or to assist cash flow as the business waits to get paid for accounts receivable billed out. The line can be a either a drawdown line or a revolving line. Instead of applying for a new loan every time you need capital, a line of credit allows you to borrow, repay, and reuse funds as needed—helping you stay agile and in control of your cash flow.

Drawdown Line of Credit
A drawdown line of credit is where the funds can be accessed as they are needed – by more than one draw – for a window of time. Drawdown lines of credit cannot be accessed again if funds are not repaid.

Revolving Line of Credit
A Revolving Line of Credit that allows funds to be drawn, then repaid, then accessed again for the entire term of the loan, much like a credit card.

Both types of lines of credit require collateral. Since the lines are intended for short-term needs, both lines of credit use short-term assets for collateral, such as Accounts Receivable. Loan to Collateral Values will vary between 65-75%, depending on the collateral used.

What Is a Business Line of Credit?

A business line of credit is a revolving financing solution that allows you to draw funds up to a set limit and only pay interest on what you use.

Unlike traditional loans:

  • You don’t receive a lump sum

Many lenders offer revolving credit solutions to support operations and flexibility for businesses.
