How long does funding take?
Some products (i.e., working capital, lines of credit) can fund in as little as 24–48 hours.3 SBA loans and larger term loans may take 1–6 weeks, depending on documentation.
Does applying affect my credit score?
Your credit score helps SBL match you to financing providers who cater to your profile. Exploring your financing options with us does not impact your credit score. 3 When applying for financing, our financing partners use a soft credit pull for matching, which does not impact your score. If you proceed with a financing provider, they may perform a hard credit inquiry as part of funding.
What documents do I need?
Requirements vary by financing provider, but commonly requested documents include:
- Signed application
- At least 3 months of business bank statements
- Copy of ID and business license (if applicable)
- Some longer-term products will require tax returns (business and/or personal) and financial statements (P&L, balance sheet)
Are there fees to use SBL?
No, customers are not charged a fee to use SBL. We match you with your best options free of charge. SBL may receive compensation from a financing provider if you accept their offer, but this does not increase your cost.
Is my information secure?
Yes. We use bank-level encryption and security standards to protect your data.
