Small Business Funding When You Need It

Lack of cash flow is one of the most commonly cited problems faced by small business owners, especially for seasonal businesses or businesses that rely on invoicing or have long accounts receivable periods.

Sometimes, small businesses need an infusion of working capital to keep up with industry changes and continue to grow. Funding is available from traditional lenders like banks and federal funding programs, but the application process for these funding options can take months and there’s no guarantee of approval. Most applicants are rejected, especially for small loans for small businesses, businesses that operate in high-risk industries, businesses with low credit, and businesses that can’t provide collateral.

With a simpler application, faster turnaround, and flexible approval requirements, Greenbox Capital can fund more small businesses in as little as one business day. We offer a variety of small business funding options from as little as $3,000 up to $500,000. We fund all industries, including attorneys, auto dealers, construction companies, dental practices, manufacturers, medical practices, restaurants, retailers, and more.

Small Business Funding Rates

Small business funding rates depend on the type of alternative small business funding you receive. Most alternative small business funding options use a factor rate instead of a traditional interest rate. Factor rates are simple decimal figures that show how much “extra” you will owe on the original amount of the loan and are determined based on your risk assessment.
