Possible uses
Business expenses to describe
Materials
Supplier lead times and minimum quantities can bring purchasing forward. Work from the production specification and existing stock to define the order.
Facility capacity
Additional power, ventilation or floor space may be needed before a machine can run. Separate that setup work from the recurring costs of operating the larger production area.

Costs and customer receipts
Map raw-material purchases, work in progress and customer payment terms as separate stages. Finished production is not the same as cash received for the order.

A few things to know
About this referral service
Information sharing and referral payments
The referral process involves selling submitted application information to funding partners, with no more than five receiving one request. We receive partner payments whether the request is funded or not and impose no application charge on you.
Approval and available terms
The requested amount expresses what the business wants to explore. It is not an approved amount, and a funding partner may offer different terms or no financing at all.
Provider timing
Submission and receipt of funds are different stages. Any timeline must be confirmed with the funding provider after it has reviewed the request.
Contact consent and mobile verification
Read the disclosures presented with the application rather than relying only on this page. Submission includes a separate contact-consent review and a mobile verification step.
