What is a working capital loan?
A working capital loan is a type of financing designed to help support the running costs of a company. This could include smoothing cash flow, providing liquidity, paying rent or making payroll. Our working capital loans can be used for most business expenses.
Our goal is to get you your money quickly and give you the flexibility to spend the money where you need it.

How do I apply?
You can start your application by clicking on the green apply now button in the upper right-hand corner of the screen. This will take you to our application form.
The first section of the form is about business information. We need to know things like your company name, business address and the type of business you run. This is all to help us learn more about the company we are loaning to, as well as aiding us with our due diligence.
Section two is called owner information. As the name implies it is all about you. We collect some basic information to get to know you better and understand who we are loaning money to.
The last section is the financial review where we ask you some simple questions about money. This helps us understand your financial situation and gives us an idea of the risk involved in issuing a loan.
At Idea Financial we are dedicated to making loans available to the largest number of businesses possible. As such, we have very simple eligibility requirements. If you pass the 4 tests outlined below, we can consider you for financing.
You must have been in business for at least 3 years. This shows us your company is stable and able to sustain itself. It also means you have enough financial data for our next requirement.
Your business must generate at least $15,000 in monthly revenue. This helps show that you can afford regular loan payments. It also indicates that you are able to sustain a stable revenue stream.
