Eyes open
Funding is a tool for a bold move, and every tool can cut. Here is where each of the six can hurt, and what keeps it from hurting you.
The downsideThe payments are fixed for one to two years, and they are owed whether or not the move they paid for works out.
The guardBuild the payment into the plan with room to spare, and ask before signing what paying it off early would save.
The downsideA term of up to 24 months means larger payments than a longer loan of the same size, falling due while the money is still at work.
The guardName the money that will repay it — the season, the contract, the invoice — before you borrow, not after.
The downsideThe equipment usually secures the financing, and a term longer than its working life means still paying for a machine that has stopped earning.
The guardMatch the term — one to five years here — to how long the equipment will genuinely be in service.
The downsideRepayment comes out by daily or weekly ACH on a fixed schedule, in the quiet week as surely as the busy one.
The guardSet the debit against your slowest week's deposits, not your average week's, and borrow no more than that carries.
The downsideA line that is always there can end up paying for things that will never pay it back, one small draw at a time.
The guardDecide what a draw is for before you open the line, and repay each draw from what that draw earned.
The downsideIt is priced on the full amount, so repaying early may not reduce what you owe.
The guardAsk for the total payback in dollars, and ask in writing whether paying early changes it. If it does not, plan for the full amount.
None of this is a reason not to borrow. It is the reason to borrow on purpose, at the right size, with the exit planned.

How it works
Quick where it can be. Careful where it has to be.
Step 01
Tell us what you are funding and how much it needs. The application asks for an amount, how to reach you and a few questions about the business — no documents, no fee.
Step 02
Your application goes to our funding partner and a specialist takes it to lenders who fund businesses like yours. What comes back is laid out so the costs can be compared, downside included.
Step 03
Accept the offer that fits the move, or none of them. Once approved, the funds can be in the account in as little as 24 hours.
Our word
Asking an owner to be brave with money means being straight with them about it.
The network's figures
These are totals for the lending network Valor Business Finance works through, not for Valor alone.
When you are ready
The application is on a page of its own, and at the foot of every programme page.
The application
About two minutes: the amount, how to reach you and a few questions about the business. Free, and nothing is agreed until you accept an offer.
