Possible uses
Business expenses to describe
Seasonal inventory
Advance orders may secure stock but also tie up cash before trading starts. Use past sales and remaining inventory to define the amount you need to purchase.
Equipment
Servicing or replacement may need completing before the business can handle peak demand. Include setup and the time needed to make the equipment ready.
Operating expenses
Temporary staffing, premises and supplies can begin before receipts build. Identify the period to be covered and account for quieter weeks after the peak.

The budget behind the request
Review the complete annual trading cycle, including the months after the season ends. A financing payment schedule may continue beyond the period in which most sales are made.
A few things to know
About this referral service
Information sharing and referral payments
Funding partners may purchase your application details from us and contact you about potential financing. We may refer a request to up to five partners and are paid even if it is not funded; we charge no application fee.
Approval and available terms
Providers make their own decisions after considering the information they require. Submission alone promises neither approval nor a particular financing amount.
Provider timing
Do not treat the requested timing as a delivery commitment from a funding partner. Review can involve supporting documents and additional checks.
Contact consent and mobile verification
Before submission, review the sharing terms and the permission for partner communications. A one-time code checks access to your phone rather than replacing the consent review.
