Is the Pursuit SmartLoan right for me?

 

With the Pursuit SmartLoan, you’ll find business loan requirements that increase your odds of approval, even if you haven’t qualified with another lender. If you meet the following requirements, you will be automatically approved for a SmartLoan:

  • Must be in business for two or more years
  • Business has at least two employees
  • Cash flow is positive or break-even
  • A personal credit score of 640 or higher

  • No prior bankruptcies for you or your business

If you or your business don’t meet some of these requirements, you could still qualify with Pursuit. We encourage you to submit a small business loan application and work with our team to determine which loan is right for you, or if you qualify for free advisory services to strengthen your business for future financing.

Please note that we do not lend to money-service businesses; ‘passive’ businesses engaged in owning, purchasing, leasing, or re-selling real estate or other assets; or those operating in sin industries.

What can you use the Pursuit SmartLoan for?

 

You can use a SmartLoan for nearly any business purpose. Many business owners have successfully used it to support immediate financing needs, like holiday inventory or covering the cost of starting work on a contract. It can also be used to consolidate or refinance high-cost business debt, to support expansion to new locations for your business, or for a working capital boost during your slow season. The SmartLoan is a great financing solution for:

  • Working capital
  • Equipment purchase
  • Technology upgrades
  • Debt refinance
  • Leasehold improvements
  • And more

Please note that SmartLoan proceeds cannot be used for payment of back taxes owed; settlements of lawsuits, trade disputes, fines, or penalties; or personal, non-business uses.
