Your questions about business funding referrals
What is the relationship with providers?
Your request can be referred to a maximum of five funding partners through the sale of your application information. Partners compensate us even when financing is not provided, and we do not ask you to pay an application fee.
What happens during provider review?
Completing the application is separate from receiving a funding decision. Providers determine which requests they can consider and what obligations an offer would carry.
How does provider processing work?
There is no fixed funding time offered through this referral page. The provider’s checks and contractual requirements control when any financing can proceed.
What does the contact consent cover?
Use the linked policies to understand the referral and handling of application information. The form separately explains partner communications and requires mobile verification.
