Business Financing
What is Equipment Financing?
Equipment financing is a versatile solution tailored for the acquisition of various business assets, including but not limited to commercial meat grinders, saws, and refrigeration. Opting for an equipment loan is often the most straightforward method for businesses to upgrade or expand their operational tools.
How It Works
We've established a strategic partnership with ClickLease, a renowned third-party financier specializing in equipment financing. This collaboration is designed to offer you a seamless and flexible leasing solution that allows you to access the essential equipment your business needs without the upfront financial burden. With ClickLease, you can enjoy the convenience of manageable payment terms, which, upon completion, grant you full ownership of the equipment. This means that once you've settled the balance, the equipment you've been using and relying on for your business operations becomes yours outright, without any additional steps or complications.
This approach not only facilitates your access to the latest industry-standard tools but also supports your business's growth by turning leasing expenses into a long-term investment in your company's assets.
Difference Between Financing and Leasing
Business lines of credit traditionally have lower interest rates and closing costs, but have pretty strict repercussions if you exceed your limit or miss a payment. Traditional loans are usually used for one time, specific, larger purchases, while lines of credit are best for repeated spending or cash flow. This doesn’t mean you can’t make large purchases with a line of credit, but often, traditional loans are better suited for these types of expenditures.

Who Qualifies?
Most businesses in good standing can qualify for equipment financing loans. It can actually be a good option if your credit score is on the lower end because the equipment you’re financing acts as the collateral. The details of how much and for how long depends on the type of equipment and how much it costs.
Lenders are interested in securing a loan, so when you’re financing equipment, they’re often not as concerned with your borrowing history because the equipment acts as collateral.

Things to Know About Equipment Financing
Like most loans, you’ll need to provide the financial health of your business along with your credit score. Most equipment lenders will also ask for information about the equipment you’re looking to buy and a quote of how much it will cost. When your business doesn’t have enough cash to purchase a new piece of equipment upfront, equipment loans are the best option. You use them the same way an individual would use a car loan, and then pay them back via monthly payments.
How much you can borrow depends on what you’re looking to finance, and the price will dictate the terms and interest of the loan. The equipment itself acts as collateral, so you won’t need to put up additional collateral to secure the loan. This self-secured loan is often easier for some businesses to qualify for.

Different Types of Business Lines of Credit
Some equipment sellers offer the option to lend equipment directly to their customers and charge a monthly rental fee, much like renting an apartment. With this option, you can only use the equipment while you’re paying for it. If you chose to finance equipment with a loan, you’ll own the equipment when you’re done paying for it. If you know your business will need the equipment for a while, financing with a loan is usually a better investment.
