Why Staples Business Loans?

The current funding process for a small business is time consuming, complex and often does not result in the small business actually getting a loan. Small businesses contact at least 3 different financial institutions for help and spend an average of 33 hours applying for credit, according to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York Small Business Credit Survey, spring 2014. Staples Business Loans allows small business owners to apply once and receive multiple funding options.

The new Staples Business Loans service uses Lendio’s great technology and eliminates complexity and frustration for small businesses seeking financing. It includes:

  • Broad set of funding products such as lines of credit, SBA loans, term loans, merchant cash advances, ACH advances, equipment loans, commercial real estate loans, factoring and more;
  • More than twenty different funding options for loans ranging from $2,500 to $1 million;
  • The ability to see all funding options available with just one application;
  • Personal attention from a loan advisor to guide small businesses through the entire process;
  • Impartial advice to help understand the pros and cons of each option so small businesses choose what is right for their needs;
  • Fast funding within days, not weeks.

Staples evaluated more than 30 financial services firms before teaming up with Lendio.
