Understanding cash flow lending

What is cash flow lending? 

Cash flow lending often comes in the form of a short-term loan that small business owners might use for a business purpose. This could mean covering a temporary shortfall for paying wages, investing in new equipment or taking up a business opportunity that’s too good to miss. 

How is cash flow lending different to traditional bank loans? 

Traditional bank loans require certain lending criteria which may include checking the borrower’s cash flow statements and business plans. Bank loans also commonly rely on securing the loan with an asset. So if a business owner puts up a vehicle or their family home as security, that asset may be at risk. Traditional bank loans can also take longer to process and may not be suitable if funds are needed quickly. 

When a small business needs a cash flow boost, it often needs it fast. That’s where a Prospa Line of Credit (LOC) can be useful. A Prospa Business Line of Credit offers ongoing access to funds to help small businesses confidently manage cash flow fluctuations. It’s designed to be faster, simpler, tailored to small business, and clear.
