A line of credit is unlike a traditional loan where you’d be given a lump sum of money that you’d pay back with interest in monthly payments.
A working capital line of credit lets a business borrow money up to the amount of working capital the business has (calculated by subtracting the company’s current liabilities from its assets). With a working capital line of credit, just like other kinds of lines of credit, interest is only charged on the amount of money borrowed.

Applying for a business line of credit is easy. You’ll decide which line of credit is right for your business and then fill out an application either online or with a business banker.
