How it works
Your loan terms will be based on your business’s financial situation and your personal credit score. If you only just meet First Union Lending’s minimum requirements, you’re unlikely to qualify for its low starting rates — and may not qualify for a long-term loan at all. If you have a higher credit score, decent revenue and an established business, you may be able to score a larger loan at a competitive rate.
What do I need to qualify?
You must meet the following requirements at a minimum to qualify for a business loan from First Union Lending:
- At least a 450 personal credit score
- In business for at least three months
- At least $15,000 monthly revenue
- No open bankruptcies
What information do I need to apply?
To complete First Union Lending’s online application, you will need to submit the following information:
- Last month’s revenue
- Annual revenue
- EIN or tax ID number
- Social Security number
- Date of birth
You may also need to submit the last six months of your business bank states and credit card processing statements, if applicable.
What industries does First Union Lending work with?
First Union Lending bills itself as an alternative lender, but it isn’t clear which industries it works with. If your business is involved in a nontraditional field, like cannabis or adult entertainment, reach out to a representative to see if First Union Lending can provide financing.
