When it may fit

Our assessment of the published programs

  • Operating South Carolina businesses seeking community credit and ongoing coaching.

What to weigh carefully

  • Startup applications are currently not accepted; the page defines that pause as under two years operating despite other product wording.
  • The lender also states that new applications from health care and social assistance businesses in NAICS category 62 are paused.
  • Larger-loan rates generally float with Prime; confirm which terms and fees apply.

Questions before you accept an offer

  1. Is my operating history currently eligible for applications?
  2. Is the offer fixed-rate or variable-rate and what security applies?

Ask for written terms. Compare net cash received, total repayment, fees, payment timing and early-payoff costs for the same financing need.

Prepare your comparison

Use the same questions and figures for each offer you receive.
