Programs and published requirements

Compare the specific program and legal funding entity on your offer. Advertised limits and minimums do not guarantee eligibility or your price.

Business term loans

Starting amount
C$10,000 for fixed-rate loans and C$5,000 for variable-rate loans.
Term and security
Typically secured for up to seven years, not beyond the financed asset’s useful life. Real-estate amortization can extend to twenty-five years depending on property type.
Early repayment
Fixed-rate loans advertise 10% annual prepayment privileges. Variable-rate loans allow partial or full prepayment without penalty and may convert to a fixed rate.
Uses and currency
Business property, equipment and eligible refinancing. Canadian funds only.

Provider sources: Term-loan structures and early payment

Royal Business OperatingLine

Starting limit
C$10,000; approved funds connect to an RBC operating account.
Transfer options
Standard OperatingLine transfers funds one way to the account. OperatingLine PLUS can also automatically use available deposits to repay the line, subject to agreed increments and retained balance.
Pricing and security
The reviewed product page does not establish universal pricing, collateral or guarantee requirements. Obtain a written facility agreement.

Provider sources: OperatingLine and PLUS mechanics

Canada Small Business Financing loan

Published limit
Up to C$1 million in term financing, subject to eligible expenses, program sublimits and credit approval.
Repayment
Fixed or floating-rate payments and up to fifteen-year amortization for eligible asset classes.
Published fees
C$100 application fee, C$175 document-preparation fee and a one-time 2% government registration fee, which may be financed. The 1.25% administration charge is included within the interest rate.
Guarantee distinction
Government risk sharing protects the lender; it does not forgive the borrower’s repayment obligation.

When it may fit

Our assessment of the published programs

  • A Canadian business comparing bank financing for an asset purchase with an operating line for recurring cash-flow needs.

What to weigh carefully

  • Loan term and amortization are different; ask whether a balance remains at maturity.
  • Fixed-rate prepayment privileges are not the same as unrestricted penalty-free repayment.
  • Eligibility, collateral and personal guarantees vary by product and underwriting.

Questions before you accept an offer

  1. Which product and legal agreement applies to my request?
  2. What collateral, guarantees and reporting are required?
  3. What are the interest margin, review fees and account costs?
  4. How much can I prepay, and what is the charge beyond the privilege?
  5. Which CSBFP expenses qualify and what cash contribution is required?

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.
