Possible uses
Business expenses to describe
Fabrication equipment
A press brake, welding unit or cutting machine can require tooling, extraction and installation. Include those supporting costs rather than budgeting for the main unit alone.
Raw materials
Sheet, plate and bar purchases may be committed before a customer makes a progress payment. Use the job specification and supplier quotation to identify the actual material requirement.
Shop-floor capacity
Lifting equipment, storage and additional workstations can affect how a large job moves through the shop. Separate one-time layout changes from labor and utility costs that recur.

A few things to know
About this referral service
Information sharing and referral payments
The referral process involves selling submitted application information to funding partners, with no more than five receiving one request. We receive partner payments whether the request is funded or not and impose no application charge on you.
Approval and available terms
The requested amount expresses what the business wants to explore. It is not an approved amount, and a funding partner may offer different terms or no financing at all.
Provider timing
Submission and receipt of funds are different stages. Any timeline must be confirmed with the funding provider after it has reviewed the request.
Contact consent and mobile verification
Read the disclosures presented with the application rather than relying only on this page. Submission includes a separate contact-consent review and a mobile verification step.
