FAQs

We offer both business term loans and business lines of credit. When you apply with us, you’ll use one application and we’ll evaluate which product best fits your business’s cash flow and funding needs.

Our term loan can offer from $5,000 to $250,000 in funding, with term lengths ranging from 18 to 24 months.

Our line of credit has a maximum limit of $100,000. A line of credit is a form of revolving credit, so as you pay down your balance, those funds will become available to use again.

OnDeck offers an unsecured line of credit. Our term loan is secured, but to provide maximum flexibility, we don’t require any specific amount, type or value of collateral. Plus, there is no appraisal or specific assets required.

Instead, we secure our term loans by placing a general lien on the assets of the business and they’re backed by a personal guarantee. We don’t take personal assets of the guarantors as collateral.

To qualify for funding from OnDeck, your business should have the following characteristics:

• Minimum one year in business.
• Minimum of $100,000 in annual revenue.
• Minimum 625 personal FICO score of the business owner.
• Business checking account.

When determining eligibility, we’ll perform a soft credit check on the business owner’s personal credit.^***

Typically, we only require basic information about yourself and your business. We may ask for:

• Business Tax ID.
• Last three months of business bank statements.
• Social Security number of business owner(s).

Our application process is simple and typically takes about 10 minutes. You’ll complete one application, and we’ll evaluate which product is the best fit. You can apply online or over the phone by calling (888) 269-4246.

We work with more than 700 different kinds of businesses including restaurants, auto repair shops, healthcare professionals, contractors and many other service providers.

We don’t serve these restricted industries.

For term loans, your rate will be determined by the health of your business and cash flow. We charge an origination fee of 0% to 4% on your loan, and if you renew you may be eligible for subsequent reductions. For lines of credit, there is a $20 monthly maintenance fee.

No. If you apply for funding from OnDeck, there is no obligation to accept the loan offer. Your loan offer is valid for 30 days, at which time it expires.

We fund term loans through the Automated Clearinghouse (ACH) system. If you’re approved, the funds will be deposited into your business bank as soon as the same day.^†
