Improve Your Fundability

Have you ever applied for a business credit card and received an automated and instant approval? Lenders and credit issuers have an unpublished set of standards in their Artificial Intelligence systems that must be met for business credit approval.

How fundable your business is will determine if you get automated approvals, or automated denials. Fundable means that the public records and the information on the loan application match, and the data is accurate, and consistent.

Some fundability factors include:

  • The type of business entity. Start with a corporation or LLC.
  • The type of phone number you use: business or cell phone?
  • If your business phone number is listed in certain directories
  • The type of business address you use for your business
  • The type of business licensing your business. Is an occupation license required?
  • The consistency and congruency of the public records to your application data
  • They types of business lending references you have
  • Whether your bank account is set up under the business
  • The way your website and email are set up
  • Your scores under the company EIN, the DUNS, and BIN

Even if your business is fundable

Even if you are fundable, most business loans applications get denied because of potential fraud concerns, not because you don’t qualify

Business Lenders

Business Lenders combat fraud by matching your company and application details against other data they have from places such as:

  • LexisNexis
  • Dun & Bradstreet
  • Experian
  • The Small Business Financial Exchange
  • Equifax
  • ChexSystems

Business applies for Money

When your business applies for money your business credit is being used to determine:

  • If you’ll get approved
