Why contractors choose revenue-based financing

You front the costs

Materials and payroll go out weeks before the progress payment comes in.

Equipment is the business

Excavators, lifts and trucks can be financed against the equipment itself.

Bigger bids need capacity

Access to capital lets you bid on the job instead of passing on it.

Questions, answered

Something else on your mind? Ask an advisor.

Can contractors qualify for revenue-based financing?
Yes. Most Credible Lending programs look for at least one year in business, $10,000 or more in monthly revenue and a 625+ credit score. We review construction & trades financials with the industry's cash-flow patterns in mind.
How is revenue-based financing different from a loan?
Instead of fixed installments, you repay a set percentage of revenue until an agreed total is reached. Payment size moves with your sales.
Can contractors get financing against invoices?
Yes. Invoice financing can advance up to 90% of open invoices to creditworthy customers.
