Need a Business Term Loan? Check the 600–680+ Credit and $100K Revenue Benchmarks

If your business needs a defined amount of capital for expansion, inventory, renovation or another planned expense, a business term loan may be one financing category worth evaluating.

Thomas Abelsen’s business funding guide identifies typical term loan qualifications of approximately 600 to 680+ personal credit, at least one year in business, approximately $100,000 or more in annual revenue and positive cash flow.

Those benchmarks help funding providers determine whether the operating business appears capable of supporting scheduled repayment. A lender may also review business bank statements, existing debt and other financial information before making a decision.

Before applying, calculate the amount you actually need and document the use of funds. Owners should also know their annual revenue, current Experian FICO score, time in business and balances on open business credit cards, lines of credit and loans.

If your business has approximately $100,000 or more in annual revenue and you are actively looking for capital, connect with EIN Business Funding to discuss whether a term loan or another financing option may fit.
