Choosing funding
How do I know which funding type fits?
Start with what the money pays for and how it will come back. The six funding types compared sets them side by side.
Does a merchant cash advance count as borrowing?
No. A merchant cash advance is not a loan: a funder buys part of your future receipts and collects them until an agreed total is remitted. How advances work.
Can business funding pay the owner?
Business funding is for business purposes. Wages paid through payroll are a business cost; personal spending generally is not, and partners set rules on how proceeds may be used. Ask before you sign.
Is a personal loan a sensible way to fund the business?
Graniteford Finance does not arrange personal loans. Mixing personal and business debt can complicate your records and your liability; talk to your accountant before doing it.
Can a Wyoming LLC borrow for the business?
Yes, LLCs are a common borrower type. Partners will check that the LLC is active with the state; checking Wyoming good standing explains how to confirm it first.
Sending a request
What does the form ask?
Your name, email, phone and the company name, plus the consent wording. It does not ask for a Social Security number or account numbers.
Does sending a request affect my credit?
Graniteford Finance does not run a credit check when you send the form. A partner that reviews your request may check credit; it should tell you what kind of check before you authorize it.
Will I be approved?
No one can say before a partner reviews the request. Sending a request does not guarantee approval, an amount or terms.
Do you arrange SBA loans?
No. SBA-backed loans are made by participating lenders. The SBA's Wyoming District Office is listed in our local resource guide.
