What Are Debt Options?

Debt options are finance products that enable businesses to access capital by borrowing money. Common products include:

Term Loans:

Fixed‐term loans with regular repayments, ideal for funding long term investments or infrastructure improvements.

Revolving Credit Facilities:

Flexible credit lines that allow businesses to draw funds as needed, much like a business overdraft.

Invoice Finance:

Facilities such as factoring or discounting, which enable companies to unlock cash tied up in outstanding invoices.

Merchant Cash Advances:

Short-term funding based on future card sales, offering quick access to cash but typically at a higher cost.

Why Should Service Providers Care?

Integrating debt options can:

Enhance Your Client Offerings: Help your clients manage cash flow and seize growth opportunities.

Diversify Revenue Streams: By offering these solutions, you can generate additional income through commissions or referral fees.

Position You as an Innovator: Stay ahead of competitors by providing holistic financial solutions that address multiple client needs.

Practical Considerations:

When considering debt options, ensure that:

Your team understands the products well.

You have the right partnerships or access to reliable providers.

You assess the regulatory and compliance environment to safeguard both your business and your clients.
