Business Financing

Business Financing

Funding structures that keep a business running and growing : working capital, term financing, revolving credit, and more.

Business financing covers the everyday and strategic funding needs of an operating company: covering payroll, buying inventory, investing in growth, and managing the timing gaps between money going out and coming in.

Each structure below works differently and suits different situations. Start with the guide that matches your need, or read the hub overview to compare approaches.

Choosing between structures

The main distinction is usually between funding for a defined, one-time investment (term structures) and funding for ongoing, unpredictable needs (lines, working capital, revenue-based arrangements).

A second consideration is repayment rhythm: fixed schedules are predictable but inflexible; revenue-based and frequent-remittance structures flex with sales but require disciplined cash management.

What providers generally evaluate

  • Recent revenue consistency and cash-flow patterns
  • Time in business
  • Credit profiles, to varying degrees
  • Existing funding obligations
  • The purpose and size of the funding request

Working with funding providers

Independent third-party lenders and financing providers make their own approval decisions and set their own terms. Kennify provides education and a connection point : never a guarantee of financing or approval.
