Working capital funding covers day-to-day operating needs such as payroll, inventory, and cash flow gaps between invoices and payments. CruzFi connects you with partners offering short-term capital, revenue-based options, and invoice factoring.
What is working capital funding?
Funding used to cover short-term operating needs rather than long-term assets: payroll, rent, inventory, supplier payments, and gaps while you wait on receivables. Options CruzFi's partners offer include short-term loans, revenue-based financing, and invoice factoring.
When does working capital funding make sense?
When a timing gap, seasonal dip, or large order would otherwise strain cash on hand, and the funds will be repaid from near-term revenue. For long-term purchases such as equipment or property, a term loan, equipment financing, or real estate loan usually fits better.
Is CruzFi the lender?
No. CruzFi is a capital access platform and referral service, not a lender, bank, or credit union. CruzFi reviews your request and connects you with independent funding partners. Each partner sets its own requirements, rates, fees, and terms, and approval is never guaranteed.
What do I need to get started?
To start, CruzFi asks for your funding goal, the amount you are considering, time in business, approximate monthly revenue, industry, location, and contact details. No documents, Social Security number, or bank login are needed to submit a request. A funding partner will tell you what it requires before you apply with them.
Submitting a request does not guarantee approval or funding.
