Our verdict

Written and analysed by Smarter Loans Editorial Team · Reviewed by Vlad Sherbatov

Best for

Businesses six months old that want a term loan without a full year of history

Not for

Businesses in Quebec, and those needing terms beyond 12 months

What we like

  • Only 6 months trading required
  • 9.99% APR floor
  • Advance available alongside for revenue-based repayment

Where it could improve

  • 12-month maximum term on the term loan
  • Does not serve Quebec, unlike most of the pool

What you need to apply

  • 4 recent bank statements from every business account

CanaCap counts every account

Deposits, not revenue

The monthly test is measured in gross deposits rather than reported revenue, so money actually arriving in the account is what counts, whatever the invoices say.

All accounts on the table

Statements come from every business account, not a chosen one. That works in your favour when deposits are spread across banks, and against the habit of showing only the healthiest account.
