Creative financing

A high bar — on purpose.

CreativeFi is selective by design. The qualifying call filters in both directions: it's how we protect our lenders, and how we make sure the program is genuinely right for you.

The criteria

What a strong fit looks like.

You don't need every box checked to start a conversation — but the closer you are, the faster and stronger the outcome.

5+ years in business

Established operating history. Newer companies may still qualify with a strong personal guarantee.

$1M+ in annual revenue

Real top‑line volume. CreativeFi is built for substance, not survival financing.

Clean commercial credit

A healthy Paydex / Dun & Bradstreet profile and comparable trade debt.

No bankruptcies, liens, or judgments

No recent delinquencies or alarming derogatory marks on the business or guarantor.

680+ personal FICO

When a personal guarantee is required, a strong owner credit profile supports approval — think a clean PayNet report, bills paid on time, and a majority owner-operator standing behind the business.

A genuine use for capital

Growth, acquisition, recap, equipment, runway — a real reason, not a last resort.

When it's time

What to have ready.

Nothing is required to start — the first call needs only a conversation. If we move forward, a complete file is short, and everything sensitive is handled through a secure channel.
