Small Business Funding Source

Choosing a small business funding source isn't really about finding a lender, it's about finding the lender that fits your numbers, your industry, and your timeline. A bank, an online lender, an SBA program, and a revenue-based funder all underwrite differently, and the wrong source wastes weeks and a hard credit pull on a no. Quordx Capital removes the guesswork: one application, matching against 50+ vetted lenders, and the 3-7 sources most likely to approve your specific file. No fee to you.

How Do You Identify the Right Source?

Match the source to the need. A long-term, low-rate need points to a bank or SBA loan. A fast, cash-flow-based need points to an online lender or working capital provider. An asset purchase points to equipment financing, where the equipment itself secures the deal and eases approval.

Quordx Capital's matching engine reads your revenue, time in business, credit, and use of funds, then routes you only to sources that actually lend to businesses like yours. A $30,000/month retailer and a $300,000/month manufacturer see entirely different lender lists, that's the point.

Which Funding Sources Fit?

Bank and Online Term Lenders: Lump-sum loans, $10,000-$500,000+, rates roughly 8-30% by profile. Banks run cheaper but slower; online lenders fund faster at a premium. Best for defined investments with a clear return.

SBA Lenders: Government-backed, up to $5M, ~9-11.5% APR on 7(a), terms up to 25 years. Best for established borrowers (2+ years) prioritizing cost over speed.

Equipment Financing Lenders: The asset secures the loan, ~7-20%, and the lender can often fund quickly because the collateral is clear. Best for buying machinery, vehicles, or systems.

How Quordx Works

Apply online in about 10 minutes. Upload 3-6 months of bank statements, your most recent business tax return, and your ID. Quordx Capital identifies the best-fit funding sources from our 50+ network and submits on your behalf. Most decisions return within 24-48 hours.

What to Expect

The right source comes back faster and cheaper because the match is correct from the start, you're not pitching a bank that was never going to fund a 14-month-old business. Expect decisions in 24-48 hours and funding in 3-7 business days. Stronger revenue and longer time in business widen your options and push rates toward the lower end of each range.

Quordx Capital is free to the borrower, no application, broker, or processing fees. Lenders pay us when your deal closes, so we win only when you get funded on terms you accept.
