Equipment Financing

Financing structured around the machinery, vehicles, technology or tools your business uses to operate.

What is equipment financing?

Equipment financing is business financing used to acquire equipment, where the equipment itself is typically central to how the financing is structured. It is commonly used by businesses that need productive assets in place before the revenue those assets generate arrives.

What it is commonly used for

  • Production machinery and shop equipment
  • Commercial vehicles and trailers
  • Technology, servers and business software
  • Medical, dental and diagnostic equipment
  • Construction and material-handling equipment

Who it may fit

Businesses that need a specific asset now and prefer to spread the cost over the period the asset is used.

Factors that may affect eligibility

  • Type, age and condition of the equipment
  • Time in business and business financial profile
  • Whether the equipment is purchased new, used or at auction

What information is typically needed

Generally, basic business details such as legal business name, industry, time in business, approximate annual revenue, the amount of financing you are seeking and how you intend to use it. A financing source may request additional documentation during its own review.

What happens after you submit a request

Your financing request is reviewed and, where appropriate, may be matched with or referred to a financing source. That source conducts its own qualification process and communicates available options, terms and next steps. Submitting a request does not guarantee an offer or approval, and all financing is subject to applicable qualification criteria.
