Why this exists

Why the usual lenders say no.

Your revenue is real. The problem is the form. Here is why traditional underwriting turns away healthy operators in this space, and what we do differently.

01

Low credit score

Traditional banks often require a 700+ FICO score for commercial equipment loans.

Our partners prioritize your freight history and collateral value over personal credit.
02

Time in business

Big lenders want three years of tax returns for every application.

We connect you with lenders that serve startup trucking companies with less than one year of history.
03

High debt ratio

Standard lenders view existing truck payments as a primary liability.

We focus on revenue potential and non-recourse freight factoring instead of strict debt-to-income limits.
