What is Business Credit?

  • Business Credit is credit that is obtained in a Business Name
  • With business credit , the business builds its own credit profile and credit score for its EIN number.
  • This credit is in the business name and is based on the business’s ability to pay, not the business owners.
  • The business qualifies for high limit revolving store credit cards like Office Depot, Home Depot, Sam’s Club, Costco, Dell, BP, Walmart, Master Card, Visa, Amex, and auto loans.
  • The business becomes more lendable, providing easy access to credit lines and loans.

  • Set up your entity, preferably a corporation or LLC.

Step 3: Get Initial Credit

  • Most trades cannot be added
  • If you gave good personal credit now, you can secure up to $150,00 in unsecured, no DOC, 0% financing for your business, even as a startup.
  • This comes in the form of five business credit cards (with cash-out capability) that report to the business reporting agencies but do require a personal guarantee.
  • These accounts give you five tradelines with high limits.
  • Vendors usually offer Net 30 terms.
  • You will need to find vendors who do not report to business agencies and who will approve you with no prior credit.
  • Five of these accounts must be reporting before you can get revolving store credit.

  • Starter vendors are very hard to find because 97% of trade vendors don’t report to the business reporting agencies.

  • You can get initial business credit with start vendors who will give you initial credit even if you have no credit, no score, or no trade lines now.
  • Some starter vendors include:
  • Quill
  • Uline
  • Wells Fargo Secured Card
