Term Loans & Working Capital

Working-capital products provide a lump sum or advance for inventory, payroll, expansion, and other operating needs; repayment structure varies by product.

Short-term business loans

A lump sum with a contractual repayment schedule and term that may suit inventory, payroll, marketing, or another defined operating need.

Working capital advances

A revenue- and bank-activity-based structure that may use recent business statements and a concise application.

Merchant cash advance

An advance repaid from future sales under the provider’s contractual remittance structure.

Revenue-based financing

A financing structure whose contractual remittance may vary with reported revenue.

Lines of Credit

A line of credit is standby capital: draw what you need, repay, and reuse — and only pay for what you use.

Revolving business line of credit

Draw, repay, and reuse within the approved limit and the access rules of the selected facility.

Interest-only line of credit

For qualified borrowers who want lower near-term payments while capital is deployed into growth.

eCommerce line of credit

Sized against your sales-platform performance — Shopify, Amazon, and beyond — instead of traditional financials.

Asset-Backed & Bridge Lending

Asset-backed lending uses eligible equipment, property, receivables, or inventory as security and considers both asset value and the business behind the request.

Real estate bridge loans

Short-term loans secured by eligible commercial or investment real estate; timing depends on valuation, title, and underwriting.

Equipment-backed loans

Financing secured against machinery, vehicles, or heavy equipment you already own.

Sale-leaseback / cash-out

Sell eligible owned equipment to a financing provider and lease it back while the asset remains in business use.

Open file
Hard money real estate loans

Asset-based real estate lending where qualification rests on the property and equity, not income documentation. Interest-only structures available.

Equipment Financing & Leasing

Equipment finance covers new, used, dealer, auction, and private-sale assets through a dedicated Nex application lane.

Invoice & Receivables Financing

Receivables financing may provide earlier access to cash from eligible work already delivered, subject to verification and facility terms.

Invoice factoring

Receive an agreed advance against eligible unpaid invoices; the reserve, contractual fee, and release conditions are defined in the facility terms.

Open file
Invoice financing

A facility may be structured against selected eligible invoices while your business keeps collections in-house, subject to provider terms.

Supply chain financing

Pay suppliers immediately and extend your own repayment terms — both sides of the ledger get room to breathe.

Purchase order financing

Fund the cost of fulfilling a confirmed purchase order, so a big win never dies of working-capital starvation.

Specialty & Innovation Financing

Innovation financing funds what banks struggle to underwrite: recurring revenue, tax credits, and inventory in motion.

SR&ED & tax credit financing

Financing may be available against eligible Canadian SR&ED credits or other confirmed government receivables.

Venture debt

Debt capital for eligible technology and recurring-revenue businesses to compare alongside equity financing.

Revenue-based financing for SaaS

Growth capital repaid as a percentage of monthly revenue — you stay in control while you scale.

Inventory financing

Advances secured against eligible business inventory, so shelves stay stocked ahead of the season.

Commercial Real Estate

Financing for the space your business owns — or is about to.

Owner-occupied CRE financing

Bank-grade financing for businesses purchasing their own premises.

Mezzanine & subordinate debt

Layered financing secured against multifamily property cash flow.

Early Payment & Supply Chain

Capital that moves with goods — before, during, and after delivery.

Early payment programs

Suppliers receive accelerated payment on approved invoices — loyalty you can bank on.

In-transit supply chain finance

Funding for goods on the water or on the road, before they ever reach the dock.

Nex runs the comparison.

Business loan questions, answered.

Straight answers on credit, speed, documents, and amounts.

Can I get a business loan with bad credit?

A lower score does not automatically end the conversation. Nex reviews cash flow, time in business, collateral, and the purpose of funds before identifying suitable financing paths. Your credit is only checked when you send your application to the lender you choose.

How fast can I get funded?

Timing depends on the product, requested amount, lender underwriting, and how quickly supporting information is available. Nex confirms the next step after reviewing the initial application and keeps the applicant informed as the file moves.

What documents do I need to apply?

The Nex application portal starts with the funding need, a concise business profile, and contact details. Documents are not required on the first screen. Nex or a selected lender may request bank statements, identification, or financial statements later when they are relevant to the product.

Can I get a loan if I owe the CRA?

Tax arrears can narrow the available structures but do not replace a proper review. Disclose the balance and payment arrangement so Nex can identify whether a suitable path exists.

What is the difference between a secured and an unsecured loan?

A secured loan uses eligible equipment, property, receivables, or another asset as collateral. An unsecured loan relies more heavily on business cash flow and financial strength. Available amount, pricing, term, and security depend on the proposal and underwriting.

How much can I borrow?

Available amounts depend on revenue, time in business, cash flow, security, and the use of funds. The Nex application portal collects an initial amount so the request can be matched; the final amount and structure remain subject to underwriting.

Does checking my eligibility guarantee approval?

No. The eligibility view is an estimate based on the initial business profile. Any offer, amount, pricing, and timing depend on the complete file, underwriting, and the selected financing provider.
