Getting a loan for your business can mean the difference between growing your brand and becoming stagnant. It’s an important step in keeping your business afloat or finally expanding into a larger organization.

However, getting the loan you need isn’t always easy, and some loans come with several strings attached. Unsecured business loans are an excellent way to get the funds you need to grow your company without the cumbersome conditions other business loans impart.

Let’s explore the ins and out of unsecured business loans, and how they can help your organization.

What are unsecured business loans?

Unlike secured loans, unsecured business loans do not require collateral and deliver the cash you need faster than secured loans. This means that you do not have to show collateral—like essential equipment for your business, your inventory, property—or other assets in order to receive the funds.

Keep in mind, though, that while unsecured business loans do not require collateral some lenders still expect a personal guarantee for the loan. This means that should you not repay your loan, the lender may attempt to gain possession of other assets, like cash, your car, or your home.

Another thing to remember is that most unsecured business loans come with higher percentage rates than secured loans. While this means you pay more over time, it still gives you the chance to get the cash you need faster than with other loans—and more opportunity to build the capital to pay it off faster, meaning less interest over time.

Easier application

Besides getting the funds you need faster than secured loans, unsecured loans afford a much quicker application process. It’s a simpler, more straightforward process than applying for secured loans since there’s less background information to explore, like what qualifies as collateral.

Similarly, the approval process is often much faster than that of secured loans. This means that your business doesn’t need to wait around for an appraisal of your assets to be used as collateral. This is often the longest part of waiting when it comes to secured loans, which can drag on for quite some time.
