Honesty is at the heart of everything Ladybug does. There is no upfront fee to apply through our lending network and no cost or obligation to accept any loan offer. Beware, there are unscrupulous lenders and brokers who will seek SBA fees of up to 15%.  Did you know that 2% is the maximum SBA consultation fee allowed by law? Your growth is contingent on the maximum net of the capital you accept. Let's grow together!

Ladybug loves lending and it shows as we hope to gain your business for a lifetime.

Low personal credit score or poor credit history? No problem. Ladybug provides free personal credit repair with its Business Hybrid Credit Builder.  

To qualify for an SBA or term loan, business owners must have a FICO credit score of at least 680 on all 3 personal credit bureaus, but did you know, more importantly to ensure you success is a vibrant Business Credit Profile score at the commercial credit bureaus?  This is after all, a finance application for business credit, and even the best personal credit scores are being declined nowadays. Why?  Lack of business credit.

Ladybug is here to support you—even if your credit needs improvement—with complimentary credit repair services to help you meet our requirements. Our Business Hybrid Credit Builder has rehabilitated low 500 credit scores in as little as 4 weeks, while importantly establishing and building out a company's Business Credit Profile on the commercial credit bureaus such as Dun & Bradstreet's PAYDEX..

A soft credit pull which does not impact your credit score, allows you to prequalify without affecting your credit history. A hard credit check  occurs when you reach the final stages of the loan application process, meaning once you've qualified and are considered a serious applicant for a loan; this is typically when your credit report is pulled to verify your information and finalize the loan terms.

In addition, we review your business credit reports, such as those from Dun & Bradstreet, Inc and other commercial credit bureaus.. Business credit inquiries will not appear on your personal credit report or affect your personal credit score.

These reports help us better understand your business and may include details like revenue, time in operation, SIC or NAICS codes, and ownership information. This data allows us to efficiently determine your eligibility for funding and tailor solutions to your needs.

Even some of the best personal credit scores are declined due to lack of a business credit profile. Ladybug's Business Hybrid Credit Builder resoles that in as little as 4 weeks and includes free personal credit repair. 

No, you are under no obligation to accept a loan, and may accept less than the full amount offered. There is no application fee, so you can explore your options risk-free.

If you don’t initially qualify, don’t worry Ladybug offers free credit repair services as part of our Business Hybrid Credit Builder.  You can meet the requirements and qualify for funding in as little as 4 weeks. Your success is our priority.
