Will a low credit score affect my chances of being approved?
While a low credit score may limit your financing options, 1West has the ability to get you financing within our ABLE platform.
How soon will I have access to my money after I’m approved?
Depends on the financing product and partner that you are paired with, however, we estimate it would take anywhere from 24-72 hours to receive the capital from receipt of initial required documentation. For our SBA product, it can take several days longer than that.
