How can an auto shop business loan help me?

Equipment

Successful auto shop businesses rely on having up-to-date equipment. In order to offer your services, you’ll need to ensure you have the proper equipment such as stocked tool chests, diagnostic equipment, air compressors, emergency spill kits, patch kits, vehicle lifts, etc. Furthermore, you’ll need to stock safety equipment for your employees.

Rent

The ability of a business to prosper is greatly enhanced by its location in a high-traffic region; more people means more prospective consumers. If the shop expects a large number of customers, you’ll also need to have sufficient parking spaces. Having a great location leads to lots of business, but may also result in hefty rent and taxes.

Insurance and Licensing

Operating an auto shop business in Canada requires you to have all the necessary business licenses and permits for you and your staff to use particular machinery.  Additionally, you’ll need to purchase liability, property, and workers compensation insurance in the event that property is damaged or one of your employees is injured on the job.

How it works

01

Apply in 3 simple steps and
get pre-approved instantly

Our all-digital credit application process is quick and easy and typically takes less than 10 minutes. We ask for basic information about you and your business. We ask you to securely connect your online banking information. And as soon as you're done, we'll tell you exactly how much you can borrow - all without hurting your credit score.

02

Draw what you need, when you need it

When your application is complete, you'll know exactly how much you can borrow, but only you know how much you actually need right now. Make individual draws from within your overall business loan limit, each with their own fixed fees and terms. All pricing is up front, with nothing hidden in the small print.

03

Use our support for whatever you need

Choose the repayment schedule that makes sense for your business—from daily, or weekly payments, or pay early to save on interest. Borrow from $10,000 to $300,000 on 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18 or 24 month terms, with absolutely no hidden fees.
