Business Credit Readiness Check

Ten questions. Less than five minutes. This check shows you exactly where your business fundability stands before you apply for anything — and what to fix first. Your result is private. We only use it to send your breakdown and follow-up.

Business Credit Readiness Check

First Name

Email

Your business itself — how is it set up on paper?

I operate under my own name and Social Security number — there's no formal business entity yet.

I have an LLC or corporation, but some paperwork is incomplete or out of date.

My entity is active and in good standing, and I have an EIN separate from my Social Security number.

When business money comes in, where does it go?

The same personal account I use for everything else.

I have a business bank account, but personal and business money still mix sometimes.

A dedicated business bank account — business income and expenses never touch my personal accounts.

How consistent is your business information across applications, listings, and profiles?

It varies — different addresses, phone numbers, or even name spellings in different places.

Mostly consistent, but I've never sat down and checked it all side by side.

My business name, address, and phone match everywhere, and I have my DUNS number.

Have you opened vendor or supplier accounts that report your payments (net-30 trade lines)?

I didn't know paying vendors could build business credit.

I have one or two accounts, but I'm not sure if they report — or I pay them early without a system.

I keep several trade lines active, pay them on schedule, and know which ones report.

When did you last look at your business credit reports or scores?

Never — I wouldn't know where to find them.

Once, a while ago, usually because something came up.

I check them regularly, the same way I check my personal credit.

If your business needed a credit card or a loan tomorrow, how would it likely be approved?

Only with my personal guarantee and my personal credit doing all the work.

Partly on the business, but lenders still lean heavily on me personally.

On the business's own profile — my personal guarantee is the exception, not the requirement.

How does your business look to a lender doing a quick search?

A personal email address, no website, and licenses I haven't checked on in a while.

Some pieces are in place — a website or business email — but it's not all current.

Business email, a working website, and every license and registration current.

If a lender asked for proof of your business income, what could you hand over?

Not much — my records are scattered across receipts, apps, and memory.

I could pull it together from bank statements and tax returns, but it would take some digging.

Clean, current records — statements, tax returns, and bookkeeping that are ready on request.

How do you use business credit cards, if you have them?

I don't have any — or I use personal cards for business purchases.

I have one, but the balance runs high or I pay it whenever I get to it.

I use them deliberately, keep balances low relative to the limit, and pay on time every cycle.

Do you have a written plan for how your business will use credit?

No — I'd figure it out once the money was approved.

I have a general idea of what the credit would be for, but nothing written down.

Yes — I know what the credit is for, how it gets repaid, and which funding step comes next.
