Know the risks
- You must repay even if a client doesn't pay you.
- Interest and fees add up — compare the total cost of credit, not just the monthly payment.
- Personal guarantees and assets may be at risk.
- Only borrow what the job or growth can repay.
- Speak to an accountant about your situation before you apply.
