Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get a business loan in Saskatchewan?


You have several options when you are looking for a business loan in Saskatchewan. The first step to getting a loan is deciding where you’ll get it from.

First, you should try to find out if you are eligible for any government loans or grants. There are local institutions that help local business owners through grants. These grants and loans are the least expensive options you will be able to find. If you qualify for any of them, you should consider these options.

If you are not eligible for a government-sponsored financing option, you still have other options available. Traditional lenders like banks can get you reasonable rates while offering you great personal service. If you go to the bank that your business accounts are open with, they will already have access to your financial information and can offer you personal advice and service.

If you need money in a rush and/or your credit score isn’t perfect, you can still go to an alternative lender. In fact, alternative lenders will offer you the fastest service. They will also deal with the broadest range of borrowers but might have higher interest rates.

 

Are there any provincial government business loan programs for Saskatchewan-based businesses?


If you’re looking for funding, you should consider programs like these:

· Community Futures: Saskatchewan
· Operation Entrepreneur
· Western Canada Business Service Network
· Women Entrepreneurs of Saskatchewan

 

How do I apply for a business loan in Saskatchewan?


Applying for a business loan in Saskatchewan only takes a few simple steps. After you’ve decided which lender to apply to, you just need to:

1. Send the lender an application
2. Wait for the lender’s response
3. If they send an offer, review the terms they are offering you
4. Send a full application with required documentation
5. The lender will send you the funds and your first payment becomes due

 

What are the eligibility criteria for a business loan in Saskatchewan?


Your eligibility for a loan depends on the lender you go to. Alternative lenders usually have the lowest requirements. On the other hand, government grants and credit unions usually have the most specific requirements. Most lenders want you to be in business for at least 6-12 months and have monthly sales of $5,000 or more.

Almost all lenders will want to see your:

· Credit score
· Business documents including financial statements
· Government ID

Different lenders will ask for different information. Of course, this is particularly true when it comes to business financial information.  Most will want to see your revenue for the last three months.

 

How fast can I get a business loan in Saskatchewan?


This depends entirely on the lender you go to. Government programs will usually take the longest for approval. Banks will take anywhere from a week to over a month. Alternative lenders are the fastest, usually taking just a few business days. Some alternative loans can send the money sent to your account the next business day, but the cost of borrowing may be higher.

 

How big of a business loan can I get in Saskatchewan?


You can get a large loan if you have good credit in Saskatchewan. Every lender will be willing to lend you more money if your credit score is high and you have healthy financials for your business. Having a large and consistent revenue will also help qualify you for a larger loan. Most business loans can go as high as $300,000 to $500,000.

 

Can I get a business loan with bad credit in Saskatchewan?


Yes, you can find bad credit loans in Saskatchewan. Many alternative lenders will still lend you money, but they will view you as a riskier borrower. For a lender, more risk means higher rates.

If you choose to look for a bad credit loan in Saskatchewan, you can expect higher rates which can still come with a fast approval.
