What lenders in our network look for

We work with lenders who look at the full picture — not just your credit score. If banks said no because you're a restaurant or food-service business with a challenged credit history, we may still have options.

Not quite there yet? If you're under 6 months in business or under $20K monthly revenue, call us at 202-455-6866 and we'll tell you exactly what to do to qualify when you're ready. Options may still be available even with challenged credit.

Use of Funds

Capital that keeps your doors open and service running

Inventory & Supplies

Front food, beverage, and consumable inventory so you never run short during a rush or season.

Equipment

Ovens, fryers, refrigeration, POS systems, and kitchen upgrades — buy or lease what service demands.

Renovations & Buildout

Refresh the dining room, expand the kitchen, or open a second location.

Payroll & Staffing

Keep servers, cooks, and management paid through slow weeks and seasonal dips.

Seasonal Cash Flow

Smooth out the dips — weather, holidays, and off-peak months — with flexible operating capital.

Fund promotions, catering expansion, delivery setup, and local advertising to fill seats.

Working Capital

Cover inventory, payroll, and operating costs with flexible capital that matches your sales cycle.

Revenue-Based Funding

Repayments tied to your daily sales — flexible when traffic slows, faster when it picks up.

FAQ

Restaurant funding questions, answered

Yes — that's our specialty. Many lenders in our network specifically serve food-service and restaurant businesses that traditional banks decline. As long as you meet the baseline criteria (6+ months in business, $20K+ consistent monthly revenue, an active EIN, and a business bank account under your legal name), you can check your options.
Yes. Revenue-based funding ties repayment to your daily or monthly sales volume — it flexes when traffic slows and moves faster when business picks up. That structure is popular with restaurants because it aligns with how you actually get paid.
Not necessarily. We work with lenders who look beyond the credit score and focus on business revenue, consistency, and bank-statement health. Challenged credit may still be considered.
Many lenders in the network fund within 24 to 48 hours after approval, and some in as little as 4 hours. Timelines vary depending on the product, the lender, and how complete your documentation is.
No. The Funding Vault is a referral and marketing platform. We connect you to IFundYou's network of 75+ lenders who evaluate your profile and present funding options. We do not make lending decisions or set loan terms.
There is no cost to you for using this service. We are compensated by our funding partner for qualified referrals. Any fees associated with your funding product are disclosed by the lender directly — always review all terms before accepting any offer.
