CBD program loan restrictions

Kiwismom

Hi,

Does anyone know if being enrolled in the Square CBD program limit or restrict your eligibility for future Square loan offers? I've had several very frustrating conversations with the Square escalation specialists and can not get a straight answer from anyone.

Hi @Kiwismom !

That’s a great question, I’d be happy to clarify.

We are happy to announce that we’ve recently made changes to our loan program to allow sellers that participate in our CBD program to be eligible for Square Loans. This change does not guarantee loan approval, but we are excited to continue to expand lending access to more sellers with our FDIC-approved bank charter.

If you are not currently eligible for a loan, there may be other aspects of your business that may be impacting your eligibility or approval for a loan. Please check our Square Loan FAQ in our Support Center for more information on loan eligibility. If your business becomes eligible to apply for a loan, we’ll notify you by email and through your Square Dashboard.

Hope that helps, please feel free to reach out to us directly if you have any other questions!
