New Square Loan in 2024

I’m at a bit of a loss for what else I need to do to be offered a new Square Loan at this point. I’ve been with Square for over 10 years, had 7 loans now that I’ve have paid back early every single time. Metrics are all in green, record sales year. In 2023, record numbers across the board, no refunds, no complaints or issues of any kind in our entire history. Current loan is 80% paid off, but no new offer in site. This is the kind of stuff that causes businesses to find someone else to process through! Please help! I’m sure I’ll get the same old excuses that you guys send to everyone about looking at every aspect of the business. But there isn’t a single aspect that isn’t way up. I’m not sure if there is a new process they are using now, or if there is some kind of issue with my banking or something else I’m not thinking about or aware of. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks, because I could really use some new capital to start the year off with and reinvest into my business!

Good luck, and hopefully, you will get an offer soon! I don't get a lot of emails from Square except outages? My last 2 offers no emails, only saw it on my dashboard. If I accept it, then I get the emails to sign to accepted etc. My last 2 loans I accepted 1 and not the other, but the accepted one  money was in my credit union before the email it's on its way! That is why I tell people if waiting for the deposit update check your bank it might be there already.

Some of you guys seem to be more worried about the Square Loans than your actual businesses. I mean, they know when to offer you money…. They see the data.

I don't judge, or now what other businesses need loans for. Some need it to expand or have an opportunity to get inventory for a great deal. Some need it for advertising and growing that way. These loans help a lot of small business owners vs. doing a bank loan, which is extremely hard to get right now. Most lenders this includes square is holding tight right now. We have a budget that they pushed back 2 times and has be passed in September, or the government shut down. In September, they decide if they are going to raise the interest rate again 🙄. A lot of factors are going on right now. This summer is trending in the same direction unfortunately.

🤣🤣🤣 probably,  since giving out 350k vs a bunch of 20k loans. I don't want to even imagine owing 350k on anything.

Sending good vibes to those waiting! I am currently at 90% paid off on my biggest loan ever. I am a very small business and maybe process around 7k a month if we’re lucky. A loan would be very beneficial for us, as we are struggling financially and have even considered throwing in the towel if nothing gives. I know It’s this way for a lot of others, and my heart goes out to you. Sending everyone prayers for good answers today.

😪Don’t give up! I know exactly how you feel. I am a very small business myself I process a little under 10k a month. I need an offer to promote and purchase more product and be able to take on more clients. I have an opportunity to grow but need the capital. Applied at other places but since I bank with square no one will accept my square statements. I’m at a dead end and every day I wake up in hopes for an offer and feel so defeated when there’s nothing. Been with square since 2021 so not to long but it had been great thus far. I don’t know what to do anymore. Feeling very discouraged but I cannot give up. I’m literally running my business on faith. I’ll pray you get an offer soon!
