New Square Loan in 2024

[SPPhotography1]

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!

I understand your frustration I really do! I see it every day and it's rough. I'm 12 years going on 13 years in November. This started scaling back last summer and I don't work for Square at all! I watched the trends and then started digging around and helping others with just information about trends. I jumped on every public forum like this one and Reddit that offered loans and all said the exact same no joke. Half were switching to square they were done with Clover or whatever pos they were using. The new section in the eligibility page is key right now. Unfortunately, the economy isn't great, we have an unstable country and world right currently. The big one right now and I am not talking politics or going there but we have an election and it will determine 2 different types of the way this country will go. Lenders are tightened up and have been. Unfortunately, we feel it as well. Best of luck to you truly and hopefully soon an offer and get this rolling again!

Just got the confirmation email from pipe about my approval and successful acct link, should be deposited in 1-2 business days it says. Still nothing from square I’m at 79% with no offer… all green metrics and early payoffs… I’ll update with squares offer whenever I get it.

Congrats! Could be a while with square. I paid off in August (my 3rd loan) and still have nothing. All green metrics all the time. No offer. Filled out surveys, sent emails with generic responses and nothing. I’ve applied with pipe. 

[BeeBraids]

Oh man I really hope not… and hopefully your process with pipe is easier and more helpful than square has been… 

[Twpchair]

The surveys are great make sure you leave your telephone number first! Also under the loan part scroll to the very bottom of it to the happy and frown part! If you haven't already, fill it out and leave again your number! You can copy and keep posting it after you update or the next day! I see more people here at least that get a human call them back later that day or the next. The number didn't show up as a square but an 866 or 800 number so, unfortunately, you have to answer them. I have them all blocked right now 😆 good luck and hopefully, it helps!

I applied for pipe just out of curiosity and after 3 weeks of trying to get a hold of someone , I finally synced square on there and they said I have no offers. Not sure it's because I have an existing loan with square? 

[Jjpainting]

I think most of us that pipe approved had existing loans with square. Mine was around 35% paid at the time of application with them.  Healrhyketo I know was paid off but most others had loans with square. 

[TrendzbyM]

I'm surprised I didn't get an approval then. Discouraging as it seems to be easy to get an approval 

[Jjpainting]

Oh I emailed and tried calling.  No one answered. Didn’t leave a message. But got a call back within an hour or so

Hello, I hope you don't mind I tagged you in a post with someone who is stating I believe when I read it again it's close to a week, and pipe hasn't pulled a payment yet! I told her to call asap! I have not applied or used them ever. I have looked at their reviews, other users on different platforms, and the terms of conditions. Most complaints were about the inconsistency of withdrawals. We are used to nightly like clockwork and it doesn't seem to be like that always, especially the first withdrawal. The others were weekends were iffy and definitely not holidays. I believe you were one of the first if not the first and might have better information about it than me saying to call asap today Friday before you get into another week if I read it right. Thank you so much for your help and support for others on here!

Going off of others it was almost an instant approval a few weeks ago but now 1-2 days. I'm sure or guessing a lot of users are now applying. I have only seen one person say they were turned down. They didn't state why or if Pipe stated why. It could have been as simple as not being able to verify the account who knows? Good luck and be patient it appears not much happens on the weekends and Monday is a Holiday. Good luck to you!

How long from when you signed up did you get offer? I just synced my square to them.  I am at 70% in just 5 months with square.  It’s my 7-8 loan with them 

[PerroneTech]

It doesn't send an offer right away. It takes a few days with them. Don't count on it coming fast. Once you get an offer and are approved, someone will reach out to you via email. Then you have to change your bank to one they set up for you, and you have to wait for Square to verify the account. Once verified they then wait for a payment to process. My payments don't get sent out automatically so I sent a small payment to them. Once the payment is sent, they send it back, and the payout is sent to you. Takes about 1-2 business days.

Expect about 2 weeks for the whole process. My first offer was small, but I took it to establish history. I was at 80% paid off with my loan at the time of being approved. I don't think Square even knows. It just shows up as a deposit, like any other ACH payment.

[Sj1976]

So I had applied to pipe and was in the waiting period of verification of their bank acct through square when my square offer arrived. I took the offer from square and canceled the verification with the pipe bank account. I keep checking the pipe overview page to see if anything changed or if it says anything different than waiting on Verification. Do you suppose it will just disappear after the offer expires? I wouldn’t mind taking that loan as well, but wonder how it would affect my payout with my square loan if I am verifying a different bank account. Does that make sense?

Hi everyone,

i got money from Pipe last week. But I don’t know how to make daily payment to Pipe. Someone please tell me the way. Thanks so much.

[Twpchair]

Let me tag in a user who has provided great insight. @Jjpainting arent you the one who received the first or 2nd Pipe loan? If im not mistaken you had a slight issue with 1-3 days where they didn't take out the payment every night like square and Boom took out or wanted multiple days at one time? I apologize if it wasn't you. If not hopefully the right poster will pop in. 

[Twpchair]

1. You might want to call soon and make sure they are taking it daily and not 3 or 4 days at a time! I don't have it and never used it. But others stated at first it's not pulling out daily like Square and boom 3-4 days later of busy day a big chunk was due. I'm not sure if it was just the whole first processing hiccup or if it has continued. I have only seen others state the first withdrawal and if they don't take it call and ask about weekends and holidays! Good luck and please 🙏 keep us posted as have this thread lately has been approved!

Thanks

[Twpchair]

You're welcome! Did you get it all straight? 

[Twpchair]
