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!
Thank you! We're moving back to our hometown. The small town that we're in doesn't really support small businesses unless you're from there. Kinda weird, but ya know. Our hometown is going bananas, knowing we're opening there. So much support from everyone... even the mayor is ecstatic. We just need this loan to be a cushion during our transition to a new location.
That is awesome and that is one thing about small towns in America they will rally around you and give you all the kudos and support! I'm rural mid Michigan and we are all mom n pops besides the 10 dollar generals every 10 ft 😆 🤣 😂 just kidding but we do have 5 with a one 4 way flashing light!
My offer just came through at 77% paid. Highest offer to date, $33k with $137k in sales so far for 2024. Also note, I have the Square Credit Card as well. I just clicked the submit button, so I’ll update when/if it gets approved.
Wow! Congrats!!!! I’m so happy I prayed that one of us would get one today! That’s awesome! 👏🏼 👏🏼 hopefully I’m next or another business in here that’s been waiting. 🙏
Congratulations 🎊
Congrats on the offer.
have you done 137k in just card sales or is it including cash and checks ?
I didn’t think you could have card and loan at the same time Per the website. ?
There's been a few people here that have said they got both. So not sure if they got their credit cards prior to maybe square making that change where it's one or the other? or maybe square just doesn't care anymore and haven't updated the site
I would think its card sales not including cash.
Yea I usually get an offer between 70-75%
I’m at 83 and all green. No offer.
my dashboard usually updates around 1-2pm. Today it didn’t update until 630pm. But still no offer
I noticed ours has been updating a lot later this week. Our processing goes to needs work every Wednesday because we're only open 3 days a week. Everything else is green.
Mine usually updates between 1-3pm and today it updated at 520. 🤔
Same here. Something is up.
Mine has still stayed the same 1-3 pm. We are open for 7 days. In the winter, I close 2 days. I'll have to pay attention then.
Unfortunately, it's been rough as you see. Hopefully, things will settle down and get back to normal! Good luck!
August 1st Square shareholder letter came out with another outstanding quarter for Square Loans. More loans than ever were started in the last 3 months, an outstanding show of commitment to the service.
"Square Loans facilitated approximately 142,000 loans totaling $1.45 billion in originations, up 32% year over year."
That breaks down to almost 1,600 loans a day (66 an hour, or more than 1 per minute). averaging $10,200+ per loan.
So yes, there are THOUSANDS and THOUSANDS of Square Loans happening all the time. It is unbelievable that they can get this number of loans even facilitated, that is a staggering number of loans to Square customers. It wouldn't be possible without the Square Loans Algorithm going thru and promoting offers to be given. For every one post on here saying they haven't gotten a loan or 5th offer, 10s of thousands have gotten loans. The service keeps growing though it may not seem like it to a user that is waiting for their 3rd loan.

Thank you so much. You are my hero! It's so hard 😫 and I wished more people used this forum so people could see and realize Square is worldwide, not just the United States. I see a couple of people from Canada and England on here regularly, and besides that, it's honestly about it. But people do need to know that even though Square is worldwide, it's still lending daily hourly etc they are a business and have share holders to answer too as well. So, if things slow from just the ones here, they have to answer to them as well. Last year was identical so far, and boom, come September till about late/mid June it slowed down and then went crazy. I feel so bad because I know sometimes sh*t happens like the hood oven 😪 unfortunately, without having a backup like we do with a line of credit you are caught. I would be fired after the end of the day if I worked for Square because I would be like Oprah, and you get a loan, you get a loan, and everybody gets a loan! 😆 🤣 😂 unfortunately, I get to work like everyone else 24/7, I think 🤔
Looks like square is doing pretty ok this year .Hopefully the losses up on the lending .
Yes, they do very well each year. Each year is better than the previous year, and they lend the most as well! Each quarter seems to go up and up. I know it's hard or mind-blowing, but being worldwide and Square is top rated, they really are lending each and every day. I would have to ask what percentage post here. Personally, I noticed that about 95% are from the USA, and I have seen a good amount from England and Canada. I can't say if I have seen any other countries at least posting here. I really wish more people would use the community threads. It helps others waiting for an offer. There are some great threads on here, and most just don't know it or don't use it. Looks like the books and numbers were good, and the market is semi stable. That's good, so hopefully, it loosens up in our Lil town here loanerville. There are too many people that really could use one bad. They have equipment that isn't working, leaking roof, and the other is being pushed around by big box stores stuck in the middle of 2 that moved in on both sides of hers. Let's see this bust open! Good luck!
I find that hard to believe as I've had my account now for over 6 months surpassed $35,000 in revenue 100 transactions zero disputes and everything is checked marked as good yet still says my eligible at this time that's pretty insane for them not to even offer the starter loan 500 bucks
Loan offer received today!
Offer is 50% of previous loan.
History: this will be 5th loan. Process over 350k, all green continually, up over 2000% YoY.. while I am disappointed in the low amount, this will allow us to put some more dollars towards marketing and get a ROI hopefully..
