Programs run from $5,000 to $5,000,000. The estimate tool on this site gives you a range in seconds, and a specialist confirms exact options.

What do I need to apply?

The first step takes about 20 seconds: how much you need, monthly revenue, time in business, and how to reach you. Your specialist will then ask for recent business bank statements.

Are you the lender?

Royal Funding Group arranges financing through its network of funding partners. One application gives you access to multiple options, and your specialist helps you compare them.

Which industries do you fund?

Most industries qualify, including trucking, construction, childcare, roofing, restaurants, medical, retail, and auto repair. Visit the industry pages for specifics.

Where are you located?

Our headquarters is at 180 Maiden Lane, New York, NY 10038, with a second office in Miami. Our funding specialists work with businesses in all 50 states.

Working Capital

How fast is working capital funded?

Approvals happen in hours and funds arrive the same day. Your specialist confirms the timeline once they have your recent bank statements.

Is collateral required for working capital?

No collateral is required on unsecured programs, which run from $5,000 to $5,000,000. A specialist walks you through the options that fit your deposits and time in business.

What is working capital used for?

Payroll, inventory, seasonal gaps, equipment repairs, marketing and taxes are the most common uses. It suits any need where speed matters more than a long repayment runway.

Business Line of Credit

How much can a business line of credit provide?

Lines run up to $5,000,000 and you can draw as little as $1,000 at a time. You pay only on what you use, and the rest stays available.

Does a line of credit cost anything to open?

No. There is no cost to open and no annual fee, so the line can sit ready until you need it.

When does a line of credit make sense instead of working capital?

When the need is recurring or unpredictable rather than a single amount. Many owners open a line before a busy season so funds are ready the day a supplier or repair bill lands.

Term Loans

What are the terms on a business term loan?

Term loans run from $5,000 to $5,000,000 over 12 to 48 months. Most programs include early payoff discounts, so you only pay for the time you use the capital.

How long does a term loan approval take?

Approvals happen in hours. The streamlined process removes the paperwork that slows traditional lenders down; your specialist asks for recent business bank statements and little else to start.

What do businesses use term loans for?

Renovations, large equipment, hiring, refinancing and inventory builds — investments that pay back over time and suit a longer, predictable repayment.

Expansion Financing

How much expansion financing is available?

Expansion financing runs from $5,000 to $5,000,000, structured to the project. Same-day approvals and funding are available.

Can expansion financing fund a second location or an acquisition?

Yes. New locations, acquisitions, franchise units, fleet growth and large contracts are the core uses, with the process built around your timeline.

Do franchisees qualify for expansion financing?

Yes. Franchisees with an operating location and 12 months or more in business qualify for expansion financing and working capital.
