SAN FRANCISCO--()--Funding Circle US, the leading small business loans platform, today announced Small Business Choice. The newest feature of the Funding Circle US loan platform provides borrowers with three fully approved loan options with different terms and rates to give small business owners the flexibility to find the loan that best fits their needs.

At Funding Circle, we are committed to the best customer experience, which includes creating flexibility for our borrowers,'' said Bernardo Martinez, Managing Director of Funding Circle US. “Traditionally, deciding on what loan terms are best can be hard for small business owners, but Small Business Choice offers a straightforward way to pick the right loan for them.”

Under Small Business Choice:

  • Loan options are suggested after being completely underwritten by Funding Circle. Borrowers are fully approved for all three options.
  • In line with Funding Circle’s global commitment to transparency, offers are presented in a straightforward way over the phone and in emails that directly outline the total loan amount, term, rate and monthly payment.
  • The feature applies to all small business owner applicants, including existing borrowers, at Funding Circle US.

As a founding member of the Responsible Business Lending Coalition and signatory to the Small Business Borrower Bill of Rights, Funding Circle is committed to providing convenient and transparent financing to small business owners that have traditionally been under-served by traditional lenders.
