American Express® Business Line of Credit


Read our FAQs and detailed guides to learn more about using your Business Line of Credit.

 

 

What factors decide the size of my Business Line of Credit?

Pricing and line of credit decisions are based on the overall financial profile of you and your business, including your history with American Express and other financial institutions, your credit history, and other factors. To determine the amount of your Business Line of Credit, we review information about you and your business through data sources such as your business’s bank account(s), your prior credit, and your repayment history, as well as additional information from your consumer credit report and your company’s commercial credit report. We analyze your average monthly revenue, time in business, and transaction volume, among other metrics, to assess your business’s financial performance. We also use the linked accounts you have added for transfers and transactions as part of this review. Although we use the accounts you have linked in our review, your cash flow data as it appears in Insights (whether it is current or not) is not a consideration for your Business Line of Credit status or applications for other products.   

 

Remember, disruptions of ongoing access to your linked accounts may cause account suspension or line decrease. Be sure that all bank accounts that reflect your business’s revenue remain linked.
