Business Credit Cards

Business credit cards work like a line of credit to make purchases.

Especially for small businesses and companies without established credit histories in the business environment, finding the right business credit card solution can be challenging. Financial institutions that offer credit cards for businesses typically report credit histories on both the corporate and the personal credit histories of the small business owners, making it doubly important to maintain good habits when using small business credit card financing arrangements. The same policies generally hold for business line of credit arrangements with banks and other lending institutions.

Much like personal credit cards, credit cards for business use are subject to credit limits. This makes it even more critical for small businesses to obtain the right business credit card arrangements for their particular needs. A credit limit that is too low can hamper ongoing operations, while one that is too high may reduce the availability of other types of business credit if the company is perceived as being overextended or overly dependent on these financial tools. Banks and other lending institutions typically look at a number of factors when considering the credit lines and limits available to small and medium-sized business enterprises. These factors include the past credit history of the company and its owners, the current and past financial condition of the company and the amount of outstanding debt already in existence.
