Quite the contrary! It\u2019s essential to get your business prepared to handle the stresses that come along with coronavirus &#8211; that includes learning more about coronavirus SBA loans.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Coronavirus SBA loans<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let us clarify &#8211; there are no specific \u2018coronavirus business loans\u2019. The term \u2018coronavirus SBA loans\u2019 is just the casual name for the Small Business Administration\u2019s Economic Injury Disaster Loans program, and may be used with reference to the SBA\u2019s efforts to combat the effects of COVID-19 on American businesses.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/disasterloan.sba.gov\/ela\/Information\/EIDLLoans\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">SBA Economic Injury Disaster Loans<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> are designed to \u201cprovide the necessary working capital to help small businesses survive until normal operations resume after a disaster.\u201d EIDL\u2019s can provide small businesses with up to $2 million in funds. That financial aid should be used to help the business cover their operating expenses and other financial obligations. And since they\u2019re designed for businesses that are in need, EIDL\u2019s have interest rates that max out at 4 percent yearly (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sba.gov\/disaster-assistance\/coronavirus-covid-19\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3.75%<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for coronavirus specifically) over a maximum term of 30 years.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Curious if your business qualifies for coronavirus SBA loans?<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe style=\"border: none;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.become.co\/widget\/get-loan-slider\/slider.html\" width=\"500\" height=\"295\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Who qualifies for coronavirus SBA loans?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">First and foremost, to qualify for coronavirus SBA loans, your business must be located in a designated disaster area which has been identified as having been impacted by the coronavirus. At this time several states have applied for eligibility through the SBA, but there have yet to be any announcements of approved applications. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/kfor.com\/health\/coronavirus\/small-businesses-impacted-by-covid-19-can-receive-federal-disaster-loans\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reports<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> say that, in order to qualify, the state must provide at least 5 cases per county of businesses facing financial losses.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Secondly, your business must show that it has exhausted other routes toward obtaining additional funding (i.e. banks, private lenders, etc.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). This qualification makes sense since EIDL\u2019s exist to help small businesses that are in great need of financial assistance. If your business can potentially get funding from a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.become.co\/blog\/alternative-business-loans\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">traditional or alternative lender<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, it\u2019s best to leave the EIDL\u2019s for the less fortunate.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Third, your business must have no more than 500 employees. Pretty straightforward.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So with these qualifying criteria in mind, how can you apply for coronavirus business loans through the SBA?<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How to apply for the SBA coronavirus relief loan<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Applying for coronavirus business loans is fairly easy to do, especially now that you have the option to <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">apply for SBA disaster loans online through <a href=\"http:\/\/www.become.co\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Become<\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. <strong>In response to recent changes to the federal interest rate, our partner SmartBiz has introduced discounted SBA loan interest rates between 5.75% to 8.0% for loan amounts between $30,000 and $5 million.

Fortunately, they aren\u2019t your only hope for financial relief during this tumultuous time. If coronavirus business loans backed by the SBA aren\u2019t in the cards for your business, consider the following alternative options available in the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.become.co\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Become<\/a> online business lending marketplace.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Alternative coronavirus relief options for small businesses:<\/b><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. Unsecured business emergency loans<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Small businesses often lack the valuable assets that larger businesses may use to secure loans. That makes unsecured business loans a valuable alternative, especially for businesses that are hurt by the coronavirus. Do note that during emergencies, unsecured loans may require a personal guarantee from the business owner since the business may still pose a higher risk given the situation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong><a class=\"btn btn-lg btn-success\" href=\"https:\/\/www.become.co\/unsecured-business-loans\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">APPLY FOR UNSECURED LOAN<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. Business lines of credit<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In times like these when unexpected business expenses can appear out of the blue, having a flexible form of financing to turn to is an invaluable tool. Business lines of credit are exactly that. They offer business owners the ability to use funds for basically anything business-related, and the funds can be used on an as-needed basis. That means you\u2019ll only end up paying interest on the funds you actually use, not on the entire line of credit. Quite the handy safety-net to have in place!<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong><a class=\"btn btn-lg btn-success\" href=\"https:\/\/www.become.co\/business-line-of-credit\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">APPLY FOR CREDIT LINE<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. Equipment financing<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Emergency situations can place a heavy burden on your business and may even mean having to send employees home. In light of that concern, one way to keep your business running is to use machinery that can get the job done in the absence of helping human hands. While this option might not be entirely feasible to businesses in every industry, it\u2019s an idea worth entertaining if it can mean the difference between failure and survival for your business. Plus, much of the time, business equipment loans are tax-deductible and the equipment serves as its own collateral on the loan!<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong><a class=\"btn btn-lg btn-success\" href=\"https:\/\/www.become.co\/business-equipment-loans\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">APPLY FOR EQUIPMENT FINANCING<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Take a deep breath<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Small business owners have it hard right now, but they\u2019re not alone in this struggle.
