It considers several key factors relevant to lenders, including credit score (for U.S. businesses), business age, financial status, and monthly revenue.<\/p>\n<p>For businesses in Australia without a credit score, the LendingScore\u2122 focuses on business age and financial health.<\/p>\n<h2>How to Access Your LendingScore\u2122<\/h2>\n<p>When you apply for funding through Become, you will receive a personalized LendingScore\u2122 Dashboard, regardless of the outcome. This dashboard is tailored to your business and provides insights into improving your funding chances.<\/p>\n<h2>Improving Your Funding Chances with LendingScore\u2122<\/h2>\n<p>Your LendingScore\u2122 Dashboard offers personalized financial summaries, tips, articles, and resources to enhance your funding potential.
