Start the Process for Getting an SBA Loan Today!

Although it's called an SBA loan, you apply for an SBA loan with a local or national bank, not with the SBA. The bank processes the loan and gives you the money, and the SBA simply guarantees a portion of the loan.

The SBA is an excellent funding resource for business owners who cannot easily find funding through conventional funding sources. Banks like Wells Fargo Bank are ready to help you through the process. Whether you need money to open a store, need money to launch a startup business, or are raising money as working capital for an existing entity, the SBA is there for you.
