SME Loans Ireland | What to Look For

Looking for a Small to Medium Enterprise loan in Ireland?

Looking for flexible business loans can be a difficult and time-consuming task, especially if you are not sure where to start. Banks are the most obvious places to get a loan for your business but they are not always the best option.

There are many different types of business loans available from banks and other financial institutions and it can be difficult to know which one is right for your business finance.

At Linked Finance, we can help you find the right loan for your small business and provide you with expert advice on the best way to finance your business.

What are SME loans?

SME loans are loans that are specifically designed for small to medium enterprises. These loans can be used for a variety of purposes, such as expanding your business, buying new equipment, or hiring new staff.

What are the interest rates?

The interest rate on an SME loan will depend on a number of factors, such as the amount you borrow, the term of the loan, and the type of loan you choose.

Who is eligible for an SME loan?

To be eligible for an SME loan, you must be a small to medium-sized enterprise. This means that your business must have less than 250 employees, trading a minimum of 2 years for term loans with revenue over €100,000. 

Our Merchant Cash Advance is slightly different as businesses can be trading for as little as 6 months to apply.

How much loan can I get for a small business?

Based on these factors you can apply for up to €500,000 for term loans for up to 5 years. For short-term working capital, you can apply up to €150,000 over 12 months with the Merchant Cash Advance.
