About Bridgement

As an owner of an SME (small to medium enterprises), more commonly known as a small business, it can be very difficult to secure a capital loan from banks or loan providers to grow your business so that you can take on more business or new projects.

This is because banks are usually hesitant to provide loans to small businesses like yours and in many cases,  the process for your application may take weeks. Well, this is where Bridgement comes in to help you! Bridgement is a digital, non-bank lending company that has the goal of providing loans to you and your SMEs.

Business loans 

If your business requires a loan on a simple term basis to cover a once-off business need then the business loan type is ideal for you. You have access to your funds within 24 hours after being approved. There are no hidden costs in your weekly rate, which is what is best for you as a customer as transparency is held highly. As a perk, you will even be rewarded for settling your loan early. 

This will allow you to take advantage of any growth opportunities as well as fund a new or existing project, or stock and new equipment.

Line of Credit

Another type of business funding offered to you and your small business is that of Line of  Credit. If your business only requires a flexible revolving credit facility to cover everyday needs, then this service is for you! 

You only pay for what you use, which you can draw and repay as you need. The cherry on top is that you are rewarded for early settlement as well!  You will spend less of your valuable time applying for business finance and you will have access to your available funds at any time during the day.

Invoice finance

Last, but certainly, is the business funding form of Invoice finance. This allows you to turn unpaid invoices into funds to manage ongoing cash flow. You can choose one or many invoices to fund. You will have no disclosure to your client or clients and you can access  100% of your invoice value, which helps improve cash flow and speed up growth.  You can get as much as R5 million on your receivable invoices and this allows you to optimize and save on your cost of finance with the option to settle when it will suit you and your business best.
