A pre-qualification is an early estimate of what you might be eligible for. When you start your application, you'll answer a few basic questions about your business. We use those answers to give you a rough idea of the financing options that could be a fit.
Think of it as a starting point. It helps you see what's possible before you go any further. Since it's based on preliminary information (and we haven't verified anything yet), a pre-qualification is not a guarantee or a formal offer.
