iBank.com, America’s #1 online small businesses financial network, announces the release of its searchable module to SCORE, America's premier source of free & confidential small business advice for entrepreneurs. Both companies have similar missions, which are to help small businesses succeed in today’s competitive marketplace.
“We are thrilled to be featured on such a wonderful small business site,” said Tom Markel, CEO of Credentrust, which powers iBank.com. “Helping the small business owner get the resources they need, day or night, is what iBank.com and SCORE are all about.”
iBank.com is dedicated to providing the small business owner with the necessary resources and financing needed, to help the business start, grow or stay afloat. iBank.com offers the small business a secured storage vault, which holds all their business information and tax returns. This gives the borrower the opportunity to fill out only one application which will then be seen by hundreds of lenders, investors and insurers. Working with iBank.com small businesses have access to over 265 lenders and over 90 customized commercial loan applications, 30 commercial insurance applications and a private investor network, along with the business tools and workshops offered by SCORE. All of this is offered in real time, anytime and anywhere. This gives the applicant a chance to compare rates and terms and choose his own lender, insurer or investor. With just one application the borrower will be connected in real time to America’s best sources for commercial loans and leases, commercial insurance products and capital investors.
“Access to capital is vital for small businesses. The numerous searchable sources for capital and insurance available to entrepreneurs provide the opportunity to pick and choose the best solutions for their businesses,” said Ken Yancey, SCORE CEO.
