What is working capital for contractors?

Working capital lets an equipment-heavy contractor cover payroll, fuel, and materials without draining the cash tied up in machines and jobs. Contractor Capital Funding approves on your deposits (FICO 500+) and funds $5,000 to $5,000,000 in as little as 24 hours — and can finance the equipment separately so your cash stays free for operations.

When contractors use working capital

Frequently asked questions

Should I use working capital or equipment financing?
Use equipment financing to buy machines (secured by the equipment) and working capital for payroll, fuel, and materials — many contractors use both.
Does the equipment tie up my approval?
No — working capital is based on your revenue and deposits, separate from any equipment financing.
How fast can a contractor get working capital?
Most contractors fund within 24 hours of approval; smaller amounts can be same-day.
Can I qualify with bad credit?
Yes — FICO 500+ can qualify because approval is weighted toward revenue and deposits, not credit score.
Do I need the contract to qualify?
No — approval is based on your bank deposits, not the awarded contract, which keeps it fast.
Will checking my options affect my credit score?
No. Prequalifying uses a soft credit pull that does not affect your score. A hard pull only happens if you accept an offer.
What can I use the funds for?
Any legitimate business purpose — payroll, inventory, materials, equipment, marketing, covering a slow period, or growth. There are no restrictions on how you use the capital.
Are there any upfront or application fees?
No. Applying and getting a decision is free. Any fees are disclosed in your offer before you accept, so there are never surprises.
