| Approval difficulty | Moderate, based on revenue and turn rate | Strict, wants AR + inventory + collateral | Easy but more expensive |
| Flexibility | Match payments to seasonal cash cycles | Fixed monthly schedule regardless of season | Daily/weekly debits hurt cash flow |
| Best for | Pre-season buys, bulk discounts, ecommerce SKUs | Large warehouses with stable inventory | Quick top-up when stock runs low |
