As of April 15, many small businesses are getting turned away because the $359 billion of Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) funding has been exhausted. But that doesn’t mean the program is over! Congress is expected to pass a $484 billion relief package on Thursday, including about $350 billion to replenish the PPP loan program.
Many businesses are having trouble applying for the PPP because they must have had a business checking account before February 15, 2020. However, what if you don’t have a business checking account? Or like me, is with a bank that doesn’t offer the PPP program.
I will offer you a few alternatives. Below is a list of banks and fintech lenders that are accepting applications from new customers.
U.S. Bank
Fill out an inquiry form to start the PPP application process with U.S. Bank. Currently, they are accepting applications from non-customers.
Lendio
You can apply for a PPP loan on Lendio’s homepage. They are accepting applications from new customers.
Kabbage
Kabbage is still accepting and reviewing PPP loan applications. You can fill out a new customer form on its website.
Blue Vine
Blue Vine is a fintech lender that is currently processing PPP loans. You can access their form on its website.
Fountainhead
