Small Business Credit Cards For More Successful Businesses
Small business credit cards are credit instruments that cater
specifically to the needs of small businesses. They are like
your normal credit card except for some changes in interest
rates and features which are optimized for use by small
businesses. They are very useful for small businesses that
desire to streamline their finances and access extra credit.
The numbers of small businesses that use these cards are
ever-growing. A recent report shows that 66% of small businesses
use these cards for purchasing and financing. Forty percent of
this number use their exclusively use credit cards for their
payments. But why should a business apply for one? Are there any
benefits that merit application for such a card? There are many
advantages. Some of them will be outlined below.
For one, these cards allow a business to get hold of good
credit. Good credit is the use of borrowed finances to generate
more cash. In effect, the act of borrowing actually results in
the company earning more. A small business credit card allows
for this. The business then is able to keep hold of finances for
other reasons: investing for interest, for profit, or other
needs the business may have for cold cash. They can pay in easy
installments that will not dent the financial capability of the
business. They can also pay when they are capable of paying.
Another
advantage of using small business credit cards is the
fact that they help make bookkeeping easier. Instead of keeping
a journal of all transactions and receipts, one can have the
credit card company send an itemized list of purchases made
using their credit card. This allows for better bookkeeping and
better accounting. Lost receipts and undocumented expenses can
be avoided. This helps the business make more accurate financial
reports.
Small business credit cards also allow businesses to build up
their credit limit. Small businesses will typically need capital
for new equipment, or to expand their business. A good credit
limit will allow small business to access credit that would
otherwise be inaccessible to small businesses. Bigger capital
opens up the possibility of greater profits.
These cards also offer the option of limiting one business's
spending. This would be very useful for a business that is
keeping a tight watch over its finances.
Small business cards are quickly becoming an efficient way to
increase buying power and capital. With these advantages, it may
soon be that small businesses will regard these small business
credit cards as a necessity.
