    How matching works

    • Tell us about your business, your financing needs and where you operate.
    • We compare your application with each lender's criteria, including whether they lend in Kentucky.
    • Matched lenders review your application and can send offers or questions through your dashboard.
    • You compare offers side by side and choose, with no obligation to accept.

    Documents to have ready

    • Business bank statements (often the last 3–6 months)
    • Recent business and personal tax returns
    • Profit and loss statement and balance sheet
    • Ownership details for anyone owning 20% or more

    Common questions

    Do all lenders lend in Kentucky?
    No. Many lenders only fund businesses in certain states. Direct Credit only matches your application with lenders whose criteria include Kentucky.
    Are SBA loans available in Kentucky?
    Yes. SBA 7(a) and 504 loans are available nationwide through SBA-approved lenders, including for Kentucky businesses.
    Does applying affect my credit?
    Applying doesn't affect your credit score: lenders review your credit with a soft inquiry. A hard inquiry happens only if you accept an offer and the lender asks for one.
