Six funding shapes
6 ways Missoula County businesses cover wages, stock, machines and growth, grouped by how each is repaid or collected.
Working Capital
Short money for wages, rent and supplier bills that fall due before your own customers pay.
Business Term Loans
A single sum for a fit-out, a second site or a refinance, paid back on a fixed schedule.
Business Line of Credit
A limit you draw against when a bill lands; paying it down frees the room again.
Inventory Financing
Cash for stock or parts bought before they sell, usually secured by the goods.
Equipment Financing
Loans, leases and finance agreements for excavators, ovens, dental chairs and work trucks.
Merchant Cash Advance
A sale of future card or bank receipts, not a loan. Total the full remittance before you sign.

The word Advances sits in our name, but Ivybend Advances is a broker, not a lender. We do not hand out money, approve applications or price offers.
Our part comes before a partner sees anything. We ask what the funding will pay for and what will pay it back, explain how the structures that fit behave, and send the request only to partners that write that structure. If an offer comes back, the contract is between your business and that partner. No one can tell you ahead of time whether you will be approved, how much you will receive or what it will cost, so treat anyone who promises that with suspicion.
The formal statement of our role is in the broker disclosures; the practical version is the broker process. Longer answers to single questions, such as funding a first hire or a second dental chair, live on the Ivybend blog, and free help that has nothing to do with us is collected in Western Montana small business resources.

How it works
Four steps separate your call from a partner's answer.
Say what it pays for
Ring us, or send the short online form and we ring back. We ask about the purpose then.
Pick a funding shape
The purpose points to a structure, and the structure decides which partners see the file.
The partner underwrites
A lending partner reviews the business, decides, and prices anything it offers.
You choose
Set total cost against payment rhythm. An offer never obliges you to accept.
Send a Short Request
Name, email, phone and business name, three range picks (time in business, annual revenue, amount needed), then a consent tick. That is all. Rather talk? Call (406) 313-8064.
Ivybend Advances connects you with lending partners; partners make credit decisions and set rates and terms. See our Privacy Policy, Terms and SMS Terms.
