Cash flow is the money moving in and out of your business from day-to-day operations. Sound cash flow management is vital to helping your business run smoothly. Healthy cash flow means you can access funds that allow your business to operate.
With a loan, you’re given the amount in a lump sum and charged interest on the whole amount. You then pay off the loan over time. Loans are generally for when you need to make a purchase upfront and in full.
A cash flow solution (e.g. a Business Overdraft or Stream Working Capital) is linked to your transaction account and allows you to access additional funds when your account balance reaches zero. You only pay interest when you use the money, and only on the amount you use. Cash flow solutions are a way of making sure money is there if you need it. For example, to manage unexpected expenses.
