Establish credit and loan terms in writing: Revolving Credit Agreement
What is a Revolving Credit Agreement?
A Revolving Credit Agreement is a contract between a lender and a trusted borrower, providing the latter with a revolving line of credit. Revolving Credit Agreements give the borrower access to a fixed amount of credit they can use over a period of time – once it’s spent, it must be paid before additional charges are applied.
Revolving Credit Agreements are beneficial for both parties involved, as borrowers do not have to pay for a lump sum loan every time they want to use credit, and lenders may gain a long-lasting and high-paying customer.
A Revolving Credit Agreement is pretty simple, and is often just between an individual seller or store and a customer. Whether you’re looking to sell items on an extended timeline to trustworthy buyers or you’re looking to purchase goods on credit, a revolving credit line can help make business a little easier for both buyers and sellers.
