Bullet Loan

Bullet loans, also referred to as balloon payment loans, come with lower monthly payments, a higher interest rate, and a required lump sum payment at the end of the loan’s term. Sometimes, the monthly payment is interest only and does not apply towards the principal, resulting in the entire principal of the loan plus interest being due at the end of the loan term.Bullet loans are most frequently utilized when a business expects to receive a large inflow of cash at some point in the near future, but they need cash today to continue operations. So they take out a bullet loan with a term that best fits their needs, and they pay it back when they receive said inflow.While bullet loans can be useful for some circumstances, a more founder-friendly alternative is revenue based financing, which enables a company to convert their future revenues into upfront capital.
