Frequently asked questions

First evaluate your needs and resources. Then look at each TD loan product and the applicable terms for each.

  • Short-term needs loan (Small Business Line of Credit/Business Overdraft Protection): Ideal for ongoing cash flow needs, like buying inventory, covering payroll, or bridging the gap between payments and repaying suppliers. 
  • Long-term needs loan (Small Business Loan): Ideal for one-time purchases or expansions, like buying equipment, making leasehold improvements, or purchasing/refinancing real estate. 

A business loan is usually for larger, one-time needs—while a line of credit gives you flexibility for day-to-day expenses. With a loan, you reduce the balance over time, but with a line of credit, you can borrow, repay, and borrow again up to your credit limit.


TD typically considers the following criteria when reviewing credit requests:

  • Character
