Kabbage’s online lending platform is now available for GoDaddy’s U.S. customers, providing access to a business line of credit in minutes.

By completing a simple application process from Kabbage, customers can quickly access flexible lines of credit of up to $250,000 in minutes if approved.

GoDaddy customers can access this extra cash flow, just in time to staff up for the busy holiday season, purchase additional inventory or invest strategically to support their growing businesses.

“Working every day with our small business customers has made us intimately familiar with what our customers are doing to successfully grow their business, as well as common challenges. We know that a lack of capital for marketing and other core activities remains a major roadblock to accelerate growth. Our partnership with Kabbage is key in our ongoing mission to empower our customers and provide them with the resources they need to fuel their business needs.”

How Small Business Owners Overcome Obstacles

GoDaddy and Kabbage’s survey of over 500 entrepreneurs showed how small business owners overcome obstacles in growing their business.

Sixty percent of respondents experienced an increase in revenues after investing in online advertising. Other notable findings include:

• Having a website for their business is the most helpful digital tool for growing and expanding (43 percent), followed by social media marketing (35 percent).
• By investing in online advertising, 44 percent of respondents reported an uplift in sales as high as 25 percent.
• When asked about roadblocks to growing their company’s digital presence or online advertising, close to 50 percent chose a lack of money as the most significant impediment.

No Fees and Special Offer for GoDaddy Customers

There are no fees to apply for Kabbage Funding through GoDaddy. Moreover, qualified small business owners are not obligated to make withdrawals, meaning their line of credit will be there when they need it and they won’t pay anything until they access funds.

As a special courtesy to existing GoDaddy customers, small business owners can take advantage of $100 off their first month’s fees.

This hassle-free approach to lending allows small businesses the flexibility to seamlessly manage their cash flow along with their other services from GoDaddy.
