🔒 Soft credit pull · will not affect your credit score

Reviewed by the Toast Funding team · Updated July 2026

What is restaurant working capital?

Restaurant working capital is flexible funding for day-to-day operations — payroll, inventory, repairs, rent, or a slow stretch — approved on your revenue and card sales rather than perfect credit (FICO 500+). Toast Funding funds $25,000 to $2,000,000 in 1-3 business days, with payments that can flex to your sales.

Frequently asked questions

Can I qualify with bad credit?
Yes — approval leans on your revenue and card sales, so FICO 500+ regularly qualifies.
How fast can I get working capital?
Most restaurants fund in 1-3 business days once we have your bank statements.
Do payments flex with my sales?
Yes — many restaurants choose payments that scale with card volume, easing slow weeks.
Will checking my options affect my credit score?
No. Prequalifying uses a soft credit pull that does not affect your score. A hard pull only happens if you accept an offer.
What can I use the funds for?
Payroll, inventory, repairs, rent, marketing, or covering a slow season — no restrictions.
Are there any upfront or application fees?
No. Applying and getting a decision is free. Any fees are disclosed in your offer before you accept.
