Beyond the rate
A lower headline rate means little if you lose flexibility. Highbeam's line is revolving - draw, repay, and draw again without reapplying. That's how working capital should work.
⚡
Instant redraws
Draw again as soon as you've paid down. No reapplication, no new underwriting, no waiting.
💸
No unused line fee
Pay interest only on what you draw. Keeping your line open costs nothing.
🔓
No prepayment penalty
Pay back early and your total cost drops. Most competitors charge the full fee regardless.

Methodology.
Highbeam LOC: daily declining balance. Interest = draw × rate × (term - 1) / (2 × 365). APR shown is the stated rate.
MCA: APR calculated by solving for the periodic IRR (daily rate r where PV of equal payments equals the advance amount), then annualized as r × 365.
ABL / term loan: declining balance adjusted for payment frequency (daily = 365 periods, weekly = 52, monthly = 12).
