Will applying with my credit report affect my credit score?

No. To make a credit decision, we will do a soft pull which does not affect your credit score as there are several professional ways we evaluate credit worthiness. We may do additional due diligence in future credit reviews, but these will not affect your credit score either.

To qualify, you’ll need at least 3 months of transaction history in a business checking account, $100,000 or more in annual revenue, and a personal credit score above 600. We cannot guarantee that you will be approved if you meet these criteria, but they are good general indicators about eligibility for Westover Holdings credit. Westover Holdings services are currently available to businesses based in the 50 U.S. states, Guam, American Samoa, North Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, and U.S. Virgin Islands.   Apply at (https://westoverholdingsllc.com/en/pages/application.html)

I was approved for a Westover Holdings escrow account! Now what?

If you’re approved for Westover Holdings funding, we will send you an email with a link to log in to your account. The first thing you’ll see is your dashboard. This is the main screen you will see every time you log in to your Westover Holdings account. Here, you’ll be able to draw funds, and you'll be able to track transactions you’ve made through Westover Holdings.

How soon can I start using Westover Holdings after I’m approved?

Right away! As soon as we notify you that you're approved, you can log in and draw funds once you pay o3f the loan origination/closing fee. When you draw on your loan funding, funds should arrive within 2 business days.

What if I don't need the funds right now?

If you don't need the funds, we recommend that you wait to apply until you do. If you do not draw funds at least once, close to the date you are approved, we may need to close your account. In that case, you would still be able to reapply later.

I was not approved. Now what?

If you received an email saying that you were not approved, don't worry, your credit score was not affected and you still may become eligible in the future.    The data you provided is in our system and it may be periodically reassessed to see if you become eligible.    If you choose to disconnect your data source from Westover Holdings so that your eligibility is not periodically reviewed, that’s fine too. You can always reapply in the future. We recommend growing your business for at least 90 days before reapplying.

BANK ACCOUNT QUESTIONS FAQ

Why do you need my bank account details?

You’ll need to provide a business checking account in order for Westover Holdings to determine a funding decision.  
If approved, this business checking account will also be used to send funds when you draw, and debit funds when it comes time to make payments. Transactional information from your account may also be included in reviews of your credit limit.
We never have access to your bank credentials and we take every precaution to protect your privacy and the security of your data.  

Which banks does Westover Holdings

We support about 11,000 banks around the U.S. and territories. We do not support Bluebird, Green Dot, American Express Centurion Bank or Payoneer.

How long does it take for my funds to arrive in my bank account?

You can expect funds to arrive within 2 business days of when you draw.

What is multi-factor authentication (MFA)?

Multi-factor authentication (MFA) means you need to prove you’re you in at least two different ways. Banks use MFA to keep your account secure. 
The first way you prove you’re you is by entering your username and password. The second way can be by entering a verification code sent to your phone, entering a verification code from an authenticator app on your phone, or answering a pre-set security question.
If your bank account’s connection to your Westover Holdings account is interrupted due to your bank’s MFA requirements, we’ll let you know and help you get reconnected.

Does my bank account stay connected to Westover Holdings? What if I want to disconnect it?

No but however, we need to stay connected to your business checking account as the transactional information from your bank account is used to determine the initial funding decision, as well as any future reviews that may take place on the account.  If it becomes disconnected for any reason, we’ll let you know and help you connect it again.  Please note, keeping your banking information disconnected from Westover Holdings may prevent you from drawing funds, and having this information included in future reviews of the credit limit. If you connected your bank account when you applied to Westover Holdings, but were not approved, you can disconnect it by contacting Support at support@westoverholdingsllc.com (mailto:support@westoverholdingsllc.com) Monday–Friday, 8am to 7pm ET

REPAYMENT TERMS FAQ

Does Westover Holdings report payment information to credit bureaus?

There are two types of credit bureaus: business credit bureaus and consumer credit bureaus. Business bureaus, or commercial credit bureaus, collect and maintain credit information about businesses and their payment history.  Consumer bureaus specialize in collecting and managing credit information related to individual consumers, and provide individual credit reports and credit scores like FICO and Vantage.  It's important to understand the differences between these two types of institutions, how Westover Holdings chooses to work with them, and what that could mean for our customers. 
Westover Holdings reports both on-time and missed payment information to business credit bureaus monthly via the Small Business Financial Exchange (SBFE), which reports to Equifax, Experian, and Dun & Bradstreet. A business credit score--which is based on a company's ability to manage credit and make payments on time--is a marker of the creditworthiness of a business. Westover Holdings may also report past due accounts to Experian's consumer credit bureau.

How can I dispute credit information that Westover Holdings has reported to the credit bureaus?

If you disagree with any information that is shown on your credit report, you have the right to dispute it. You may submit a formal dispute directly with Westover Holdings or dispute information on your credit report to the bureaus. For business bureaus, we report to SBFE who shares information with Experian, Equifax, and Dun & Bradstreet. For consumer credit reports, we report to Experian. If you would like to file a dispute directly with Westover Holdings, you may contact us via: Phone: (855) 908-3533 Email: bureau-disputes@westoverholdingsllc.com (mailto:bureau-disputes@westoverholdingsllc.com) Mail:  5760 Legacy Dr. Suite B3-535 Plano, TX 75024
After we receive notice, our team will investigate your dispute and notify you of the result via email within 30 calendar days. We may reach out to you for additional supporting documentation to help us with your investigation. 

Are payments debited automatically?

No. Payments are made instalmentally each month of your weekly payment plan. We receive your payments automatically on your monthly scheduled due dates, from the CFO business checking account used in payment of the loan origination/closing fees .

What are the terms for repaying Westover Holdings?

When you draw funds, you will be able to choose a repayment plan and review the exact terms for that draw including the number of weekly payments and the fee structure. Debits are made automatically one day per week on your scheduled due dates. You can consult the Payment Details section of your dashboard to see which day of the week your payments will be debited.    Weekly payments are debited automatically at 10am PT from the business checking account you provided, though it might take a few days to appear on your bank statement.  
If you would like to switch the bank account for auto debiting, anticipate not having enough funds in your account to cover the debit, or any other questions that might affect the upcoming debit, please give us a call at (PHONE NUMBER” before 9am PT on the day that the debit is scheduled for.   We recommend making these changes from your dashboard or calling in the day before your scheduled debit to make sure we're able to handle your request in time.

What is the difference between a third party payoff and repaying early?

Repaying early means that you are repaying some or all of your outstanding balance before the end of your repayment plan(s). 
There is no prepayment penalty and we will waive the remaining fees for the weeks you did not use.  
A third party payoff means that a third party is paying off your entire outstanding balance.    
If a third party is paying your outstanding balance, you’ll want to ask for a payoff letter.  The balance listed on the payoff letter includes the total outstanding principal, one week of fees, and two weeks of additional fees while we wait for the payoff. (If the payoff is received in less than 2 weeks, we will refund some of the fees.)
Payoff payments are generally sent to us in the form of a wire or physical check.  If your lender would like to send us a check, please let us know at support@westoverholdingsllc.com (mailto:support@westoverholdingsllc.com) and we’ll be happy to provide you with information on that process.  
Please note, that for the payoff period, we will suspend your account to keep the balance accurate in preparation for receiving the payoff.

What does "Pending ACH confirmation" mean?

"Pending ACH confirmation" means that Westover Holdings sent the funds and is waiting for your bank to verify that the loan origination/closing fees were received. While you may have already received the funds, the verification process can take up to 2-3 business days.   Once we get confirmation that the funds were received, you'll be able to see your repayment options for that draw.
