A working capital line of credit is a revolving facility: draw, repay, and redraw as cash needs shift. Rho gives qualifying startups up to $5M, funded in 24 to 48 hours after approval, with up to 180 days to repay each draw. It's one product, built into your Rho account from application through repayment.

- Repaying restores your available credit
- Up to $5M, with larger facilities considered case by case
- Repayment terms up to 180 days per draw
Founders often confuse the two, since both show up as "debt" options next to venture capital. The difference is what each is built to do. A working capital line of credit is short-term and operational: cover a slow month, bridge a customer payment that's running late, and it's meant to be drawn, repaid, and drawn again. Venture debt is a larger, longer facility built to extend runway alongside a funding round, and it typically comes from a specialized lender rather than a company's own bank. Rho Capital is a different product: a revolving line against your business cash flow, not a term loan or a venture-debt facility. If your business needs a fast way to smooth cash flow between now and your next invoice, a working capital line is the tool built for that. If you're extending runway around a funding round, venture debt is a different conversation, usually with your board and your preferred lenders at the table.
- Venture debt: typically a term loan structure, often with equity warrants
- Rho Capital: revolving credit line with per-draw terms up to 180 days
- Venture debt is generally sized off your last equity round; Rho Capital is sized by underwriting and not preset or guaranteed
- If you need repeatable short-cycle credit, a revolving line fits the cycle you are actually financing
Rho's working capital line of credit is evaluated through underwriting, on the shape of the business today, not a preset checklist of years in operation or a specific revenue floor. LLCs, corporations, and newer companies without years of financial history can all apply. In practice, that makes it a workable line of credit for a new business without years of financials, not just for established companies. You'll need the basics any lender asks for: an EIN, your formation documents, and details on the people who own the business. Startups that only have an EIN and no trading history yet are a common case, not an edge case. Sized by underwriting also means there's no single number that guarantees approval or rules a company out; a younger company with strong, verifiable cash flow can qualify for a meaningful line even without a long track record.
