You literally don't care how much interest you have to pay on a loan? If there were more people as naive as you about I'd start my own loan company. | Except it's not ****ing interest. Jesus, man. Get that through your head already. And you sure as **** aren't getting a business loan from a bank , from scratch, in 5 minutes.

2.
money paid regularly at a particular rate for the use of money lent, or for delaying the repayment of a debt.
"the monthly rate of interest"
synonyms: dividends, profits, returns
Just because they don't publish an APR that doesn't mean you're not being charged interest.
I'm done discussing loans with someone who didn't think it was possible to calculate APR on a loan term less than 1 year anyway.

If I need cash, I look at the cost of that cash, and how much profit I can make using that cash, and how much I'd lose out by not having that cash. Simple business skills.
Go tell all the Muslims you know, that they are in fact paying interest on things that they pay fees on. Last time I checked, fees ARE NOT INTEREST. How is this such a hard concept to understand?
You are not being charged interest, no matter how much you scream it from the roof tops. They are finance charges. Do finance charges get included in your little interest calculations? Ever? By anyone?
You pay a set fee for the purchase of money. Just as you'd pay a fee for the rental of a car. You borrow something from someone, and they charge you a set fee for that borrowing. Is THAT interest too?
And again, as I've tried to explain multiple times now, if you pay the loan off in a month, or in two, or in 6, that CHANGES the total fee you pay. Unlike a credit card or a loan, that gives you a set amount of interest on the entire amount you borrow. So again, your 20%+ number is BULL****

Kabbage currently have an APR of 30-50% depending on how quickly you pay them back. | If you pay it off in a month, you're paying $3 for every $100 you borrow. You might claim they are flowering things up, but you're throwing a whopping pile of cow manure on it instead.
Sorry, if $3 for every $100 borrowed, costs you too much, than whatever you need the money for in the first place, is what is the actual bad deal. Not the loan.
Show me another lender that will let you borrow $10,000, give you the cash in MINUTES, without good credit or collateral, for a couple months, for a measly few $100? You should be able to convert that $10,000 into more than enough money to pay off that fee, with a lot of profit to spare. If not, you have poor business sense.
Borrow that amount of money, for a month, and you pay 5% APR. How's that?? So where exactly did you get your 30-50% from? Like Dan, you pulled it out of thin air.

Yep. If I search 'best mortgage uk' most of the websites will include the initial fee in their calculation for the total APR.
You'll always be paying more than 20% APR on Kabbage no matter how soon you pay it back. Finance charges should always be included in 'little interest calculations', obviously. Quote:

If the only loan you're being offered is 20%+ per year after having an Ebay business for 10 years then I'd say it's probably you who has poor business sense. My bank's have been trying to throw money at me ever since I started selling about 10k per month.

It was my brother in Georgia and I was there. They left several door tags. Eventually he called the police and had a criminal trespass order issued.
He never did pay them. Not a penny. Nothing came from it.

It's not so much about the COST of the money, but the convenience and ability to get it in the first place.
For some people, Kabbage makes sense for them. For the others that it doesn't, there are plenty of alternatives.
There are also plenty of people who don't mind paying 2000% effective APR (or more) for a payday loan, too.

I will gladly borrow $100,000 and pay back $106,000 in a couple months if I made $50,000 in profit.
The dude above complaining about the fees is not looking at it as transnational.
But if I had to choose a transactional lender, it would be Mint Financial or some other private funds, not a bank owned company. I would rather pay some wealthy friends 2-3% than a bank.

I said towards the start of this thread that it can be useful if you're not able to get cash at a lower rate but most people who've had an Ebay business for 10 years (like the OP) should be able to get a better rate.
