While multiple factors can contribute to an organization's financial downfall, insufficient cash flow is typically the primary trigger for bankruptcy proceedings. If you tolerate slow payments at the beginning of the relationship, it will be harder to get them to change their habits later. Need help improving cash flow?
On the other end of the spectrum, you have secured business creditcards. With secured business creditcards, cardholders need to put down a refundable cash deposit for collateral.

Timely repayment across all types of credit. Details about late payments, such as why those payments were late, how recently they occurred, amount owed, and how many overall late payments are on your record. Bankruptcies, liens, foreclosures, and lawsuits. Credit Utilization. Defaulting on a loan.
Personal liability means that you’re personally responsible for paying off your business creditcard debt in case the primary payer—aka your business—can’t. That personal liability is why you’ll be prompted to fill in personal information, including your Social Security Number, on your business creditcard application.
For example, if you have a $73 creditcardpayment, add $7 to make it an even $80. In addition to making double payments next month, you’ll have to pay a late fee money you could have used to reduce your balance. Setting up automatic payments on your accounts is the easiest way to avoid late fees.
Financing companies provide a lump sum of cash, which they calculate according to your business’s creditcard receivables. In return, that financing company takes a percentage of your creditcard sales. Collateralized loans are less risky to lenders, since they have a built-in safety net in case a borrower defaults.
