Florist financing — keep every arrangement blooming
Loot offers florists an unsecured business line of credit from $5,000 to $100,000. Use it to cover fresh stock, delivery vehicles and wedding-season payroll, or give your shop the room to stock up ahead of Valentine's Day and Mother's Day without draining the cash needed for everything else. Established florists with 1+ year in business and $200K+ in annual revenue can check their options with a soft pull. Requests up to $30K get an instant decision, while larger requests may take a few more minutes.


Florist challenges: perishable stock, seasonal swings and delivery costs
Florists have to buy fresh flowers days before a holiday or wedding, and unsold stock can wilt into a loss within a week. Valentine's Day, Mother's Day and wedding season can each demand a huge stock-up and extra delivery staff, while the weeks between those peaks can be quiet. Delivery vans need fuel, insurance and repairs, and a breakdown during a big weekend can mean missed orders.

Where a florist line of credit does the heavy lifting
Six moments when florist cash flow needs backup — and how a Loot line of credit can help.
Stock up on fresh flowers ahead of a holiday rush
Valentine's Day, Mother's Day and other big flower holidays require ordering significantly more stock than usual, days or weeks before those blooms sell. A line of credit can help cover the stock-up without pulling cash away from payroll or delivery costs.
Staff and prep for wedding season
Wedding season often means extra designers, delivery drivers and prep hours booked well before the ceremony happens and the invoice gets paid. A line of credit can help cover payroll and materials so a shop can take on more weddings without a cash crunch.
Repair or replace a delivery vehicle
A broken-down delivery van can mean missed orders on the biggest sales weekend of the year. A line of credit can help cover a repair or a rental fast, so arrangements still go out the door on time.
Cover the gap between wilted stock and slow weeks
Unsold flowers lose their value fast, and the weeks between major holidays can be quiet while rent and payroll keep going. A revolving line can help smooth the gap between a big event weekend and a slower stretch.
Take on a large event or corporate contract
A big wedding, corporate account or venue contract can mean ordering significantly more flowers and hardgoods upfront, before that client pays the final invoice. A line of credit can help a florist take on bigger business without straining day-to-day cash.
Upgrade coolers and cold storage
Walk-in coolers and refrigerated display cases keep flowers fresh longer, but a failing unit can spoil an entire stock order overnight. A line of credit can help cover a repair or upgrade before inventory is lost.
How a florist line of credit helps
A business line of credit for florists provides flexible capital for fresh stock, delivery and seasonal staffing. Draw loot when needed, repay as sales come in, and keep every arrangement blooming.

How a Loot line of credit works for a florist
Say your shop needs $15,000 to stock up on flowers ahead of Mother's Day, book extra delivery drivers, and cover a cooler repair. With Loot, you can draw $15,000 from your approved line.
Before you confirm, you choose a fixed weekly repayment plan upfront, such as 16, 20, or 24 weeks. You see the total cost before you move forward.
If holiday sales come in sooner than expected and you pay the draw off early, there is no prepayment penalty. Paying off early can save up to 50% of remaining fees.
As you repay, your line revolves — the funds become available again as you pay down the draw. Same-day approval is standard, decisions happen in minutes, and once approved, same-day funding is available for a $49 transfer fee.
Requirements for florist financing
To qualify with Loot, your florist business needs:
1+ years
$200k+
None
Checking eligibility is a soft pull, so it does not impact your credit score, approved or not. Loot looks at real business cash flow, not just a credit score.
