PayPal Pulls Back on Small Business
In recent developments, PayPal has tightened its qualifications and reduced approvals for its loan and Merchant Cash Advance (MCA) offerings. This strategic shift comes after a period of liberal lending practices, which, while initially beneficial to many businesses, led to increased defaults and strained financial conditions. Since 2013 PayPal had expanded its reach significantly, originating 1.2M loans amounting to $25B globally, the scale of its pullback impacts a broad spectrum of businesses seeking capital.
The Challenge
PayPal's decision reflects a broader trend of recalibration within the business lending sector. The company's adjustment in its lending strategy, aiming to manage credit risk more prudently by tightening loan and MCA originations, marks a significant pivot from its previous approach. This change underscores the challenges businesses face in acquiring funding through traditional and non-traditional lenders alike, especially those that previously relied on PayPal for quick, flexible financing options.
