At FAST, our approach to business funding is built around speed, flexibility, and strategy. One of the most effective methods we use is credit card stacking—a proven way to access significant amounts of unsecured capital quickly, without the red tape of traditional loans. By strategically opening multiple high-limit credit cards—often with introductory 0% APR offers—we help you create a pool of funding that can be used immediately for marketing, inventory, equipment, or expansion. This approach gives you the freedom to grow your business on your terms, with fast approvals and a simple process designed to move at the speed of your goals.
What is Credit Card Stacking?
Credit card stacking is a business funding strategy that allows you to open multiple high-limit credit cards—often with introductory 0% APR periods—at the same time. By “stacking” these cards, you can create a large pool of capital for your business without relying on a single loan or credit line.
✅ Fast Access to Funds — Usually in 2–4 weeks.
✅ Unsecured Capital — No collateral required.
✅ Flexible Use — Marketing, inventory, equipment, or expansion.
Benefits of Credit Card Stacking
What is the Benefit of Credit Card Stacking Over Other Types of Funding?
Credit card stacking offers several unique advantages compared to small business loans, lines of credit, or investor financing:
- Fast Funding Approval – In many cases, approvals and funding can be completed in 15 business days.
- No Collateral Needed – Unlike traditional loans, there’s no requirement to put up personal or business assets.
- 0% Interest Intro Periods – Many cards offer 6–18 months of interest-free business financing, giving you time to reinvest every dollar into growth.
- Full Spending Flexibility – Unlike certain bank loans, stacked credit cards can be used for marketing, equipment, inventory, or any operational need.
- Credit Building – Responsible use can help build both your personal and business credit profile, improving future funding opportunities.
These benefits make credit card funding one of the most flexible, fast, and accessible business financing options available today.
💡 Why it matters: This is one of the most flexible, fast, and equity-free ways to secure capital.
