Big Think Capital

Broker Melville, NY Founded 2017 Checked Sep 10, 2026
Big Think Capital is a Melville, New York brokerage that matches small businesses with outside lenders for working capital, term loans, lines of credit, SBA loans, equipment financing, invoice factoring and e-commerce funding. Published amounts start at $10,000, and it says approvals can come in as little as 24 hours.
Heads up. Big Think arranges funding through banks, credit unions and other lenders rather than funding deals itself, so rates and terms are set by the lender. Its invoice factoring page lists a factor fee of 1% to 5% of invoice value.
