Hicksville grew up around a Long Island Rail Road stop in the Town of Oyster Bay. If you run a business there and need $25,000 to $5,000,000 in working capital, this is how it works and where cash usually gets tight.
Apply Now →Hicksville is an unincorporated hamlet in Nassau County, inside the Town of Oyster Bay, with 43,869 residents at the 2020 census. Valentine Hicks, a later president of the Long Island Rail Road, bought land here and turned it into a station stop; the place then served as a produce depot and filled in as a suburb after World War II. Residents tried to incorporate as a village in 1953 and never did, so the hamlet has no village hall of its own.
For a business owner that history shows up as a mix: shops and offices that live off people moving through town, plus trades and services that drive out to the surrounding houses. Both patterns produce cash gaps that are predictable once you map them.
| Business type | How the gap forms | What working capital covers |
|---|---|---|
| Storefront near the station | Foot traffic is steady but thin in slow weeks; rent and payroll are not | Covering fixed costs through a slow stretch, or stocking ahead of a busy one |
| Service contractor | Materials and crews are paid now, the customer pays at completion | Bridging the weeks between buying supplies and collecting |
| Professional or medical office | Clients and insurers pay on their own schedule | Payroll and lease while receivables come in |
| Restaurant or caterer | Suppliers want weekly payment, receipts arrive daily and unevenly | Inventory, a kitchen repair, or a second shift of staff |
Round numbers for illustration only: a contractor who spends $18,000 on materials and labor in March and is paid in April has to carry that $18,000 for weeks. That is a timing problem, not a profit problem, and it is the kind of gap short-term working capital is built for. These figures are examples, not our terms.

Different gaps call for different tools. A seasonal cash dip usually points to working capital or a business line of credit. A purchase you can name, such as an oven, a lift or a dental chair, points to equipment financing. Larger one-time projects tend to fit term loans, and a revenue-based option is the merchant cash advance. If the bill is due this week, see fast funding in Hicksville.
By trade, we also keep pages for restaurants, construction and healthcare businesses. Neighboring hamlets such as Levittown and Oceanside work the same way, and the wider picture is on our Nassau County page.
No. We look at the business, its bank statements and its owner, not whether the address sits in a village or a hamlet. A Hicksville mailing address inside Nassau County is simply where the business operates.
Your bank statements tell that story. A few months of deposits that arrive in lumps after completion is normal for the trades, and it is exactly the pattern working capital is meant to smooth out.
No. We ask for about three months of business bank statements instead of tax returns.
A FICO of 500+ is considered, and the first credit check is a soft pull, so applying does not add a hard inquiry to your report at that stage.
Size the request to the gap you are covering. If a slow month leaves a $20,000 hole in payroll and rent, asking for something near that is easier to justify than a number picked for comfort. The range we work in is $25,000 to $5,000,000.
Three months of business bank statements and a 5-minute application. FICO 500+ considered. $25,000 to $5,000,000, funded in as little as 24 hours.
