Running a hearing aid dealership or audiology practice takes significant capital. Inventory alone can cost $1,000 to $7,000 or more per pair at wholesale prices, and that is before factoring in diagnostic equipment, soundproof testing booths, staffing, or the 30-to-90-day gaps that come with Medicare and insurance reimbursements. Traditional banks often do not understand the audiology business model, which leaves many practice owners without the financing they need to grow.

Audiological equipment is expensive. A clinical audiometer can cost $5,000 to $15,000. Real-ear measurement systems, tympanometers, video otoscopes, and soundproof testing booths add tens of thousands more. With Crestmont's equipment financing, you preserve your cash flow while acquiring the tools that set your practice apart from competitors.
Equipment financing spreads the cost over time with predictable monthly payments, so you can invest in the latest technology without draining your operating account.
A business line of credit gives you a revolving credit facility you can draw from whenever you need it and only pay interest on what you use. For hearing aid dealers, this is particularly useful for:

Many hearing aid practice owners come to us after being turned down by their bank. We understand that business credit scores do not always reflect the true health of a business, especially in a service industry with delayed insurance payments. We evaluate your overall business performance, cash flow, and time in operation. Bad credit does not disqualify you.
Newer practices can qualify for small business financing with Crestmont. Businesses operating for as few as 6 months may be eligible for working capital loans or a business line of credit. The requirements vary by loan type, and our team will help you find the best fit.
Our working capital loans and business lines of credit are unsecured, meaning you do not have to pledge your equipment, inventory, or personal assets to get approved. Equipment financing is secured by the equipment itself, so it does not require additional collateral either.
Through Crestmont Capital, hearing aid dealers and audiology practices can borrow from $20,000 up to $50 million depending on the loan type. Working capital loans go up to $500,000. SBA loans can reach $50 million for qualifying businesses.
Working capital loans and business lines of credit can fund within 24 hours of approval. SBA loans take longer due to government processing requirements, typically 30 to 90 days. Equipment financing typically funds in 2 to 5 business days.
Yes. Working capital loans and term loans have no restrictions on use. You can purchase inventory from any supplier, including Phonak, Oticon, Widex, Signia, Starkey, ReSound, or any other hearing aid brand you carry.
The initial pre-qualification does not require a hard credit pull. A hard inquiry is only conducted once you agree to move forward with a specific loan offer. We keep the process transparent so you know exactly what to expect.
We look at your total business cash flow, which can include cash sales, insurance reimbursements, and any other revenue your practice generates. Insurance delays will not automatically disqualify you. We understand the reimbursement cycle in audiology and evaluate your business accordingly.

Expansion is one of the most common reasons audiology practice owners come to us. Depending on the size of the investment, we can structure a working capital loan, an SBA loan, or a term loan to fund your second location, including lease deposits, fit-out costs, equipment, and initial inventory.
