Ottawa-based ProntoForms has entered into a new financing deal with BDC Capital.
The deal will see BDC Capital, a subsidiary of the Business Development Bank of Canada, lend ProntoForms up to $4 million as part of a five-year secured term credit facility.
The company says the money will be used for operations and working capital as well as to pay back an existing $1-million loan from BDC Capital which is due in December 2017.
