The Small Business Administration’s Paycheck Protection Program loan launched on Friday, April 3—to a very mixed bag of results.

Banks and lenders were hard-pressed to get systems and application processes in place before the deadline, having only received further guidelines about how to actually issue and process the loans late on the eve of the program’s launch. And as of early Friday morning, the day of the launch, only one major bank—Bank of America—was able to begin accepting applications on its portal.

Since then, several banks and other lenders have begun accepting applications. You can also use the SBA’s resource to find lenders in your area. Here’s where you can currently apply:

Banks

Bank of America was the first major bank to get its portal up and running around 9 a.m. ET on Friday. Applicants can apply for the PPP loan on the BofA site.

JPMorgan Chase followed suit about midday on Friday, opening up applications for small businesses, after initially telling customers the bank would not be accepting them on Friday. The bank’s website says it is currently processing applications, but you can apply here.

Wells Fargo is accepting expressions of interest in the PPP loans from customers with a business checking account, following support from the Fed to help the bank expand its lending program. However, Wells Fargo encourages customers on its website to look for alternative lenders for the SBA loan.

Sunrise Banks is now accepting PPP loan applications on its site. You can apply here.

Silicon Valley Bank, or SVB, is participating in the SBA PPP loan program, and is now accepting applications.

Regional banks

Ameris Bank is currently accepting PPP loan applications on its site. The bank services Alabama, Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina, and has mortgage-only locations in Alabama, Georgia, Florida, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, and Tennessee.

PNC Bank is currently accepting PPP loan applications from applicants with an existing business deposit or lending relationship with PNC, according to its site. You can apply here.

Blue Ridge Bank, based in Virginia, has now opened up its PPP loan application process. Those with an account at Blue Ridge can apply here.

Midwest BankCentre is now accepting PPP loan applications. You can apply through your relationship manager or local branch, or apply through the bank’s site and email the application following the instructions.

US Bank is now accepting PPP loan applications from those who filled out an inquiry form on its site. The bank is starting with emailing current US Bank customers, beginning with single-owner businesses. The bank will be accepting non–US Bank client applicants as well, but encourages applicants to use a bank they already have a relationship with.

West Town Bank & Trust is currently accepting pre-application forms for the PPP loan, and applicants will receive an email once applications are accepted.

Univest Bank and Trust Co., headquartered in Pennsylvania, is currently accepting applications from current Univest customers only.

Old National’s existing clients with an active account or loan prior to March 31 can apply for the PPP loan now. Applicants can also apply by contacting their existing Old National commercial loan officer.

Pinnacle Bank is now accepting applications for the PPP loan. The bank recommends reaching out to your Pinnacle financial adviser or a branch. You can find more information here.
