What is Debt Crowdfunding?

Our debt crowdfunding platform is a funding marketplace which connects businesses seeking funds directly with investors looking for fixed income returns. For investors, this is often an attractive investment option as it offers high returns compared to other type of debt investments. Businesses are able to get access to quick funding, at reasonable rates of interest, without needing to put up collateral.

How Debt Crowdfunding works

1
An eligible business applies for business financing by submitting the required documents.
2
Our credit and risk teams review each application objectively and fairly.
3
Our established investor network crowdfunds the business on the platform.
4
After crowdfunding, the funds get disbursed to the business immediately.
