Venture capital (VC) funding is the traditional route for startups to take when seeking funds to support growth, but 'Alternative Capital' is positioned as another option for businesses to help them get off the ground.
The company will provide non-dilutive debt capital ranging from $25,000 all the way up to one million to help businesses accelerate their growth instead of relying on VCs. The lending protocol will enable startups to feel less weary about the money they receive and keep the ownership that they might otherwise be required to provide to VCs providing funds.
'Alternative Capital' utilizes a revenue-based lending system, and works by having startups apply, interview and receive funding after being approved by the company.
