How Revenue-Based Financing Works

Revenue-based financing can use a repayment structure tied to a percentage of business revenue rather than a traditional fixed-payment loan structure.

Actual repayment frequency, total cost, factor rate, term, guarantees, and underwriting standards depend on the specific financing provider and approved offer.
