Our take
Alternative, non-dilutive financing options for startups and other businesses is a white hot market right now, and Capchase is hoping to ride the crest of this wave with a variety of finance automation products for startups.
Unlike traditional venture debt players, Capchase has focused on providing non-dilutive financing based solely on the demonstration of recurring revenue. The company has looked to outflank new players also rapidly growing in the space like Pipe and Nova Capital, by launching new finance automation products specifically tailored to expense financing as well as a buy-now-pay-later option for businesses as well.
The company's greatest challenge, as stated by back in 2021, likely remains to win out against venture debt. That said, as more and more startups seek non-dilutive financing, Capchase has managed to sustain steady growth, and was named as one of Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies of 2023.
