What is revenue-based financing?
Revenue-based financing, also known as royalty-based financing, is a financing model in which businesses secure capital from an investor in exchange for a portion of the business’s monthly revenues. Usually, this amount will be a fixed percentage of the business’s revenues.
Naturally, that means that the business will pay more on months when generated revenues are higher, and less when revenues dip. This makes revenue funding optimal for business owners with strong—but fluctuating— gross revenues, or those with highly predictable revenues.
An increasingly popular form of funding, revenue financing is especially popular with tech companies and B2B software-as-a-service (SAAS) companies in particular, as such companies often have subscription-based sales.
Before we delve further into the pros, cons, and eligibility requirements of revenue-based lending, let’s look at the differences between revenue loans and equity or debt-based loans.
Revenue-based funding vs. Other forms of funding (debt and equity)
As mentioned above, revenue financing differs from both equity financing—including venture capital, growth capital and angel investing—and debt financing in notable ways.
Unlike traditional debt financing loans, which typically require fixed monthly payments and a set interest rate, revenue-based investing doesn’t accumulate interest. While the amount you’ll repay for a revenue loan may vary month to month, the percentage you’re paying won’t.
Funding that you receive from venture capitalists or private equity or angel investors, meanwhile, will entitle those investors to partial ownership. Equity financing offers the advantage of a lack of monthly payments, but it also means that you’re committed to forfeiting a portion of your equity, and therefore perhaps forfeiting some of your control over your business.

After dealing with multiple funding companies, this is the only company that presented me an offer with no pressure or false promises. Every other company I spoke with said they could beat Credibly’s offer, but most fail short. This was my second round of funding with Credibly and they are by far the most straightforward merchant cash advance company that I could find. Wherever you go, working capital is expensive and it can be exhausting with all the calls. A lot of other companies I had to report for shopping my information around and pulling my credit without consent. Credibly presented me an offer and allowed me to breath while I made a choice I could only make for my business. Not once did they ask for other companies offers. I am hoping to not need any other cash advances in the future, but this will be the only place if I do.”
Mick Sibinovic is a man of his word. He is very responsive, informative & persistent!! He made me feel like more than just a number, which is why even with multiple other offers I still chose to go with credibly. I reached out first a couple months back and after he diligently worked hard to get me the best funding options, I turned it down. He welcomed me back with open arms this time around. Not only is he partnering with me on a short term strategy but a long term strategy as well. I’m excited to see where my business will go & grow with the help of Mick.”
I run a small business and have utilized multiple other lenders for capital as needed. This is my second time funding with Credibly. Mr. Andrew Jasina did an outstanding job in laying out options for funding. He addressed my questions and was able to find a solution that fit our needs. If you or anyone you know is looking for capital, I would strongly recommend speaking with Andrew @ Credibly.”

Are revenue-based business loans and financing right for you?
We love flexible financing as much as you do. But are small business loans based on revenue right for you?
With the pros and cons of getting a revenue loan, one could say it’s a financing option best suited for established companies that have a steady revenue history and aren’t worried about where revenues will be coming from in the future.
That’s not to say that businesses with inconsistent revenues over the course of the year can’t benefit (such as those with seasonally-fluctuating revenues), but revenue-based financing firms will generally want to see evidence of guaranteed revenues going forward. As stated above, businesses that operate on a subscription model (like SAAS companies) are also great candidates for revenue funding.
Pros
Low credit scores and fluctuating annual revenues are eligible.
Get approved and funded in as little as 48 hours.
No fixed monthly installments to worry about.
Unlike with venture capital, you don’t lose control of your business.
Cons
Flexible payments don’t mean no payments—can your revenue streams support the loan?
Borrowing may get expensive for lower credit scores.
Some small business loans based on revenue may require collateral.
