Startup Funding FAQs
Executive answers for founders managing their cap table.
Do you require collateral or a personal guarantee?
It depends on the specific lender and loan product. Revenue-based financing often relies solely on a UCC lien against business assets, avoiding personal guarantees. However, traditional term loans for newer startups may require the founder to sign a personal guarantee.
My startup is pre-profit. Can I still qualify?
Yes. Unlike traditional banks that demand historical EBITDA and profitability, startup lenders evaluate your Monthly Recurring Revenue (MRR), burn rate, and capital sufficiency. If you are burning cash but have strong, predictable revenue growth, you can often qualify.
What is Venture Debt?
Venture debt is a specialized loan for startups that have already raised venture capital. It provides extra runway without diluting the founders as much as an equity round. While venture debt usually involves warrants (a small equity kicker), standard startup loans and revenue advances do not.
