The story in short
- 17 invoices funded since August 2026
- 4 funding days across their first 2 months
- 9 invoices funded in August 2026, their busiest month
- 1 increase to their funding limit
The gap
They import drinks from Italy and sell them to restaurants on terms. Some customers pay within a couple of weeks, others take a couple of months.
The festival was the biggest event of their year, so the overseas stock had to be paid for first. The money from the restaurant invoices was due after that bill, not before it.
How they use FundTap
They fund the restaurant invoices as they go and use the cash for the stock order. Most of those invoices are smaller restaurant orders, with a few bigger ones mixed in.
In two months they’ve funded 17 invoices across four funding days, with nine of them in August 2026.
What’s changed
The stock order could be paid for without waiting on the restaurants. Their customers pay them as normal and aren’t contacted.
In their first two months their funding limit has gone up once, so there’s more room for the next order.
