The story in short
- 15 invoices funded since May 2024
- 12 of 29 months with an invoice funded since May 2024
- 8 invoices funded in 2025, their busiest year
- 2 increases to their funding limit
The gap
Their biggest contract buyer is a national TV shopping channel that has always paid, but on long terms.
Meanwhile they buy materials and make the product up front, so cash goes out well before it comes back.
How they use FundTap
They use FundTap selectively rather than every month: 12 of the 29 months since their first funded invoice.
That’s 15 invoices on 14 funding days, eight of them in 2025.
