Revenue-Based Financing Providers
Revenue-based financing (RBF) advances capital against a business’s recurring revenue, repaid as a fixed percentage of monthly receipts until a capped return — typically 1.3x to 2x the advance — is reached. For SaaS companies, e-commerce brands, and service businesses with predictable revenue, RBF offers growth capital without equity dilution, personal guarantees, or the rigidity of fixed daily payments.
RBF sits between venture debt and MCA on the cost and flexibility spectrum, and the provider landscape reflects that spread: some providers behave like disciplined institutional lenders, others like repackaged cash-advance shops with friendlier branding. The differences show up in remittance mechanics, true cost of capital across faster-than-expected repayment, renewal pressure, covenant behavior, and what happens when revenue dips below plan.
This directory profiles RBF providers with verified identity, founder and operator ratings, review counts, and structured review data covering the questions that matter: did the funded amount and cap match the term sheet, how did the provider handle a slow month, were payoff quotes honored, and did the provider push aggressive renewals. Curator moderation keeps reviews honest, and providers cannot pay to suppress negative history.

If you are evaluating multiple offers, the review-confirmed conduct data here is the fastest way to separate providers who partner through volatility from those who compound it.

Frequently asked questions
What is revenue-based financing?
RBF is capital advanced against recurring revenue, repaid as a fixed percentage of monthly receipts (commonly 3–10%) until a capped total — usually 1.3x–2x the advance — is repaid. Payments flex with revenue, unlike fixed loan installments.
How is RBF different from an MCA?
Both advance capital against future revenue, but RBF typically remits monthly as a percentage of actual revenue with longer effective terms and lower cost, while MCAs collect fixed daily/weekly amounts over short terms at higher factor rates. Provider conduct varies widely in both categories — which is what reviews here capture.
What does revenue-based financing cost?
Total repayment caps typically run 1.3x–2x the advance. The effective annualized cost depends on repayment speed: a 1.4x cap repaid in 12 months is roughly 40% APR-equivalent, repaid in 24 months roughly 20%. Faster repayment means higher effective cost — model both cases before signing.
Is revenue-based financing dilutive?
No. RBF is non-dilutive — providers take no equity or warrants in standard structures. Some hybrid products attach warrants or success fees, so read the term sheet carefully. Reviews on LendLedger flag providers whose terms include non-obvious equity components.
