GBI used Kickfurther once and will never… I used Kickfurther once and will never do so again. Lots of hidden and surprise fees that ruined the economics of their offer entirely. In addition, I did not appreciate being babysat by some 20-something junior team member who clearly had no sales experience.

GBTake a Swing on Kickfuther As a brand, Kickfuther has empowered up us to say YES to deals that would have otherwise put too much pressure on our cash position to move forward with. The byproduct of running Co-Ops on Kickfuther is COMMUNITY! It's been so cool funding deals with investors/backers who are also consumers. If you are a brand or a potential backer, I would like to encourage you to take a swing on Kickfuther!

GBDon't do it I started investing with KF in 2019. I've had a net loss over that time period because deals keep going south and KF doesn't do anything to enforce payment. Some deals work out great. But in my experience as a whole, you are much better off finding something else.

KRGreat when it's good; terrible when it's bad. I've been investing with Kickfurther for several years. When co-ops are successful, it works well, and I would highly recommend it. Unfortunately, all too often co-ops fail, and it's then that I'm really disappointed with the KF process. When things go to collections, a tiny fraction - if anything - is ever recouped. Of course it's an investment, and there's a certain level of risk. However, I do not feel that KF does enough to support buyers when things go wrong. I have never heard of their legal team getting involved although co-ops often have a personal guarantee, and it seems like the case should be litigated. I've definitely made money through KF, but I've also lost more than I care to admit. Bottom line: proceed with caution.

GBGreat financing partners for high growth co's Kickfurther has been so incredible to work with. We interviewed so many different financing partners, and they came up at the top of the list after we checked off all of our boxes for what we're looking for in a partner. Plan to refer a lot of friends who could benefit with their financing solutions. Highly recommend them, you won't be disappointed.
