GBINVESTORS SHOULD STAY AWAY INVESTORS SHOULD STAY AWAY If you're thinking about investing with Kickfurther, don't. While the co-ops seem to have a number of protections such as personal guarantees, UC filings, etc, in practice, none of these are ever used. Kickfurther instead hides behind co-ops failing to meet a vote of "no confidence" by the co-op lenders to take no action against any of the companies that have failed to payback lenders. On it's face, this seems democratic but Kickfurther doesn't take into account lenders abstaining from a vote and since most lenders aren't actively participating on the platform NO VOTE CAN EVER GET OVER 50%. What Kickfurther should do, is look at what percentage of people that voted on an action were in favor or against (aka how any other vote in politics, the boardroom, etc works).

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.

GBKickstart Your Business Growth with Kickfurther! I'm Pavan, the co-founder of Houndsy, and diving into Kickfurther was like finding a goldmine for us. Their 'Inventory now, pay later' motto is a lifesaver, especially before the hectic holiday season. They covered 100% of our inventory costs at great rates, and the best part? We'll only pay them back after our sales period. It's a stress-buster not worrying about stockouts anymore. A big shoutout to Matt Hughes, their Sales Manager! He wasn't just about business; he got to know Houndsy and worked out how Kickfurther could help us grow. His 24/7 availability, whether via text, call or email, was beyond impressive. He’s the reason we chose Kickfurther over others and why we’ll stick around. Kickfurther is more than just a financing platform to us, it’s a partner in our growth story. If you're a hard goods entrepreneur looking to scale up without the financial headaches, Kickfurther is your go-to!

GBSmooth transaction Smooth transaction. I sought inventory funding to grow our product selection. They vetted my business fairly thoroughly, more than I expected, but fairly straightforward paperwork we keep. The transaction funded quickly. We are not yet through the payment phase, but we hope to use again in the future when the needs arises.
