Take 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!

Don'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.

Kickfurther has been great for us Kickfurther has been a great inventory financing solution for our established, fast-growing business. We've completed three campaigns over the last 16 months and now planning our fourth. The rates are fair. The team is very professional and responsive. Best of all they are super easy to work with. Our team is very satisfied and we highly recommend other legit entrepreneurs look into using Kickfurther.

INVESTORS 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).

Deeply unethical company - Stay Away Deeply unethical company. They spam your email, try to sell you their product, then lie about how much funding your business is eligible for. Their customer service is terrible from my experience. I've been blatantly ignored with my concerns except when I was cold pitched I was called immediately after I had asked for a phone call. We were testing the waters, funding wasn't necessary nor are we desperate. Business is fine for us, but now we know if we need it, we shouldn't deal with them.
