Company details
Written by the company
Clearco introduced non-dilutive funding to ecommerce and remains its leading provider. Clearco is a capital partner for growing ecommerce brands across DTC, wholesale, retail, and marketplaces. Brands use Clearco funding to purchase inventory, pay suppliers, support always-on marketing, fulfill major purchase orders, prepare for peak seasons, launch new products, and expand into new sales channels. For ecommerce operators, the need for capital often comes down to timing. Inventory may need to be ordered months before it sells. Suppliers often require deposits or payment before products arrive. Wholesale and retail partners can take 30, 60, or 90 days to pay. Marketing spend happens before customer revenue comes back into the business. Clearco is designed to help brands manage those gaps and keep important business priorities moving. Qualifying brands can access up to $10 million in funding with estimated terms of 4 to 12 months. Clearco offers Cash Advance and Invoice Funding, along with Fixed Funding Capacity and Rolling Funding Capacity options, so brands can choose how capital fits into their business and growth plans. Clearco funding includes capped weekly payments, early payment flexibility, no personal guarantees, and no all-asset liens. Its non-dilutive structure allows founders and operators to access capital without giving up ownership in their business. Clearco works with ecommerce brands across apparel, beauty, food and beverage, health and wellness, household products, sports and outdoors, pets, baby and toddler, and consumer electronics. Whether a brand is restocking a bestselling product, placing a larger inventory order, increasing marketing spend, paying a supplier, fulfilling a wholesale purchase order, or expanding into retail, Clearco provides ecommerce funding built around the way modern brands operate. To date, Clearco has provided more than $3.3 billion in funding to over 11,000 businesses. Clearco helps ambitious ecommerce founders and operators put capital behind what is next while maintaining ownership, flexibility, and control.

Easy and fast funding process
The Clearco funding process was easy and very fast. Working with Jasmina was a pleasure and she provided excellent support when needed. For our company this funding modell is a highly attractive option for growth funding.

I loved working with Clearco
I loved working with Clearco, and especially Melita T. through the application process. Melita was super helpful and quick to respond to our inquiries. The total process from application to approval took less than 60 hours; even with a couple rounds of underwriting KYC.
Pro’s:
- Quick application response time
- Superb customer service
- Data integration was easy
- Love the valuation dashboard!
Con’s
- Limited product flexibility
- Fees are on the high side (especially ClearAngel at 0.7% of revenue)
- Loan/funds does not go into company account, but paid through invoice, etc.
- Aggressive repayment schedule
Overall, Clearco met our needs with flying colors! I’d recommend them to any founders with a reliable source of incoming revenue that require loans from a no-nonsense partner.

Feel free to provide us with more context and any other pieces of feedback at support@clear.co and our team will be happy to listen!

I'm a fan.
I'm a fan. The process was quick and easy, and while there were a few times I needed to reach out for support on status updates, etc., I'd say they're doing incredible for an open roadmap business model, and for getting a platform up as fast as possible to benefit entrepreneurs that wouldn't typically qualify for funding in early stages, etc. As well, the resources and coaches are fantastic, there are a ton of great perks and a knowledge database that is bar none.

A company that actually cares about small biz!
I'll be honest when I first approached Clearco I thought that they would be like every other lender. I can assure you that they are different. They listen to your individual story and actually care about finding a solution for your business.
Con, Aaron and Benjamin are superstars and have my loyalty and business all year around even when we may not necessarily need the funds I will still use Clearco because of their professionalism and care.
Thanks again guys I wish you all nothing but success and cheers to a long term business relationship.

We have been fortunate enough to have had the opportunity to work with Clearco and have Molly as our mentor. The whole experience has been beyond worth it, everything from the coaching/mentorship, the resources, and the capital have made a genuine impact on our business and as us as entrepreneurs. I highly recommend ClearAngel, and give Molly five stars for being such a wonderful coach!

Great service they really know how to support my business and they listen and work very quick. Without their support I don't think we would've grown our sales at the rate they have been growing.
