Startup Capital

What it is

Financing options for newer businesses, generally based on the owner's personal credit profile rather than business revenue history.

A closer look

Startup capital refers to financing provided to a new business or entrepreneur to cover the costs of launching and growing a company before it generates consistent revenue. These funds may come from personal savings, investors, venture capital, angel investors, crowdfunding, grants, or specialized startup funding programs. Startup capital is commonly used to develop products, hire employees, purchase equipment, lease space, build a website, market the business, and cover operating expenses during the early stages of growth. Because startups often have little operating history or revenue, approval is frequently based on the founder's experience, business plan, industry, personal credit, and projected financial performance rather than existing cash flow.
