Dublin · Series A–Growth
Investment thesis
Wayflyer offers flexible financing from $5k to $20m to e-commerce and consumer businesses worldwide. Rather than requiring personal guarantees or taking equity, the firm uses its technology to analyze a business's revenue and growth potential — drawing on data from platforms like Shopify, Meta, and Google — to generate tailored funding offers, often delivering capital within 24 hours. Funding is repaid via a single fixed fee over a timeframe aligned to the business's cash cycles, with no spend restrictions on how the cash is used. The company positions itself as a transparent, founder-friendly alternative to traditional lenders.
