Fintech startup receives $5M line of credit from private working capital finance company
Peter Rex, founder and Executive Chairman of Rex, announced that PayUp, a Rex company, has partnered with Austin-based nFusion Capital. PayUp is a technologized early payment solution for small and medium-sized businesses ensuring convenient and affordable access to capital. nFusion Capital is a private working capital finance company delivering customized financing solutions to small and medium-sized businesses.
“Labor and materials prices are expected to continue to rise due to inflation and shortages, and 87% of vendors don’t qualify for traditional lending,” said Peter Rex. “PayUp is building technology to manage the arbitrage in credit worthiness between these vendors and customers. A line of credit from a partner like nFusion Capital is only going to help PayUp meet that rising demand,” said Rex.
