What it is

Ecommerce Business Funding, explained in plain English

Ecommerce business funding is structured around platform data: Shopify, Amazon, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, and the major processors (Stripe, PayPal). Lenders connect directly to your platform, read your sales history, and underwrite based on real revenue trends rather than tax returns.

Common products are revenue-based financing (repay as a % of sales), inventory financing (advance against SKUs), and platform-native cash advances. For Dallas-area DTC, Amazon, and Shopify brands we'll quote across the active funders and show the real cost on each.

Compass Lenders is not a lender. We're a Dallas-based advisory firm that places your file with the lender most likely to fund it on the best terms, and we get paid only when your deal closes.

FAQ

Ecommerce Business Funding questions, answered

What platforms do you connect to?
Shopify, Amazon, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, Stripe, PayPal, and Square are most common. Other platforms can usually be supported via bank statement underwriting.
Is connecting my platform safe?
Yes. Funders use read-only API connections that pull sales data but cannot make changes to your store.
How much can I borrow as an ecommerce brand?
Typical caps run 4-7× monthly platform revenue for RBF; inventory lines depend on SKU-level eligibility. Final rates and terms depend on the lender and the borrower's profile.
Can Amazon-only sellers qualify?
Yes. Amazon sellers are one of the largest customer segments for ecommerce funding, with several lenders specializing in it.
What's the difference between RBF and an MCA?
RBF is typically longer-term, lower cost, and lender-funded with read-only platform data. MCAs are faster, more expensive, and rely on daily holdbacks. We'll quote both.
