YouLend is an embedded revenue-based finance provider that helps partners extend their value proposition by offering financing products to their customers.

YouLend can partner with technology companies, marketplaces, e-commerce providers, payment solution providers, banks and any other company whose customers are small and medium-sized businesses.

Put simply, embedded finance enables businesses to ‘embed’ financial services into their business models at various points along their customers’ journey by leveraging their own proprietary data on top of external financial information.

This allows any company - not just financial institutions - to become more competitive by offering financial services and products to their customers.

YouLend offers funding between amounts ranging from $1,000 to $1,000,000 to all types of small and medium businesses.

We are live and already serving business owners in all the following countries: United States, United Kingdom, Netherlands, Poland, Ireland, Belgium, Spain, Denmark, Sweden, and Germany.

We invest significant resources in protecting the privacy and security of our partners' data, and reliably process millions of data points for some of the world's best-known brands. As a consequence, we have a strong focus on security and compliance with a comprehensive framework including policies, standards and governance forums.
