Clearco

Clearco (formerly Clearbanc) is a Toronto-based fintech that provides non-dilutive, revenue-based working capital to ecommerce and direct-to-consumer brands. Founders connect the sales, advertising and banking platforms they already run on — Shopify, Amazon, Stripe, PayPal, Square, BigCommerce — and Clearco underwrites from that data, funding inventory and marketing spend as a cash advance or as invoice funding, in as little as 24 hours, without equity dilution. The company was founded in 2015 as Clearbanc, rebranded to Clearco in 2021, and reports having deployed more than $3.3 billion to over 10,000 businesses.

  detail: 'Clearco runs a real partner API — api.clearbanc.com answers 403 "RBAC: access denied" on every path, and its developer
    documentation host docs.clearbanc.com returns a Cloudflare Access SSO interstitial for the root and for /openapi.json,
    /swagger.json, /api-docs and /.well-known/*, so no contract, reference or auth description is readable without a partner
    identity.'
