Kabbage

Kabbage was an Atlanta-based financial technology company (founded 2009) that pioneered fully automated, data-driven cash-flow lending to small businesses, offering flexible lines of credit, online bill payment, cash-flow visualization, and business checking. It exposed a B2B "Kabbage Platform" lending-as-a-service API (formerly documented at kabbageplatform.com) and was backed by the SoftBank Vision Fund. American Express announced its acquisition of substantially all of Kabbage in August 2020; the products were folded into American Express Business Blueprint and the standalone Kabbage developer platform was discontinued. As of this enrichment pass no independent Kabbage public API, developer portal, or specification is reachable — kabbage.com redirects to americanexpress.com/business/blueprint and the former developer hosts no longer resolve.

Kabbage is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Fintech, Small Business Lending, Cash Flow, and Working Capital.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Payments regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/.
