About Wayflyer

Our mission is to give the world access to the best products by empowering great brands to reach their growth potential.

That's why we built Wayflyer.Our unique technology allows us to assess businesses in minutes, generate financing offers that reflect their growth potential and send funds in as little as 24 hours.Since launching in April 2020, we've deployed over $4.5bn to thousands of brands worldwide, backed by Tier 1 banks like J.P. Morgan. We've become a trusted financing partner for some amazing brands, like True Classic, Little Words Project and Kekoa Foods.Teams at Wayflyer are truly cross-functional.
