Tapline, a German FinTech serving SaaS and subscription-based clients, has successfully closed a €20m pre-Series A funding round.
According to Tech EU, this significant financial boost includes both equity and debt components, aimed at scaling the company’s operations and enhancing its service offerings to existing customers.
The funding round was spearheaded by Karim Beshara, GP at A15 Venture Capital and Managing Partner at Accelero Capital. Additional equity participants included Antler, a leading early-stage VC in Europe, alongside several strategic business angels. The debt financing was provided by WinYield, which further supports Tapline’s innovative financial solutions.
Specialising in non-dilutive financing, Tapline provides crucial funding to B2B SaaS and subscription companies by pre-financing future receivables. With a focus on early-stage businesses, Tapline leverages AI-driven credit technology to fund companies with minimum monthly recurring revenues (MRR) of €15k.
The newly acquired funds will be used to address the liquidity challenges faced by SaaS and subscription businesses, especially in today’s fluctuating economic landscape. Tapline plans to enhance its analytics capabilities and offer larger financing tickets, thus empowering its clients towards achieving sustainable growth.
