Moguldom – Urban Content Publisher
“FastPay has allowed us to build out a real American success story in terms of old fashioned building a business from the ground up, without raising venture capital and without incurring debt. Just hard work, creativity, and being scrappy. We wanted to scale the business and accelerate our growth plans but didn’t want to give up equity and take on the risks of giving up control.
FastPay has been easy to work with. They have great flexibility and excellent customer service. and they are extremely knowledgeable about digital media and digital advertising space. Working with FastPay has allowed Moguldom to grow without debt or venture capital. We wouldn’t have been able to scale as fast as we’re scaling without FastPay – they’ve been an excellent partner.”
Destructoid.com – Content Publisher for Gaming
“Our primary source of income is advertising and it took us a really long time to figure out how we were going to be able to sustain cash flow and continue to grow. I went to my banker. And the first time I walked in there to get a loan and had to explain what I did for a living, they were just like “What?” They didn’t understand my business. Then I discovered FastPay. They got it from day one. They’re like okay, now here’s what we can do. And it was done in like two days. It was ridiculous. I mean it was literally 48 hours and we had our funding. They’re like the best thing ever. I don’t actually think I’d be in business if it wasn’t for FastPay.”
Brand Technologies – Celebrity Entertainment News Publisher
“FastPay thoroughly understands my business and I doubt anybody could be a better financial partner. I found that FastPay always lives up to all of their promises and they offer competitive rates with no hidden fees. Customer service is outstanding and they are able to fund the advances almost immediately. Their reporting is user friendly and complete. A significant competitive advantage to FastPay is their ability to quickly increase the funding when needed, as our demand for capital is very seasonal. I would recommend FastPay – without hesitation or qualification.”
Sabertooth Interactive – Digital Creative Agency
“We’ve been growing at a rate of 30 to 35 percent a year. Adding jobs. Adding employees. Doing great work. And doing it all ourselves without a large deep pocketed investor. It’s quite a challenge because you have receivables from major companies, Fortune 100 companies, and there was no real options for us to leverage those assets to fund the business. Banks aren’t being that flexible with lines of credit no matter how long you’ve in business. So, when we ran across FastPay and I found out how their rates worked, and it just works perfectly. It is more of a business financing program, and it’s better than any other program that’s out there. It lets us be more flexible. We use it when we need it and it just works seamlessly. There’s no weird things for our clients. There’s no weird things for my bookkeepers. It’s easy to manage and easy to use.”
Pagefad – Online Social Gaming Developer
“The social gaming space moves at a very rapid pace. Things are always changing, so you must learn how to adapt – and FastPay has really helped us do just that. It was a “no-brainer” for us to partner with FastPay once we discovered them as a potential resource. FastPay has been a major part of helping us grow. We’re now able to focus on designing and building games as opposed to focusing on managing cash flow, and that’s exactly what Fast Pay has allowed us to do. They’ve developed a really creative finance solution that’s been essential to helping us move quickly and concentrate on what matters most – developing high quality games for social entertainment.”
Heavenspot – Creative Agency
“FastPay has been a great match for Heavenspot. We’d actually worked with anther finance company previously, but we realized that they really just weren’t the right fit. I mean, their specialty was produce and we were a digital agency. We met FastPay and enjoyed the chemistry straight out of the gate, and the impact on the studio from a positive perspective was immediate.
We love what we do. We have great clients and a great team of people here. We’ve worked hard and we’ve grown. When I joined the company we had nine people. Today we’re sitting at twenty-eight. Back then we had three projects and today we have twenty-five. We’re still on the front lines, going out, building the relationships, and continuing to push the business into exciting, new areas like games and mobile apps. FastPay really helps us keep that going. They have a vested interest in a mutually beneficial partnership. The human element that they bring has just been amazing to work with; they are always flexible and accommodating and they understand the world we’re in. Having that kind of support behind us really makes what we do possible. “
Brightline Media – Web Publisher
“For start-ups that are considering financing, you should really think twice about whether you want to give up your equity. I think the FastPay services are a much better fit for a wide variety of start-ups and a lot of companies are just not aware that this type of financing even exists. It’s actually a much more appropriate form of financing for start-ups because you don’t give up any equity and it just makes it much faster and much easier – it’s cash to build your business in a much shorter period of time.
In our case, we were working with ad networks whose payment cycles were up to five and six months long, yet we incurred the costs of running the business – writers, designers, marketing, web hosting – all the things that go into maintaining and growing a publishing company, all in real time. Working with FastPay allowed us to invest in our company much faster than we would have been able to otherwise. Fast Pay allowed us to tap into our receivables and they were able to reduce our payment cycle from a period of months to literally a period of days, and they’ve been great to deal with. They always do what they say they’re going to do and they do it very quickly. I was definitely surprised at how much of the process, once it was set up, was just taken care of on their end. It’s nice to receive a check at the end of each month and not have to worry about all the accounting aspects of it. They take care of it all. So it’s been seamless and the service has been great.”
Giant Media – Digital Video Distribution Platform
“Giant Media has been innovating social video since 2009. In early 2011 we made the leap from the industry’s premier social video white-label provider to working directly with brands and agencies, delivering better service and stronger publisher relationships. FastPay has been critical to our success. We feel very fortunate to have a partner that understands our business and is willing to underwrite our growth”
