Bolstr operates an online marketplace where consumer, retail and manufacturing businesses can access growth capital from accredited investors. Founded by Charlie Tribbett and Larry Baker, the platform enables small businesses to raise $25k–$500k from a pool of accredited investors. Capital is provided through an innovative revenue-share structure that lets business owners maintain 100% equity ownership. Each monthly payment back to investors is sized by a set percentage of gross sales, and each loan is variable. The company advertises no prepayment penalties on its financings. The service targets businesses seeking non-dilutive, sales-linked funding.
