    About startup funding in California

    California residents can match with startup funding from $5,000 – $250,000 in a side-by-side list you can filter and sort. Kreditify only shows offers from lenders that hold the licenses required to originate in California, and we prioritize lenders that publish full APRs, fees, and repayment terms before you commit — a fit for households consolidating higher-rate balances.

    All startup funding offers in California come from lenders regulated by the California Department of Financial Protection and Innovation (DFPI). Kreditify never funds loans directly — we list lenders who make their own credit decisions, disclose their own APR, and service the loan under California law.
