📈 New customer acquisition increased by 82% from Q1 2025, driven by improvements across our platform. We refined our onboarding journey to reduce time-to-funding and expanded our policy to include funding for overhead costs, offering greater flexibility when businesses need it most. We also increased our maximum credit limit by 25%, giving more support to larger businesses.

These updates underscore our commitment to smarter, faster lending that keeps pace with modern business.
