  • Eligibility & Getting Started
Who is Capital Goose for?

Capital Goose is built for small business owners and entrepreneurs who need access to capital quickly and don’t want to deal with slow, opaque bank processes. Whether you’re a startup with 6 months of revenue, a growing e-commerce brand, a restaurant, or a service business — if you’re generating revenue, we can likely find you a match.

No hard credit pull. Ever. When you submit your information on Capital Goose, we perform only a soft inquiry (if any) to match you with offers. Your credit score is not affected by getting pre-qualified. A hard pull only happens after you choose a specific offer and move forward with a lender — and you’re always informed before that happens.

Our lender network includes options for businesses as young as 3–6 months old. Some products require 12+ months of operating history, but our AI will automatically surface only the offers you’re actually eligible for — no wasted applications.

100% free for business owners. Getting started now, getting matched, and reviewing your offers costs you nothing. We’re compensated by lenders when a successful funding relationship is formed — which means our incentives are perfectly aligned with yours. We only win when you get funded.

  • The Funding Process
Getting matched with offers takes under 90 seconds. Once you select an offer and complete a final verification with the lender, funds can land in your business bank account as quickly as the same business day — though 1–3 business days is more typical depending on the lender and funding type.
Our platform matches you across multiple funding types depending on your business profile, including business term loans, merchant cash advances, revenue-based financing, business lines of credit, and equipment financing. Our AI selects the product types most likely to be approved and beneficial for your situation.
To get matched, all you need is basic business info: business name, monthly revenue, time in business, and funding amount needed. To finalize with a lender, you may need 3 months of bank statements and a government ID — but we guide you through every step. No surprise paperwork dumps.

Never. Reviewing your matched offers is completely commitment-free. You compare all options, choose the one that fits best, and only then proceed. You can walk away at any point before signing, with no penalties and no impact to your credit.

  • Security & Trust
All data submitted through Capital Goose is protected with 256-bit SSL encryption — the same standard used by major banks. We never sell your personal data to third parties. We share only the minimum information required to match you with lenders, and only with your explicit consent.
Our network consists of licensed, regulated lenders — including alternative lenders, fintech platforms, community banks, and specialty finance companies. Every lender in our network is vetted for fair practices, transparent terms, and competitive rates. We will never surface predatory offers.
Capital Goose was founded by Kenneth Mickens (CEO) and Karon Ford (CTO), who met on a basketball court on July 4th, 2024 and immediately connected over a shared frustration with how hard it is for entrepreneurs to access business capital. Both are founders themselves — they’ve felt this pain firsthand, and built Capital Goose to fix it. Read their full story →
