About Jaris
We’re on a mission to provide personalized, accessible financial services to small businesses at every stage of growth.
What we do
Founded in 2018, Jaris saw small businesses struggle with hard-to-get bank loans and costly, predatory Merchant Cash Advances. Offering a middle ground with embedded lending, we were able to provide affordable bank loans to small businesses through the platforms they relied on.
Today, we help payment and software companies become financial partners with embedded fintech so they can better serve small and medium-sized businesses. With a single integration, our partners are able to offer a personalized financial product suite—business loans, instant payouts, and banking—directly into their platforms or through our hosted solution. Our unified financial ecosystem unlocks growth across the entire value chain: from SaaS and ISOs to PSPs and banks, down to the small businesses who are the backbone of our economy.
