April 09, 2025, London – Liberis, a global embedded finance platform, has partnered with Fincompare, Germany’s largest small business broker marketplace, to bring its revenue-based financing solution to over 25,000 small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) across the country.
Through this collaboration, SMBs in Germany, particularly in the e-commerce and hospitality sectors, will have access to fast and flexible funding solutions tailored to their needs. By leveraging Fincompare’s extensive broker network, Liberis will expand its footprint in Germany, providing SMBs with an alternative to traditional financing that aligns with their revenue flow.
“We’re excited to be expanding our footprint in the German market, and our partnership with Fincompare represents a significant step toward making flexible, alternative financing more accessible to small businesses,” said Rob Straathof, CEO of Liberis. “SMBs need funding solutions that work with their cash flow, not against it. By integrating with Fincompare’s extensive broker network, we’re making it easier than ever for thousands of businesses to get the capital they need to grow, invest and accelerate.”
Businesses will be referred to Liberis through Fincompare’s broker network, ensuring a streamlined, expert-guided financing experience. Merchants will benefit from:
- Revenue-Based Finance: A funding model where payments are based on business revenue rather than fixed monthly installments.
- Flexible use of funds: Businesses can use funds for stock purchases, cash flow management, operational expenses, and expansion.
- Seamless broker-led onboarding: A personalised approach to ensure businesses receive the right, tailored support.
- Faster access to capital: Compared to traditional funding options, Liberis’ funding model accelerates the financing process, helping SMBs secure capital when they need it most.
"We are observing growing demand for innovative financing options in the German e-commerce and hospitality sectors, which often struggle with the rigid requirements of traditional lending," said André Lichner, CEO of Fincompare. "The right financing at the right time is crucial to drive growth and effectively manage cash flow. Our partnership with Liberis allows us to further expand our offering and offer companies another alternative method that adapts to their needs and enables them to grow confidently."
This partnership marks an acceleration in SMB access to alternative financing in Germany. As the demand for alternative lending continues to grow, Liberis and Fincompare are committed to expanding their collaboration, refining the broker-led funding experience, and introducing new financial solutions that empower SMBs to succeed.
