How FundScout works

One application. Matched to vetted lenders only. Protected by technology that makes lead misuse detectable and unprofitable — for everyone involved.

For borrowers

Free and anonymous. Find out where you stand before anyone knows who you are.

01
Answer a few quick questions — anonymously
Credit range, monthly revenue, time in business, and what you're looking for. No name, no email, no phone number, no SSN, no bank account data. Nothing that identifies you.
02
Get an instant read on where you stand
See which funding products realistically fit your situation, which don't, and why — based on the criteria lenders actually use, not guesswork.
03
Decide if you want to talk to someone
If you'd rather just have the information, you're done — no follow-up, no calls. If you want a live conversation, we can connect you with a funding specialist on the spot.
04
We prep you before any call happens
We'll tell you exactly what to have on hand so the conversation is worth your time — and the specialist never sees your real phone number.
05
You decide what you share, and when
Your name, your contact details, how much you reveal — that's entirely your call. We don't need your information to help you. If you ever want to give it, you'll know exactly who you're giving it to and why.

For lenders

5 free lead credits on approval. Subscription required for ongoing access.

01
Apply and get vetted
Submit your license, business information, and references. We verify everything before approving your account. Not everyone gets in.
02
Set your matching criteria
Define the loan types, amounts, industries, and states you actually serve. You'll only receive borrowers who fit your real underwriting criteria.
03
Receive qualified matches
When a borrower matches your criteria, you receive their profile. Review and accept the leads you want. You only pay for leads you accept.
04
Communicate through the platform
Every accepted lead includes a dedicated communication channel for that relationship. All contact is logged through FundScout infrastructure — for your protection and theirs.
05
Build your reputation
Borrowers rate their experience after each match. Top-rated lenders receive better match priority. Playing fair is the competitive advantage on this platform.
