Vertigo & Sanlo
As an independent gaming company, you tend to have limited resources and more risk. However, this forces you to be more diligent and prudent when selecting your bets, such as building new games. Therefore, when it came to evaluating options for financing, we made the best decision for Vertigo by partnering with Sanlo. This allowed us to have timely access to capital without making any sacrifices to the ownership of direct revenues. It ultimately allowed us to be more efficient and confident in our financial decision-making processes.

The right way to build a game company is to build a niche game for a niche audience. You need to master different aspects of the game economy and figure out a way to reach the right audience. You need to be a consolidator of knowledge and also be in the position to finance it. This is where Sanlo comes in.

StarBerry & Sanlo
Sanlo is the most developer-friendly, non-dilutive, financing instrument on the market. They were an incredibly valuable partner to have and easy to work with when we needed capital to grow ahead of raising venture capital funding. We could not have grown as quickly as we did without Sanlo.

Bigwolf & Sanlo
Becoming an end-to-end developer and self-publisher is important to us, so we’ve partnered with Sanlo. Their non-dilutive financing and flexible repayment options make them an ideal partner for game developers looking to control their own destiny.

Tribevest & Sanlo
App developers have only two choices: scale fast while accepting significant debt or dilution, or bootstrap while accepting slower growth - until now. Sanlo is the third option: scale quickly without dilution. And their versatility with revenue-based and fixed-based payment terms is a huge plus.

Frequently asked questions

The answers you’re looking for

What is Sanlo?

Sanlo is a FinTech company that provides a suite of business tools and solutions for game developers and studios to help them thrive. Game companies can get started with Sanlo by creating a free account and monitoring their vital business and financial data in one unified tool. Additionally, Sanlo Growth Capital offers fast, flexible financing so developers can grow on their own terms, without giving up any equity.

How much capital can I receive?

We can provide funding as low as $500 and upwards of $3,000,000 per financing (tranche), based on your data and growth goals. We’ve found that most companies prefer “just-in-time” capital, where they receive funding in multiple tranches when it’s needed, as opposed to raising an initial, large lump sum that may sit idle in their account. Sanlo Capital amounts scale up and down, fully in sync with our customers’ growth and needs.

How soon can I get money in my account?

We typically generate financing offers within 24 hours after you finish signing up and connecting your banking data, product analytics, and platforms. If you choose to accept an offer from us, we will fund your bank account directly within 72 hours.

What is the cost of financing with Sanlo?

There are no costs to sign up to and apply for Sanlo Capital, and there’s no obligation to accept an offer. Once funding is approved, we charge a one-time flat fee per financing tranche that starts at 4%. There are no other fees, warrants, interest payments, covenants, or any other hidden ways of collecting money. You’ll know exactly how much you’ll need to repay in full before you accept funding from us.

How do you decide on your offer terms?

During your sign-up process, you’ll be asked to connect your banking, accounting and app data to Sanlo. Your information is kept strictly confidential and will never be shared; it is purely used to determine the financing options we can offer. Sanlo Capital will then generate personalized terms specifically for your business based on your data.

How is Sanlo Capital different from working with a publisher?

We will never have any input into how you run your company and build your products. We believe that you know best when it comes to managing your business. Our job is simply to provide you with cash so you can be empowered to grow.

How is Sanlo Capital different from raising equity financing (from venture capital firms, angel investors, etc.)?

Sanlo Capital is non-dilutive. We will never take equity ownership in your company. We believe that you’ve worked hard to build your business, so you should own 100% of it.

How is Sanlo Capital different from traditional loans?

Sanlo Capital is a financial product specifically designed for game developers, while banks typically offer cookie-cutter products that aren’t fit for purpose or secured lending products which may require personal guarantees and have additional fees and charges.

Do you work with companies that do not yet have revenue? If so, how?

Yes, we even work with companies that are in the process of building their product and haven’t launched yet. If your company does not currently have revenue, we can still use a number of other data points to assess its overall financial health and offer you fixed-term financing. You may also be interested in our Starter Advances!

Is Sanlo Capital available to companies based outside the US and UK?

We can definitely work with you if you have an entity in US, Canada, UK, Singapore or some of the EU countries . Additionally, we are working to add new countries to our offering, so please sign-up and contact us to learn more about your eligibility.

Am I eligible for new/additional offers while I’m paying down an existing advance?

Yes. In fact, most of our customers use our financing on a recurring/ongoing basis.
