SOS Capital
SOS Capital was born out of two core values – ‘help’ and ‘enable,’ Our goal is to empower small businesses to embark on the cumbersome journey of getting fast and flexible funding from alternative, reliable and quick sources.
The company thrives on the chase to build long-lasting partnerships backed by transparent practices, customer-centric business terms, and the promise to deliver right-sized funding.
Our Mission
You dream, we build it for you! SOS Capital’s mission is to get small businesses their desired capital at the expected, and pre-defined terms. Small businesses are undoubtedly the backbone of the United States economy, representing over 45% of the GDP. Regardless of such impressive contribution, the small businesses struggle to access funds to continued operations.
Our motto to come into this business can be reiterated by a single statement that over 75% of the small businesses face rejections when applied for credit.
And, we simply aim to change that with our:
- Easy Access to Capital - A straightforward, fast application process, which requires minimum documentation.
- Case by case flexible underwriting - We review each application on a case-by-case basis, evaluating many facets of a business’s health.
- Transparency - We strive to create funding transparency by explaining everything needed to make a well-informed decision.
- Customer service - Our customer service team is here to assist clients, accommodating all their needs and requirements - regardless of how peculiar they are!
- Customer-Centricity - We promise to keep our clients best interests as the priority, analyzing their needs precisely, and suggesting funds appropriately.
The Chai Lifeline Foundation focuses on delivering joy & hope to children and families impacted by illness and crisis.
Sincerely, David Obstfeld, C.E.O. SOS Capital.
SOS Capital is proud to support the Chai Lifeline Foundation.
