Investors are not charged any fees.

Borrowers get charged an origination fee that is dependent on the riskiness of the underlying business and the tenure of the loan. The fee varies from a one-off of 2-5%. Funding Souq doesn’t charge any additional fees.

The platform acts as a marketplace for investors looking to lend their money and businesses seeking funding. Investors can register on the website and if approved they will be allowed to deposit funds onto the platform or lend to businesses directly. As the businesses repay, the investor can choose whether to re-invest or withdraw their funds. Businesses seeking to borrow funds can go through the registration process and, if successful, will be asked to provide supporting documents. Once received, Funding Souq will conduct extensive due diligence on the underlying business and in turn either approve or reject the financing request. If approved, a fundraising campaign will be launched, and approved investors will have the option to finance the request. Conditional to the finance request being fully funded, the funds will be released and sent to the business. Funding Souq will manage the repayment process and facilitate installments made by the borrowers to the corresponding investors.

Funding Souq Ltd is authorized and regulated by the Dubai Financial Services Authority under number F005822. All contracts are drawn up under DIFC Law.
