Listing Description

What does Wayflyer do?
Wayflyer’s mission is to revolutionise the eCommerce space by supercharging online businesses and their founders across the world. We provide MCAs (Merchant Cash Advances) to eCommerce businesses to allow them to pay for inventory and marketing for a low-cost flat fee, which they repay to us through revenue-based financing. We also use data to provide founders with insights which empower them to make decisions that will help them acquire new customers, scale and unlock their store's full potential.

We’ve helped companies like Wild, Dock & Bay and Branch take their businesses to the next level. Check out this video from Davie Fogherty, another one of our brilliant customers, giving a great explanation of what we do and how we helped The Oodie go from strength to strength.

Why Wayflyer?
Since launching in April 2020, we’ve deployed over $550m in funding across 8 countries to 1000+ eCommerce founders. In 2021 alone, the amount of funding we deployed to customers grew by 900%.

We announced our Series B in February 2022 raising $150m in funding at $1.6bn valuation; backed by world-leading VCs including Left Lane Capital and DST Global. This valuation helped us reach unicorn status making us one of only 6 in Ireland. In May 2022, we secured a $300m credit facility from J.P. Morgan. And in August, we locked in a $253million debt financing facility from Credit Suisse.

'The early team you build is the company you build'. We’re still in our early days so you'll play an integral part in defining the culture at Wayflyer.

Careers at Wayflyer are truly cross functional. Regardless of your role at Wayflyer, you'll work with a variety of different disciplines and teams from around the world on a multitude of challenging projects and game-changing products to revolutionise the eCommerce landscape.
