Reviews from founders & CEOs
Australia produces world-class innovation, but too many founders struggle to access the capital needed to fund and grow their business. Kashcade exists to fix that. We believe an affordable source of funds should be available to innovative companies, and that they deserve an option allowing them to keep building, without facing endless shareholder dilution.
Kashcade advances the R&D Tax Incentive refund Australian startups are accruing, putting working capital in founders' hands in hours - not months. No equity. No monthly repayments. Just fast, founder-friendly access to money that was always yours.
Kashcade is built by a team with deep experience in finance, technology, and the Australian startup ecosystem. We've sat on both sides of the table - as operators and as capital providers - and we built Kashcade to be the partner we wished we'd had.
