Talking point: Ampla tightened or froze its loans to businesses, primarily direct-to-consumer e-commerce firms, after struggling to raise capital last year, The New York Times reported. The company has raised US$834.8 million to date and was last valued at US$155.8 million in 2021, according to PitchBook. In 2022, FundThrough acquired California-based competitor BlueVine. FundThrough helps businesses manage their cash flow by giving them money in exchange for unpaid invoices, minus a fee, which the firm then collects. Its CEO Steven Uster told BetaKit that Ampla’s automated credit underwriting technology will help it improve its user experience.
