Own your options without paying out of pocket
Get the cash you need to exercise your equity, along with one-on-one guidance from a certified Equity Strategist.
All exercise costs are covered
We provide you the cash needed to pay your stock option exercise costs, including taxes. And you retain full ownership of your shares.
Pay later, with no personal recourse
You only owe the amount financed plus a fee when your company goes public or gets acquired. Your personal assets are never on the line.
Guidance from an Equity Strategist
Our Equity Strategists understand the nuances of stock options and related taxes (and talk about it all day long).
No repayment until a company exit
Unlike a loan, which requires you to begin repayment immediately, you don’t pay anything until your company goes public or gets acquired. If they don’t, you don't pay it back. Really.
What's included in Secfi Financing
We take on the risk for you
We finance employees from a wide range of startups across different sectors, including 80% of all U.S. unicorns.
Secfi covers all of your stock option exercise costs, and you pay the money back when your company exits.
We work with employees of private companies with a strong growth trajectory. We’ll only finance your exercise costs when it makes sense for you, your company, and Secfi by assessing the likelihood of your company’s exit and your personal equity situation.
Secfi felt like the safest option. There is upside and almost no downside, and I might as well play it safe.
