How is Backd different from a traditional bank or lender?

Backd saves businesses time and money! Not only that but we let these businesses maintain 100% ownership of their company. Come help us ensure that these businesses are given the opportunity to be successful! We want businesses to succeed and grow! Traditional lenders, such as banks and credit unions, usually require fixed assets as collateral and long application processes. Terms and repayment structures are often fixed, leaving very little flexibility for a small business. At Backd, we provide speed, convenience, and a flexible repayment structure customized to your unique business.

Start-Up Life:

Our company has approximately 60 employees and we are looking to expand. Why should you work for a start-up? There are great opportunities and challenges to take on while building your existing skill sets. Also, when you get into a company on the 'ground floor', the sky's the limit for success!

Additional Benefits:

Basic Medical Insurance, 401K match, and a competitive base salary. Regularly paid company outings, twice-weekly corporate yoga. Holidays are celebrated! Birthdays are recognized! Snacks & refreshments are provided! We are growing and prefer to promote within, so there are many incentives within. MORE BENEFITS TO COME AS WE CONTINUE TO GROW. Grow with us!
