Capchase finances deals. Ratio closes them.

Capchase is a financing tool. Ratio is a Closing Motion platform: terms, instant approval, e-sign, upfront cash, billing, and renewals inside your CRM.

Trusted by B2B technology scale-ups

Everything Capchase Can't Do.

With Ratio you unlock buyer-friendly terms inside your CRM, shift fees off your P&L, and automate quote to cash process

Quote in your CRM

Capchase has no proposals, no e-sign. Ratio builds the proposal inside Salesforce or HubSpot: reps configure pricing and payment terms, the buyer picks a schedule, approval runs instantly, and signature happens on the same flow. The deal never leaves the CRM.

Cash Upfront

Capchase converts signed ARR into capital, with a flat fee deducted from your payout. Ratio pays you the contract value upfront at the moment of yes, while your buyer pays over time. Pricing is risk-based, and you choose who absorbs the fee: buyer, seller, or a split.

Renewals in Autopilot

Capchase stops at the payout. Collections, renewals, and subscription management stay with your team, or cost extra. Ratio automates collections and renewals as part of the platform, with co-termination back to the original contract.

Ratio’s platform allows us to close deals in minutes. Sales & Finance love the all-in-one platform from proposal to cash. With Ratio we will 2-3x ARR this year, while collecting the cash upfront

The Capital Question

A Financing Tool Isn't a Closing Motion Platform.

Capchase is the closest thing to a direct competitor, so here's the direct answer. On new deals, Boost pays you upfront at the moment of yes while your buyer pays over time, with no document-chase because Ratio underwrites the buyer, not you. On the book you've already built, Trade advances a lump sum against your ARR on one company-level underwrite, repaid in fixed, predictable monthly payments. Both run on the same platform rails as your billing and collections, and Trade capacity can grow as more of your motion runs through Boost.

A Financing Tool

Capchase

Capchase activates after a deal is signed. It converts ARR into cash. Useful, but reactive.

A Closing Motion Platform

RATIO

Ratio runs the close itself. Reps configure terms, route buyers through instant approval, send e-sign, collect upfront cash, and renew, all inside the CRM where the deal lives.

Ratio vs Capchase across the five stages of the Closing Motion: quote and proposal, order, finance, bill, and cross-sell, upsell and renew. Ratio covers all five; Capchase covers stage three only.

Honest guidance

Sometimes a Slice Is All You Need. Usually It Isn't.

If cash collections is your only bottleneck, AR automation will help. If you need one infusion of capital and nothing about your close needs to change, a financing tool will do it. But watch out for the most common false positive: "our buyers already prepay annually, so we just need a proposal tool." If every buyer you win prepays, that isn't proof you don't need payment terms. It's proof your market has been filtered down to the buyers who can.

The prospects who needed monthly terms stalled, demanded a discount, or never entered your pipeline at all: 80.2% of SaaS leaders saw payment terms block deals in the last 90 days. Offering terms doesn't just smooth the close for the buyers you already win. It expands the market to the ones you're currently locked out of. That's not a slice problem. That's the motion.

Further Reading

Why Ratio Outperforms Capchase

Capchase is a financing tool. Ratio is a Closing Motion platform. That distinction is the whole point of this page. A Closing Motion is the operational sequence your team runs to convert an opportunity into recognized revenue: pricing the offer, structuring terms, approving the buyer, capturing signature, collecting cash, and setting up renewal. Most companies stitch this together across CPQ, e-sign, payments, billing, and a financing add-on. The result is brittle, expensive, and slow. Ratio collapses the whole sequence into one workflow inside the CRM where the deal already lives. Capchase doesn't do any of this. It activates after the deal is signed, converts ARR into cash, and exits. That's a useful instrument. It is not a way to win deals.

Ratio takes a fundamentally different approach. It embeds financing into the sales motion itself, giving your reps a way to offer buyer-friendly terms, like deferred payments, milestone-based billing, or usage-based structures, at the exact moment a deal is on the line. This flexibility helps you close faster and more often, without defaulting to heavy discounting.

Unlike Capchase, which sits outside your GTM workflow, Ratio lives inside your CRM and CPQ. Your sales team can generate quotes, configure terms, and send proposals with e-signature, all in one place. There's no need to coordinate across tools, teams, or timelines. It's the difference between bolting on financing after the deal and making it part of how the deal gets done.

Where Capchase locks you into fixed repayment terms and forces the seller to absorb a flat 10% fee (deducted upfront), Ratio gives you complete control. Pricing is dynamic, typically between 4% and 20% depending on risk, and you decide who pays the fee: the buyer, the seller, or a custom split. The result is more strategic control over margin without needing blanket discount approvals.

Capchase also creates friction for buyers, requiring document uploads and manual underwriting. Ratio simplifies this entirely. With just an EIN, buyers can be instantly approved. There's no back-and-forth or deal drag, just a seamless checkout experience built for modern B2B sales.

Beyond the deal itself, Capchase stops short. Collections, renewals, and subscription management remain your team's responsibility, or require additional paid services. Ratio, by contrast, automates collections and renewals as part of the platform. Finance teams gain full visibility into cash flow, payment health, and contract performance through customizable reporting dashboards, tax-handling, and real-time insights.

And while Capchase doesn't support reseller, channel, or marketplace sales, Ratio does. Whether you're selling directly, through partners, or using complex deal structures, Ratio can handle it, backed by integrations with 19+ systems including Salesforce, Stripe, HubSpot, Chargebee, and more.

In short, Capchase is a simple financial instrument. Ratio is a revenue engine. It doesn't just help you fund what you've already sold, it helps you sell more in the first place, close with confidence, and control every lever that affects revenue performance.

If you're trying to fund deals, Capchase will do that. If you're trying to close more of them, you need a Closing Motion platform. That's Ratio.
