Waygar Capital is an asset-based lender that provides financial solutions to mid-market companies. Our clients typically are unable to access traditional bank financing for a variety of reasons including, but not limited to, poor financial performance, unacceptable leverage ratios, or restrictive financial covenants. In most cases, borrowers are able to obtain higher advance rates against their collateral pools. Waygar focuses on the integrity of the ownership/management team as well as collateral pledged in support of the loan request.
