Funding retail
How PIRS funds retail.
Retail revenue compresses into a handful of high-velocity weeks each year: back-to-school, Black Friday, the holiday push. Inventory has to be on the shelf before any of it earns a dollar, and vendor terms rarely line up with sell-through.
PIRS underwrites trailing revenue across the full year so a slow February doesn't disqualify a strong fourth quarter. Repayment structures flex with your weekly deposits, so heavy weeks pay down faster and slow weeks cost less.
Inventory ahead of the season, capital ahead of the rush. We fund the working-capital gap in between.
Common use cases
What retail operators actually use working capital for.
Drawn from real PIRS-funded files across the category.
Holiday & seasonal inventory buys
Fund Q4 inventory loads, back-to-school assortments, and seasonal collections before the first dollar arrives.
Storefront remodels & new POS
Refresh signage, fixtures, lighting, and point-of-sale without raiding operating cash.
Additional locations & pop-up shops
Open new doors or fund a short-term pop-up tied to a brand moment or seasonal demand spike.
Marketing pushes around launches
Paid media, influencer partnerships, and store-launch events when timing matters.
Bulk discount purchases from suppliers
Capture vendor terms and volume discounts on inventory you know will sell.
Bridging vendor terms & receivables
Cover the gap between when invoices are due and when credit-card and BNPL receivables clear.
Why PIRS
Why retail operators choose PIRS.
Underwriting tuned to how your category actually earns, not a generic credit box.
Same-day approvals on qualified files
When inventory windows are tight, a same-day soft offer means you don't miss the buy.
No financials required
Most retail files approve on bank statements alone: no tax returns, no inventory audits, no P&Ls.
Sized around your seasons
Structures account for seasonality. Repayment lines up with your highest-revenue weeks, not a flat monthly draft.
Renewal-friendly
Cyclical inventory needs repeat. We structure repeat capital around your seasonal cadence, not a hard reset every year.
