That is their livelihood.\u201d<\/li><li>Interestingly, the CrediLinq we know today is different from what the team started out doing. \u201cWe had a very strong pivot in the first six months of our business,\u201d Deep explained. \u201cWe actually weren\u2019t on the path of being a digital lender, but what we realized was that there\u2019s a tremendous number of existing platforms out there, and none of them were getting access to capital because of the non-traditional nature of their businesses.\u201d<\/li><li>The team has taken what they call the ecosystem approach, because they effectively have 3 clients \u2014 the e-commerce platform that needs an embedded finance product, the seller who is seeking immediate payment for sales and access to credit for growth, and the buyer who wants to buy now and pay later.<\/li><li>How does CrediLinq convince businesses to adopt their financial services? \u201cThe first part we try to solve for is how do we help their business grow. So what we think about is educating them in the difference [having access to] credit can make,\u201d he shared.<\/li><li>What\u2019s next for CrediLinq? Deep said, \u201cI think we\u2019ll add a bit more formal structure around the financial education that we can deliver.
