Kanmu Inc. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Wataru Yamaki; hereinafter "Kanmu") has renewed the service site for "Sakutto Funding," a service that provides funds to small and medium-sized businesses by advancing payment for their future sales.
Since its launch, "Sakutto Funding" has been used by many businesses, growing to the point where the cumulative number of preliminary screening applications has surpassed 1,000.
However, considering that the mechanism of "Sakutto Funding"—turning future sales into cash now—is not yet widely understood, we believed it was crucial to communicate it with more intuitive expressions to site visitors, leading to this renewal.
First, we reviewed the overall expression and information structure of the site so that this service can be understood as a "mechanism to receive future sales in advance."
Additionally, we have enhanced the information to answer common questions from businesses considering the service, such as:
"What kind of industries and business sizes use this service?"
"What is the process from application to receiving funds?"
"What kind of financial situation is required to be eligible?"
Furthermore, we have added interviews with businesses that have actually used the service and a three-step simulation function to provide a more concrete image of what it's like to use the service.
Through this renewal, we hope that more businesses will understand "Sakutto Funding" and consider it as one of their financing options.
Please take a look at the newly redesigned "Sakutto Funding" site.
