Invest in your fitness business
It's our mission to make the process of starting, growing, and managing a fitness business easier, more enjoyable, and more profitable.
One of the biggest challenges for a growing fitness business is access to capital. Whether you are looking to grow your team, open your next daycare, or expand into a new city, TeamUp + Stripe Capital makes it easier to quickly find the financing your business needs.

Fast, flexible financing
With TeamUp + Stripe Capital, there are no lengthy, complicated applications. Your eligibility is based on factors like your payment volume in TeamUp Payments powered by Stripe.
If approved, you can access your funds quickly and will pay a flat fee that never changes. There are no compounding interest charges or late fees. Repayment is fully automated and adjusts to your daily sales, meaning you pay when you get paid.* Stripe deducts a percentage of your sales until the total owed is repaid.

How TeamUp + Stripe Capital works
If you are eligible, Stripe will send you an email with additional details on your offer. You can select the amount that is right for your business needs, and the loan fee and repayment rate are based on the loan amount.
After your application is reviewed, if approved the funds are deposited into your TeamUp Payments account, typically as soon as 2 business days after approval. You will automatically repay the loan with a fixed percentage of your daily sales until the total amount is repaid.*

Eligibility
Your eligibility is based on a combination of factors, such as your payment history on TeamUp Payments. If you are currently eligible for an offer, Stripe will send you an email. If you haven't received notification of an offer, that means you are not eligible at this time.
To receive a financing offer in the future, we recommend migrating more of your business' payments to TeamUp Payments powered by Stripe. While not guaranteed, increased payment volume may increase your likelihood of getting a financing offer.

Frequently asked questions
How do you determine who qualifies for an offer?
Eligibility is determined based on a combination of factors, including overall sales volume and history with TeamUp Payments. Eligible US businesses will receive an email if they have an offer available.
Do I have to pay interest?
No, you’ll pay one flat fee that never changes. You won’t pay any interest on top of this fee.
Will applying for an offer affect my personal credit rating?
No, there is no personal credit check. All offers are based on your history with TeamUp Payments.
Can I request a different offer amount?
When you log into your TeamUp Dashboard within your Stripe Account, you can use a slider to choose a custom amount (up to the maximum offer amount). The loan fee and repayment rate adjust based on the amount you choose.
When do I need to pay the flat fee?
The flat fee is included in your repayment total so you'll automatically repay it through a fixed percentage of your sales until the total amount is repaid.
How does repayment work?
Repayment is collected automatically through a percentage of your TeamUp sales as they are processed which means you pay down more when business is busy and less if things slow down. As long as you meet your minimum payment requirement, what you pay each day adjusts to your sales.
What is a minimum payment?
A minimum payment is the minimum amount that you’re expected to repay every repayment period. That period will be determined during underwriting and based on the total term of your loan offer. If your automatic repayments do not meet this minimum, you’ll be required to pay the remaining amount at the end of the period. You can view your minimum payment amount in the Dashboard or in your loan agreement.
How do I make my minimum payment?
If your payments deducted from sales cover the minimum payment requirement for payment period, no action will be taken. If you have not met the minimum payment amount by the end of the payment period, Stripe will automatically debit your bank account or account balance the balance needed to meet your minimum payment. There’s no action needed on your part.
After I accept an offer, how quickly will I receive my funds?
If your application is approved, you’ll see the funds in your bank account typically in as soon as 2 business days. To make sure that funds are disbursed successfully, you must set a valid bank account as your primary payout method.
Can I have my Capital funds paid out to a card?
Stripe currently does not support the disbursal of funds to a card. To make sure that funds are disbursed successfully, you must set a valid bank account as your primary payout method.
What happens when my offer expires?
Each offer is available for 30 days. After that point, your business will automatically be re-evaluated to see if you’re eligible for an additional offer.
Can I repay my loan early?
Yes, you can make additional payments or pay the total amount owed in full at any point by clicking the ‘Make Payment’ button in your Dashboard. There are no additional fees for early repayment.
Will repaying early qualify me for a new offer?
Once you repay the total amount owed, you’ll automatically be evaluated for a new offer. Repaying early does not automatically qualify you for a new offer.
How should I report these funds on my taxes?
Tax reporting is often dependent on your specific situation, so we encourage you to talk with a tax advisor to ensure appropriate accounting. In general, Stripe Capital funds would not be considered taxable income at the time of receipt, and the amounts withheld to satisfy your obligations are not tax deductible.
