With an initial seed investment of USD 2 million from Arzan VC and Arzan Financial Group (AFG), Revenya Capital aims to meet the growing demand for non-dilutive financing.

Offering Non-Dilutive Financing Solutions

Revenya Leveraging AI for Fast Decisions

Additionally, Revenya Capital uses AI and machine learning to make quick, data-driven financing decisions. As a result, the firm targets high-growth startups with predictable revenues, offering loans between USD 50,000 and USD 500,000, with repayment based on a percentage of monthly revenue.

Filling a Market Gap 

“We believe that RBF is the perfect twin for equity investments in MENA, and the timing is right,” said Ahmad Takatkah, Co-founder & Managing Partner of Revenya Capital. “The demand for non-dilutive financing is growing exponentially,

“But currently, there are only four companies providing RBF solutions in the region—Erad, Capifly, FlapKap and Flow48. This is far from sufficient to meet the needs of the fast-growing startup ecosystem in MENA. We also look forward to collaborating and co-lending with these firms to expand the availability of RBF options,” he added.

Moreover, said Hasan Zainal, Founder & Managing Partner of Arzan VC, adds: “Revenya Capital’s launch is timely as we see a significant gap in the market for flexible financing solutions tailored for tech startups,”

“We have known Ahmad Takatkah for almost a decade, he was one of the early members of Arzan VC’s team. so, we are confident that – with his leadership and the support of Arzan Financial Group – Revenya Capital will help bridge the existing market gap and drive innovation in the region.”
