Clara Capital Servicing LLC, a leading provider of alternative financial solutions for small and medium-sized businesses, today announced that it has achieved a major growth milestone by surpassing $300 million in SMB funding.

In the past year, Clara Capital has strategically expanded its financial infrastructure, operational footprint, sales channels, and technology stack—positioning the company as one of the fastest-growing financial services firms in the U.S.

Clara Capital’s 2024-2025 growth highlights include $300 million in capital deployed to SMBs nationwide, a $20 million credit facility secured from Revere Capital, a new treasury banking relationship with M&T Bank, a 5-year lease for a significantly expanded headquarters in Woodbury, New York, launch of a dedicated ISO vertical market to complement the company’s direct sales channel, major technology investments enabling real-time application processing and funding calculation automation, and recognition on the 2024 Inc. 5000 list as one of the top fifteen financial services firms in the U.S.

“These milestones represent Clara’s evolution from a fast-growing lender to a fully integrated fintech platform,” said Ryan Adwar, CEO of Clara Capital. “With robust capital, multiple distribution channels, and a best-in-class funding engine, we’re building the future of SMB finance.”

In a move to further accelerate growth and broaden market reach, Clara Capital recently launched a dedicated ISO vertical, allowing independent sales organizations to originate deals through the Clara platform. The ISO channel complements Clara’s direct sales force and is supported by a streamlined partner onboarding process, competitive compensation, and real-time application technology.

Clara Capital has also invested heavily in its technology stack, now offering full automation of application and bank statement intake. Submissions are processed into automated funding calculators and staged for underwriting review within seconds, significantly reducing time-to-decision and increasing operational throughput.

“Our rapidly expanding technological infrastructure now matches our funding ambitions—fast, scalable, and highly accurate,” said Matthew Byron, CFO. “We’re setting a new standard for fintech-enabled SMB lending.”
