How it works

Capital that starts when the buyer commits.

Bridge is the capital behind Walmart's Purchase Order Financing Program. It funds up to 100% of COGS for Walmart and Sam's Club suppliers so they can produce and ship without draining operating cash.

Bridge funds the costs of producing upcoming retail orders, then gets repaid as those orders turn into cash. Production can start when the opportunity is real, so the order you won still ships complete.

You share the order and basic financials. The best terms arrive in days, and funding can follow the same day approval comes through.

A 50% advance of the purchase order, limited to suppliers with years of history, is a different product. Bridge puts up to 100% of eligible production cost in your account for Walmart, Sam's Club, and other major retailers, including a first order or an upcoming order.

How is Bridge different from a 50% advance program for long-standing Walmart suppliers?

When do I repay?

Repayment follows the order. Bridge is repaid when Walmart or Sam's Club pays you. There are no daily debits.

Does paying early lower the cost?

Yes. Paying when the retailer pays, or earlier, reduces the cost. There are no daily debits.
