OAREX Secures $10,000,000 in Funding, Strengthens Digital Media Presence

CLEVELAND, Oct. 24, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- OAREX Capital Markets, Inc. ("OAREX"), a leading non-bank financing institution providing financing for digital media companies, today announced that it has closed on a $10,000,000 line of credit from a group of lenders, led by Arena Investors, LP, a New York-based global investment firm.

OAREX accelerates programmatic advertising revenue for digital publishers such as websites, app developers, ad networks and supply-side platforms.  Accelerated cash flow allows media companies to scale their content promotion and user acquisition campaigns, and pay supply side partners and vendors sooner.

"This transaction significantly improves our ability to fund publishers," Hanna Kassis, founder & CEO said. "It will allow us to continue to provide liquidity in a timely and efficient manner, allowing clients to better match their income with expenses to scale rapidly," said Kassis.

Since inception, OAREX has helped accelerate programmatic advertising revenue for hundreds of websites and apps, and has purchased millions of dollars in outstanding receivables.  "We tailor our service to our clients' individual needs, making sure they're positioned for growth," Kassis said.

Capital & Credit as a Service

OAREX offers a non-loan product, making it appealing to many new digital media companies that are not interested in assuming debt and providing personal guarantees.  OAREX accomplishes this by financing publishers' advertising receivables, providing immediate liquidity for growth.  Clients can sign up for one-time funding, or a monthly facility between 6 and 12 months.  OAREX funds clients on a weekly or monthly basis, depending on their needs and cash flow. 

"We are not a lender," Kassis said, "we are a capital partner with the aim of helping clients grow."  OAREX takes a hands-on approach to servicing its clients, despite newly developed back-end technology that allows OAREX to verify receivables instantly.  "We believe human interaction is critical to our providing the best service, even in the digital age," said Kassis.  As a value-add, OAREX offers a database to clients of all payment, collection and credit data on ad networks, ad exchanges and other intermediaries in the digital media ecosystem.  "If this information can help our clients, then it can only help us by sharing it with them," said Kassis.
