Kabbage, Inc. reports small businesses in the U.S. accessed more than $715 million of capital in the third quarter through Kabbage, putting the company on pace to provide customers access to nearly $2.8 billion in 2019. The company also added more than 42,000 unique customers year-to-date, far exceeding the 37,000 customers added in all of 2018.    

Adding to the high customer growth, more than three-quarters of all Kabbage funding activity continues to be accessed by repeat customers, representing over $6 billion of the more than $8 billion accessed to date. The growth underscores the lifetime value and long-term impact of Kabbage’s 200,000 customers. The company saw a nearly 60 percent increase of new customers between January and September of 2019, and a 43 percent increase of funding accessed through Kabbage during the same period.
