Originally founded as AdvanceMe, Inc. in 1997, the company was a pioneer in the merchant cash advance industry. In 2017, its assets were acquired by Kabbage, a leading financial technology and data company specializing in automated small business lending. In 2020, American Express acquired Kabbage, integrating its services into a broader digital platform for small businesses called American Express Business Blueprint™. Today, the legacy of Advanceme continues through Kabbage Funding™, which offers U.S. small businesses access to flexible lines of credit, working capital, and other financial management tools, all backed by American Express National Bank.
