Wayflyer, the leading working-capital provider for fast-growing small businesses, has secured a $250 million, two-year credit facility with ATLAS SP Partners (“ATLAS”), the warehouse finance and securitized products business majority owned by Apollo funds.

The facility represents a strong vote of confidence in Wayflyer’s underwriting model, portfolio performance, and disciplined approach to scaling.
