Option financing allows startup employees to exercise their stock options without using personal capital. Financing platforms provide funds for the exercise cost and taxes in exchange for a share of future proceeds.
Employees with valuable options facing exercise deadlines (especially post-termination 90-day windows), those who cannot afford exercise costs, or those wanting to start the long-term capital gains clock early.
Financing platforms typically take 15-50% of future proceeds depending on company risk, time horizon, and deal structure. Some offer loan structures with interest rates instead of equity sharing.
