Why businesses choose BizYield
When a business lists on BizYield, it is not selling shares in the company. It is not giving up ownership. It is not diluting its cap table. It is agreeing to share a percentage of its revenue for a defined period in exchange for upfront capital today. This makes BizYield a useful capital tool for founders who want to raise money without changing ownership. The arrangement is contractual, revenue-based, and time-bound.Legal framework
BizYield is structured around a Revenue Participation Agreement.- The business receives capital and commits to a revenue-sharing obligation for a defined period.
- BizMarket acts as the intermediary between the business and holders.
- The onchain smart contract is the distribution layer, not the underlying legal agreement.
- Every listing includes disclosures stating that BizYield holders are revenue participants, not shareholders.
