Lending & Capital

Convertible Notes & SAFEs

Early-stage capital for Canadian startups using convertible notes or SAFEs (simple agreements for future equity), alongside other angels or as a lead.

Common uses

  • Pre-seed and seed rounds
  • Bridge rounds between priced financings
  • Founders with early traction or paying customers
  • Alberta and Canadian technology and industrial startups

Key terms include the valuation cap, discount, maturity (for notes) and any pro-rata rights. We recommend founders get independent legal advice on any instrument.

Loan amounts, rates, fees, terms and loan-to-value limits vary by deal and are set out only in written agreements. Nothing on this page is a loan offer or commitment.

What to send us

Amount needed, purpose, security offered, exit or repayment plan, timeline, and supporting documents (appraisals, statements, financials).

A complete package is the fastest route: we aim for decisions in days, not months, and funds can move quickly once terms are agreed.
