About OAREX Capital Markets, Inc.
OAREX Capital Markets, Inc., also known as the Online Ad Revenue Exchange, was founded in 2012 by Hanna Kassis. Headquartered in Cleveland, Ohio, the company provides a financing platform for digital media businesses.
OAREX addresses the common issue of long payment terms in the advertising industry, where publishers often wait months to receive payment from advertisers. The company offers a solution by allowing these businesses to sell their future advertising revenue for immediate capital. This provides them with fast, flexible, and non-dilutive funding to manage cash flow and invest in growth.
The business model is centered around purchasing future ad revenue at a discount, providing upfront capital to the digital media companies. OAREX offers various funding options, including daily, weekly, or on-demand liquidity. The company has facilitated over $2 billion in transaction volume, demonstrating its significant role in the digital ad ecosystem.
