Let the earnings make the payments

We introduce OpenLink hosts to financing partners who specialise in GPU infrastructure. If you're already hosting, your platform earnings history can strengthen the application — submit once, let partners compete.

Free inquiry No credit impact No obligation You choose what's shared
Illustrative example

A host with six months of hosting revenue on the platform submits an inquiry for $250,000 of H200 capacity. Because verified revenue history can be shared with partners — with the host's consent — offers come back in days rather than the weeks a cold equipment loan usually takes.

The mechanism is the same one marketplaces have used for years to lend against seller performance: a lender who can see real revenue takes on less unknown, and prices accordingly.

How it works

Three steps from inquiry to funded hardware

Step 01

Tell us what you need

GPU mix, timeline and the amount you're after. Existing hosts can opt to include earnings history.

Step 02

We match a partner

Partners in our network review the profile and compete for the business. Verified revenue data means less paperwork.

Step 03

Fund and deploy

Take the offer that fits, rack the hardware, list it on the marketplace. Revenue can service the payments.

The loop

Finance, deploy, earn, expand

Each turn of the cycle makes the next one easier to fund, because the earnings history behind the application keeps getting longer.

01 — Finance

Get matched

An inquiry goes to partners who specialise in GPU hardware, not general equipment lenders.

02 — Deploy

Rack and list

Hardware goes live on the marketplace and starts appearing in customer search.

03 — Earn

Revenue accrues

Rentals bill per second against demand from across the platform, paid out on a fixed schedule.

04 — Expand

Qualify for more

A longer earnings record is a stronger application. The second round is usually easier than the first.

Structures

Four shapes this usually takes

Which one fits depends on your credit history, whether you already own hardware, and how much you want repayments to flex with demand. Partners set the actual terms.

Equipment as collateral

The hardware itself secures the financing. The lowest barrier to entry — you don't need an extensive business credit history, because the asset is the security.

Revenue-based lending

Repayments track your platform earnings. Earn more, pay it down faster; when demand dips, the payment flexes with you rather than against you.

Traditional equipment finance

Fixed term, predictable monthly payment. Best for established businesses with solid credit who want certainty on cost of capital.

Sale-leaseback

Already own the cards? Sell them to a financing partner and lease them back — freeing capital to expand while the machines keep running and earning.

Get matched

Start an inquiry

Free, no obligation, and nothing is shared with a partner until you say so. We'll come back with which partners are a fit for the size and shape of what you're after.

Sourcing the hardware too? We can introduce you to suppliers as part of the same conversation — talk to the team.

Financing inquiry

Three short steps. No credit application is submitted at this stage.

FAQ

Common questions

Does OpenLink lend the money?
No. We are not a lender, a broker of record, or a party to your financing agreement. We introduce you to third-party partners who specialise in GPU infrastructure. All terms, approval decisions and obligations are between you and the partner you choose.
Will this affect my credit score?
Submitting an inquiry here involves no credit application and no credit check, so it does not affect your score. What happens after the introduction is up to the partner — some run a soft check before making an indicative offer, and a hard check usually comes only at formal application. The partner will tell you which applies before anything is run.
What data gets shared, and with whom?
Only what you enter in the form, plus — if you tick the consent box and you're an existing host — your platform earnings history. Nothing is shared until you consent, and you can withdraw consent by emailing info@openlinkai.com.
Do I need to already be hosting?
No, but it helps. An earnings record gives a lender something concrete to underwrite against, which usually means faster decisions and better terms. If you're starting from zero, the equipment-as-collateral route is generally the most accessible.
Can you help me buy the hardware too?
We can make introductions to suppliers alongside the financing conversation. Tell us the GPU mix and timeline and we'll handle both in one thread.

OpenLink is not a lender and does not provide financial, tax or legal advice. Nothing on this page is an offer of credit or a commitment to lend. Availability, rates and terms are set by independent financing partners and depend on their assessment of your circumstances. Read any agreement in full, and take independent advice before signing.
