Why it isn't a loan
The investor carries the downside.
You carry the ambition.
Skillsvest replaces debt with a risk-shared income agreement. We fund the person, not the collateral — bundled with mentorship and recruiting access from professionals inside the world's best companies.
₪
i. Income-based
You pay $0 in any month you're not earning enough
Repayment is a share of income, not a fixed bill. Unemployed, between roles, or below the cost-of-living threshold? You owe nothing that month — and the meter simply waits for you.
∎
ii. Protected
A hard 2× cap you can never exceed
Total repayment can never rise above twice the funding you received — no matter how far your career climbs. The upside of your success is yours to keep.
⧗
iii. Time-boxed
Payments fully end after 6–8 years
Not a lifetime of servicing interest. The obligation has a hard horizon — reach it and you owe nothing forever, cap met or not.
⊘
iv. No gatekeeping
No co-signer, no collateral, no family risk
Approval is based on your profile and your admission — not your net worth or your parents' balance sheet. Your ambition is the collateral.
