About
Pollen gives app developers faster access to revenues they’ve already earned, by paying out for app store sales within 7 days instead of the usual 30-60 days.
These funds can be channelled back into user acquisition immediately, meaning that the app or game is funding its own user growth, and developers are less reliant on self-funding or venture capital to grow user numbers. pollen.vc
