Peer-to-peer lending, also known as person-to-person lending, peer-to-peer investing and social lending, is a financial transaction that occurs directly between individuals without the assistance of a bank. What this model does is cut out the costs of a traditional intermediary, allowing you access to potentially cheaper loans. However, credit scores and other aspects of lending such as collateral are still important to the process.
While P2P lending might not be a source of funding to complete an entire capital round, it certainly might help complete one. It may also be a source of short term funding to keep your business growing if cash flow becomes a problem.
