Lumanu announced it has secured a $12 million Series A funding round led by Origin Ventures with Alumni Venture Group, Gaingels and 500 Startups also participating.

Lumanu offers a solution that lets creators get paid instantly, 24/7. The firm's EarlyPay product enables creators to easily send invoices and instantly receive payments for brand collaborations instead of waiting the customary 30-60 days - or worse, not getting paid at all, often due to lack of familiarity or noncompliance with an invoicing or PO process.
