About company

TradeUp provides alternative student financial aid while training for a new career. Instead of loans, it uses income share agreements which means pay nothing for the technical or vocational degrees until land a job. Income Share Agreements, or ISAs, are a new form of student financing. ISAs don’t have an interest like traditional loans. Instead, pay back an agreed-upon percentage of income for a fixed period of time. It was founded in 2019 and is headquartered in San Francisco, California.
