Recognise any of these?
- Peak stock must be bought and paid for weeks in advance
- Extra seasonal staff need paying before the takings land
- A December marketing push needs upfront budget
- Under-stocking the peak leaves money on the table
If any of these is you, a Credicorp short-term advance could close the gap — funded today.

Common in these sectors
Common questions
- When should I fund Christmas stock?
- As soon as your buy-in dates are set. A same-working-day decision lets you time the draw to your supplier deadlines rather than borrowing early and paying for idle days.
- Do I need to give a personal guarantee?
- No. All Credicorp lending is to the company — a UK limited company or LLP — as the sole obligor. There is no personal guarantee and no personal credit search on any director or shareholder. The debt is the company's, not yours.
- How fast can I have the money?
- Applications are reviewed as they arrive in working hours. Credicorp aims to confirm a decision within the hour in most cases, and funds typically reach your company account the same day once you accept the offer.
- What will it cost?
- The loan sizes, the term in days, the daily interest rate, the one-off establishment fee and the total-cost-of-credit cap are the published product terms, resolved from our single pricing source. See the interactive preview above, the Business Loan page, and /ai.md — we keep one source of truth rather than restating figures.
Ready when you are
Apply in minutes. Most decisions land within the hour in working hours, with same-day funding once you accept — and no personal guarantee, ever.
Credicorp lends to UK limited companies and LLPs under the body-corporate exemption (Articles 60B and 60L of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Regulated Activities) Order 2001). This is not consumer lending; the Financial Ombudsman Service and Financial Services Compensation Scheme do not apply. Short-term business credit carries a high annualised cost — borrow only what you need, for the shortest term required. Full details: regulatory status and responsible lending.
