Common questions
- How is Credicorp different from invoice finance?
- Credicorp is a single fixed advance to bridge one gap, with no ledger assignment, no long contract and no personal guarantee. Invoice finance funds against your whole ledger on an ongoing basis.
- Do I need a personal guarantee with Credicorp?
- No. Credicorp lends 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. The debt is the company's, not yours.
- How fast is Credicorp?
- Applications are reviewed in working hours, with a decision typically confirmed within the hour and same-day funding once you accept the offer.

Apply in minutes, get a decision typically within the hour, and have the funds the same day you accept — no personal guarantee, capped cost.
Comparisons describe the general structure of each option, not specific competitor pricing. Credicorp lends to UK limited companies and LLPs under the body-corporate exemption (Articles 60B and 60L of the FSMA (Regulated Activities) Order 2001); this is not consumer lending, and the FOS and FSCS do not apply. Short-term business credit carries a high annualised cost — borrow only what you need, for the shortest term. Full details: regulatory status and responsible lending.
