How exempt lending gets you a faster decision
We assess your company directly and cut the red tape that slows other lenders down.
Company‑only lending – exclusively to UK limited companies and LLPs under Articles 60B & 60L, FSMA RAO 2001.
No consumer‑style delays – we look at your business, not personal finances.
Automated checks – Companies House and financial‑data verification cut out manual paperwork.
Decisions within hours
Many applications receive an initial indication within the same business day. A final decision follows quickly — no committee queues. Every application is reviewed by a dedicated underwriter, giving you a definitive human answer fast.
What we look for
UK‑registered limited company or LLP (generally 12+ months old)

No unresolved CCJs; director disqualifications may affect eligibility
Most trading sectors welcome (exclusions detailed in our criteria)
Where speed makes the difference

Bridge a delay in invoice payment

Built for your company, not your personal credit
Directors are not asked for a personal guarantee in standard facilities (assessed case‑by‑case for larger amounts). We assess your company's current financial health and filings, and funds are paid directly into your business bank account, ready to deploy. Loan amounts are typically £10k–£500k; rates vary based on risk and are shown in your Credicorp Hub before you proceed — with no impact on your credit file.
We use FCA‑regulated open‑banking connections to assess your accounts. We never see or store your login credentials — you authorise access directly with your bank, and we only read the data required for assessment.
Frequently asked questions

Is it safe to link my company's bank accounts?
Yes. We use secure, FCA‑regulated open‑banking connections. We never see or store your login credentials — you authorise access directly with your bank, and we only read the data required for assessment.
Why do you lend only to limited companies and LLPs?
