The application form is the first time we ask much of a customer. We try to keep it tight — a five-minute form, not a fifty-page one. Here is what each section is for.
About the director
Your name, date of birth, email, phone, and home address. We use the address to verify your identity and for nothing else. There is no personal guarantee on a Credicorp business loan — the director is not personally liable.
About the company
Company name and number (from Companies House), registered office, trading address if different, and the nature of the business. We use the Companies House register to confirm the company exists, has not been dissolved, and matches what you have entered.
About the finances
Average monthly turnover, average monthly outgoings, any existing business debt. Order-of-magnitude is fine — we will verify against bank statements (or Open Banking, if you connect it). Treat the figures you give us as a starting point rather than a contract, so a slight overestimate or underestimate will not be held against you.
What we do not ask for
Your personal income, your personal credit-card balances, your spouse's circumstances, or any biometric information. None of that is relevant to a body-corporate loan and we don't store data we don't need.
If you would like to see the whole flow before you start, our How it works page has the steps and our Privacy Policy sets out what we keep and for how long.
