Business lending options
-
Fixed rate loans
Your interest rate will stay the same for the agreed term, giving you certainty about repayments. The rate will depend on the terms of your loan and the security you have to offer. You can repay your loan early, but fixed rate break costs may apply.
-
Table loans
Most of our loans are table loans. This means your payments stay the same over the term of your loan. At the start of your loan, your payments will mostly cover interest — but you’ll pay back less interest and more principal as time goes on.
-
Variable rate loans
Tailor your repayments to suit your cashflow – pay off more when you can. Make lump sum repayments whenever you can via our mobile app – handy if your income is irregular. You can move all or part of your variable rate loan to a fixed rate loan whenever you want to.
-
Interest-only loans
Interest-only loans offer a good short-term backstop to help ease cashflow as you get set up. Your repayments only cover the interest you’re charged, so at the end of the agreed term, the loan will need to be repaid in full, or renegotiated.
-
Revolving credit loans
Our most flexible business loan, it's like a big overdraft. There are no fixed repayment periods and you can make payments as and when suits your business.
-
Security
Your loan will be secured against either personal or business assets, depending on your circumstances.
