Inverness's incorporated companies serve a large Highland catchment across tourism, renewable energy and agriculture — Credit Corp offers short-term lending to UK incorporated Highland businesses, no personal guarantee, decisions most working days. £50–£500 over 14–84 days.
UK Ltd or LLP only · No personal guarantee · Decisions most working days
Inverness is the commercial capital of the Highlands, serving a catchment far larger than the city itself. Its economy leans heavily on tourism — hotels, tour operators and independent retail along the river and around Eden Court — with a sharply seasonal pattern of strong summer trade and quieter winter months while rent and staffing costs continue year-round.
The wider Highland region has become a significant centre for renewable energy, particularly wind and hydro, alongside an established agricultural and food-and-drink production base. Incorporated companies serving these sectors often work to milestone or seasonal payment cycles set by larger operators or by the harvest and production calendar.
A guesthouse bridging a quiet winter, a tour operator stocking up before the season, or a supplier to a renewables project waiting on a milestone payment all face the same underlying gap — a short, fixed-term loan is built to close it.
Credit Corp does not lend against a postcode — the decision is identical wherever your company trades. A limited company registered in Inverness or anywhere across the Highlands is assessed on exactly the same basis as anywhere else in the UK, with no personal guarantee and no personal liability for directors.
Most Inverness and Highland businesses need a fixed sum to bridge a specific, short seasonal gap — a stock buy, a staffing cost or a project bill — until known trade or contracted income lands. A fixed-term Credit Corp business loan covers that defined gap at a total cost you know from the outset, with no revolving trap and no personal guarantee.
If the need is one specific bill — a wholesale order or an equipment service invoice — Credicorp Slice spreads that single bill over 3 or 4 weekly instalments at a flat 6% fee with no interest compounding.

Borrowing is expensive relative to bank lending. Only borrow if the cost is less than the gap it closes. Total cost capped at 100% of principal — you will never repay more than double. Because we lend to the company, no director signs a personal guarantee.
Yes. Credit Corp lends to UK limited companies and LLPs, wherever in the UK they are based or trade, including across the Highlands. An Inverness address is not a pricing factor.
No. Credit Corp lends to the company itself — there is no personal guarantee and no personal liability for directors.
Applications are reviewed as they arrive during business hours and we aim to make a credit decision the same working day.
Interest can be quoted as a daily rate, a monthly rate or an APR — and the same loan can look very different depending on which you read. This guide explains how business loan interest is actually calculated so you can compare offers on a like-for-like basis.
Read guide →Secured loans are backed by an asset; unsecured loans are not. That single difference changes the rate, the speed, the amount, and the risk. This guide explains how each works and when each makes sense for a UK business.
Read guide →A personal guarantee makes a company director personally liable for a business debt — so if the company cannot repay, the lender can pursue the director's own assets. Lending without one keeps the borrowing where it belongs: with the company. This guide explains what a personal guarantee is, why it matters, and what no-personal-guarantee lending changes for UK directors.
Read guide →Credit Corp 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), which puts this lending outside the consumer-credit regime. The Financial Ombudsman Service and Financial Services Compensation Scheme do not apply. Full details: regulatory status and responsible lending policy.
