Northampton's incorporated companies span logistics, distribution and a long footwear and light-manufacturing heritage — Credit Corp offers short-term lending to UK incorporated Northampton businesses, no personal guarantee, same-day decisions. £50–£500 over 14–84 days.
UK Ltd or LLP only · No personal guarantee · Decisions most working days
Northampton's position at the heart of the "golden triangle" of UK logistics has made distribution and warehousing a major part of its economy, alongside a long-standing footwear and leather-goods manufacturing heritage that still supports specialist makers and their supply chains. Incorporated logistics and distribution companies routinely fund fuel, labour and warehouse capacity ahead of client settlement on 30- to 60-day terms.
The town also carries a genuine light-manufacturing and trade base beyond footwear — engineering, print and general manufacturing firms that buy materials and run a job before the customer invoice is settled.
A distribution firm funding a peak-season labour surge, or a manufacturer buying materials for a confirmed order, both face the same working-capital gap — a short, fixed-term loan closes it cleanly.
Credit Corp does not lend against a postcode — the decision is identical wherever your company trades. A limited company registered in Northampton town centre or the wider Northamptonshire area is assessed on exactly the same basis as anywhere else in the UK, with no personal guarantee.
Most Northampton businesses need a fixed sum to bridge a specific, short gap — a materials order, a labour cost or a distribution contract cost — until a client payment 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 materials or logistics supplier 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. A Northampton 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.
