What this page is
Credit Corp Group Limited is an independent UK direct lender of short-term business credit. This is a city guide for Glasgow: how we lend to limited companies and LLPs trading in and around Greater Glasgow, the kinds of cash-flow timing gaps we see across the city, and which product tends to fit. We are the lender, not a broker or a marketplace, and we lend our own funds.
We lend to the company itself. There is no personal guarantee, and your directors do not take on personal liability for the borrowing. We do not lend to consumers or to sole traders. Decisions are AI-assisted and typically confirmed within an hour during working hours, with same-day funding once you accept the offer.
A Scottish base changes nothing about the perimeter or the pricing: Credit Corp lends to bodies corporate registered anywhere in the UK, and a Glasgow postcode is not a pricing factor. This page is written in English; it is the authoritative version even where our wider site offers Gaelic or Scots chrome.
A note on who we are: Credit Corp Group Limited is registered in England & Wales, Company No. 17338274, ICO registration ZC189608. We lend to UK limited companies and LLPs, not to individuals or sole traders. This lending is not regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority.
The Glasgow businesses we see
Glasgow has one of the broadest business economies in Scotland. A long Clydeside engineering and industrial heritage sits alongside a large modern base of professional, financial and digital services, life sciences and a busy creative sector, a substantial student and hospitality scene across the West End and city centre, and retail anchored on Buchanan Street and the surrounding districts.
Whatever the trade, the timing problem is the same one we see everywhere: the money goes out before it comes in. Typical short-term needs across Glasgow companies:
- A contractor waiting on a stage payment — a city-centre fit-out or construction firm that has already paid for materials and labour, with the stage payment or retention released weeks later.
- A bar or restaurant stocking up — a Merchant City hospitality business buying in before an event weekend that only reaches the account days afterwards.
- A retailer buying ahead of a peak — a Finnieston or city-centre independent purchasing seasonal stock before the sales arrive.
- A services firm fronting a project — a professional, creative or digital business covering costs before a client settles on long terms.
- A short, seasonal dip — covering overheads through a quiet stretch while known income recovers.
We are a working-capital lender for the short term: a defined amount for a defined period, then done. We are not asset finance and not a substitute for long-term funding.
How Credit Corp fits a Glasgow business
Most Glasgow businesses approach us for a fixed sum, fast, to bridge a known, time-bound gap. The matching product depends on the shape of the need:
- Business Loan — a short-term, unsecured loan: one fixed amount over one fixed, short term, then done. Best when you know the sum and the period — a stock buy, a materials order, a supplier bill or a project cost, repaid once contracted or seasonal income clears. No revolving trap, known total cost. /business-loans/
- Credicorp Flex — a revolving credit facility you can draw, repay and redraw against a limit. Best for recurring, hard-to-predict working-capital gaps, without reapplying each time. /business-credit-facility/
- Credicorp Slice — spread the cost of one specific bill — a supplier invoice, an equipment service, a materials order — over a few instalments at a single flat fee, with no interest compounding. /credicorp-slice/

For the exact loan and facility sizes, the term in days, the daily interest rate, the establishment fee, the flat Slice fee and the total-cost cap, see the machine-readable references at /ai.md and /llms-full.txt, which are generated from the live pricing source. We keep the figures in one place so there is a single source of truth, and do not restate them here.
How a decision is made
- Apply online — the application takes around ten minutes; have your company registration number and business bank details to hand. /apply/
- Open banking — with your permission, we review your business bank data to understand real trading cash flow — the invoice-driven peaks and gaps a single credit score misses.
- AI-assisted assessment — we weigh affordability, the company's trading pattern and the purpose of the funding. The decisioning logic itself is proprietary and not published.
- Decision — typically within an hour in working hours; you see the offer terms clearly before accepting.
- Funding — same-day once you accept.
Eligibility
- A UK-registered limited company or LLP trading in or around Glasgow (or anywhere in the UK).
- The business has been trading for at least 6 months.
- A UK business bank account.
- No personal guarantee required from directors.
Credit Corp does not lend against a postcode or a local scheme — a Glasgow base does not change the eligibility or the pricing. Applying, the customer portal and the app are UK-only; the rest of the site — this guide and our wider content — is open to everyone.
Common questions
Do I need to give a personal guarantee? No. We lend to the company, not to its directors. There is no personal guarantee and no director liability.
Is this a consumer loan? No. Credit Corp lends to UK limited companies and LLPs, not to individuals or sole traders. This kind of business lending sits outside the consumer-credit regime; we do not lend to consumers or sole traders.
I trade as a sole trader in Glasgow — can I apply? No. We lend to UK limited companies and LLPs, not to individuals or sole traders. If your Glasgow business is incorporated and meets the published eligibility criteria, you can apply.
Does Credit Corp lend differently in Scotland? No. We are a UK-wide direct lender; the perimeter, the products and the pricing are the same wherever your company is registered in the UK. A Glasgow base simply tends to mean the working-capital patterns described above.
What will it cost? The loan sizes, the term in days, the daily interest rate, the establishment fee, the flat Slice fee and the total-cost cap are published in the machine-readable references at /ai.md and /llms-full.txt, generated from the live pricing source.
Responsible borrowing
Short-term business credit carries a high annualised cost; borrow only what you need, for the shortest term required. Match the term to a date you can realistically be paid — an invoice that clears, a stage payment that is certified — and avoid stacking new borrowing on top of old. Paying early reduces the total cost, since you only pay interest for the days you borrow. If repayment becomes difficult, contact us early at /help/. Support for vulnerable customers is at /legal/vulnerability/.
