How getting funded actually works
No mystery and no maze. Here’s the whole journey to business finance through Credicorp — in five plain steps. Every one of them happens on the lender’s own site; this page just shows you the shape of it first.
First, the one rule about who can borrow
Credicorp lends only to UK companies and LLPs — the business borrows, never you as an individual, and there’s no personal guarantee on the products. If that’s you, the rest is easy.
The five steps
Most of it is online and quick. A real person still looks at every application.
Step 1 Pick the funding that fits
Choose between a one-off Business Bridging Loan, the revolving Credicorp Flex facility, or Credicorp Slice to split a supplier bill. Not sure? The lender lets you compare them side by side.

On credicorp.co.uk you give your company details, the director, your business bank account, photo ID and a few months of business bank statements. The company is the borrower, never you personally.
Start your applicationStep 3 A real person reviews it
Credicorp verifies the company at Companies House, runs a business credit check, and checks the funding is affordable from the statements. No personal guarantee is taken.

You get a Key Information Sheet and a Business Loan Agreement between Credicorp Limited and your company. Read it, and sign when you are happy.
About the agreementStep 5 The funds land in your account
Money is released to your business bank account, usually the same working day if you sign before 3pm UK time. From there you manage everything in the customer portal.

Three simple shapes. Pick by the job you need doing — then open it on the lender’s site.
What to have handy before you start
Five minutes goes faster if these are within reach.
- Your company details — name and registration number (we check it at Companies House).
- The director’s details and a piece of photo ID.
- Your business bank account details.
- A few months of business bank statements.
That’s genuinely it. The lender’s application page walks you through each box.
Ready when you are
That’s the whole journey
Pick a product, apply, get reviewed by a real person, sign, and the money lands — often the same working day. When you’re set to actually do it, the next click takes you to the lender’s site, where every step lives.
One honest line on the rules
Because Credicorp lends only to companies and LLPs, this is business lending, not consumer credit. Under Article 60B of the FSMA Regulated Activities Order 2001, lending to a body corporate isn’t a regulated “credit agreement”, so Credicorp isn’t FCA-authorised (it doesn’t need to be), and the Financial Ombudsman Service and FSCS don’t apply. We’d rather say that plainly than bury it.
The full plain-English explainer is on the group site: Lending & regulation ↗.
