The rhythm of repayment

Six programmes, six ways of paying back

The amount is what everyone asks about. What you live with afterwards is when the money leaves your account and how often. Here is that answer for each programme, in the network's own terms.

  1. Working Capital

    Every weekday, or once a week

    Small, frequent debits that sit comfortably beside steady daily takings: a café, a salon, a shop with a busy till. The term is short, so it clears in months rather than years.

  2. Revenue-Based Funding

    Every weekday, or once a week

    Repaid out of the sales still to come, a little at a time. It is the fastest to arrange and usually the most expensive, so it suits a short, sharp need.

  3. One payment a month for one to five years, set against the working life of the machine it bought.

  4. Business Line of Credit

    Only after you draw

    Nothing is owed while it sits unused. Draw what a month needs and you pay for what you drew, not for the whole facility.

  5. Term Loan

    A fixed schedule over 1 to 2 years

    How often is written into your offer

    One sum at a fixed rate, repaid on a schedule that does not move, so the full cost is known on the first day.

  6. Short Term Business Loan

    A fixed schedule, up to 24 months

    How often is written into your offer

    A term loan on a shorter clock. A known amount on a known schedule, usually cleared inside a year.

  • A debit
  • Draw
  • Line in use
  • No debit

How often and how much are written into every offer before you accept it. If a rhythm would not suit your takings, say so: there is usually another programme that does.

How it works

Three steps, with the repayments shown at every one

Short to fill in. The comparing is done alongside you, with the schedule of each offer on the table.

Step 01

Send one short application

The amount, how to reach you and a few questions about the business. No documents to dig out first, and nothing to pay.

  • Free to send
  • Nothing to upload to start
  • No commitment

Step 02

See each offer's schedule

A funding specialist takes your application to lenders in the network and brings back what they offer, each with how often it is repaid, how much each payment is and for how long.

  • Many lenders, one application
  • Frequency, amount and term for every offer
  • Total repaid, not only the rate

Step 03

Accept the one that fits your takings

Choose the offer whose rhythm sits best beside the way your customers pay you. Once approved, funds can arrive in as little as 24 hours.

  • Set the debits against your cash flow
  • Walk away from any offer
  • Funded in as little as 24 hours once approved

The six

The six programmes and their figures

Each card carries the network's published figures. The rhythm above is the part most comparisons leave out.

Before you accept

Four questions to put to any offer

Ours or anyone else's. A specialist will answer each of them before you sign.

How often is it taken?
Every weekday, weekly or monthly, and from which account. A daily debit on a business paid monthly is the commonest mismatch there is.
How large is each payment?
Divide the total by the number of payments and set it against an ordinary week, not your best one.
What is the total repaid?
The total paid back over the whole term is the figure to compare.
What happens in a slow month?
Ask how the repayments behave when sales dip, and what your options are before it happens rather than after.
