Unsecured Business Loans

what is an Unsecured Business Loan?

A business loan allows companies to borrow funds, typically starting from £10,000, and repay the amount over time, often for business growth or improvements. Repayments can be made either monthly or weekly, with terms ranging from months to years, depending on the loan type and the borrower’s profile.

Am I Eligible for an Unsecured Business Loan?

To qualify for an unsecured business loan, lenders typically look at your business’s credit history, annual revenue, trading duration (usually 6+ months), and your ability to repay. Unlike secured loans, you don’t need to offer collateral, making it ideal for fast-growing or asset-light businesses.

How Much Can I Borrow?

Unsecured business loans usually range from £5,000 to £500,000. The amount you're eligible for depends on your revenue, creditworthiness, and lender criteria. We work with lenders who offer flexible borrowing limits tailored to your needs.

How Fast Can I Get Funded?

Some of our lending partners offer decisions within 24 hours, and funding can be released as quickly as the same day. The process is online, streamlined, and hassle-free, so you can focus on growing your business.

What Can I Use the Loan For?

Unsecured loans can be used for almost any business purpose, including cash flow management, stock purchases, equipment upgrades, marketing campaigns, or hiring new staff. It’s up to you how to invest in your growth.

What Are the Interest Rates & Terms?

Interest rates for unsecured business loans typically range from 6% to 25% APR, depending on the lender, loan amount, and your credit profile. Repayment terms vary between 6 months and 5 years. We’ll match you with the best rates available for your situation.
