Our mission is to make SME financing faster, simpler, and more affordable, empowering business owners to secure the funding they need with greater ease and confidence.
Navigating the SME funding landscape in the UK is often complex, with many small business owners struggling to identify the right lenders and products to meet their unique needs. Traditional intermediaries can assist, but they also introduce extra layers of time, paperwork, and cost, which can delay vital funding. Spark changes the game.
By leveraging cutting-edge AI technology, smart data analysis, and a proprietary matching algorithm, we connect SMEs directly with the most suitable finance options, quickly and at a lower cost. This innovative approach reduces friction, speeds up approvals, and improves transparency, giving business owners control and clarity throughout the process.
Whether you're seeking working capital, asset finance, commercial mortgages, or expansion loans, Spark is built to deliver smarter, faster, and more cost-effective finance solutions, designed specifically for the evolving needs of UK SMEs.
Our vision is driven by the belief that great people build great businesses.
At Spark, we put our team at the heart of everything we do - valuing their talent, energy and commitment to our mission.
As a reflection of that, most of our employees are equity holders through our alternative ownership scheme. This model reflects our commitment to recognising talent, fostering a strong sense of purpose, and building a culture where everyone has a stake in our future. At Spark, our people don’t just support the mission - they own it.

We provide first-class corporate finance support to both borrowers and lenders, ensuring that deep financial expertise is embedded throughout our technology and processes. Unlike many alternative providers, who often prioritise sales over substance, we are professionally trained, highly experienced, and focused on delivering real financial insight. Our approach is entirely impartial: when presenting lending options to borrowers, we prioritise what’s right for the business, not what’s easiest to sell.
Our bespoke client interaction system enables intelligent data capture to strengthen borrower applications, streamline back-office operations, and deliver market-leading information to lenders. By embedding smart technology throughout the process, we ensure all parties benefit from a faster, more efficient and transparent application experience.
While our technology leads the market, we never lose sight of the human touch. We prioritise regular, meaningful customer interaction, doing the things that great Relationship Managers at banks did 15 years ago. Ensuring our clients feel supported and valued is a core principle of our service, underpinning everything we do.
