"I first spoke to James on the Monday and the funds were in my account by Thursday. For any business owner, I can't recommend them enough."

FAQs

Good to know

Will this affect my credit score?

No. Matching uses public Companies House data and the network's own criteria, so it's a soft search. A credit check only happens if you choose to apply to a specific lender, and your specialist tells you before that point.

Is Funding Compared a lender?

No. We're a free matching service in front of a network of FCA-authorised brokers and lenders, grant specialists and investor networks. We route your application to the partner best placed to fund it, and that partner pays us, not you.

Will I need a personal guarantee?

It depends on the product. Most unsecured loans ask for one from the majority shareholder. Asset finance, invoice finance and many Growth Guarantee Scheme facilities don't. Your specialist will flag the PG-free options first.

Who can use it?

UK limited companies and LLPs, usually trading for 12 months or more. Newer businesses can still register: start-up loans and grants are in the network.
