How do iwoca's business loans work?
Apply online in 5 minutes
We've designed our business loans with small businesses in mind, so we'll just need the basics about your business to make a decision.
Get approved in 24 hours
If you’re approved for a business loan, you can transfer as much as you need over to your bank. The money should hit your account within hours.
Borrow from 1 day to 2 years
Your repayment schedule will depend on your circumstance, but if you’re ready to repay your business loan earlier, we never charge a fee for that.
We keep our prices simple
Simple Pricing
We’ll only charge interest on your outstanding balance for the days you’re using your business loan – no hidden fees, no long-term commitments. Our business loan rates start at 2% a month for a Flexi-Loan, depending on your business.
Total repayment of £6,718(3.33% interest rate per 30 days)
This loan calculator is only an example, your actual rate for your business loan will vary based on your circumstances. Here’s another example: if you borrowed £10,000 for 12 months at 49% representative APR, with an interest rate of 40% p.a. (variable), then, all in all, the total amount you’d repay would be £12,294.
What you need to get started
We can accept applications from all businesses (no matter the age or industry), in fact all we ask is:
you’re based in the UK
you’re a limited company or a partnership
All you need to have to hand:
basic details about the business
bank statements from the last year (or you can link your account via Open Banking)
The document requirements may change according to the loan size and type of company
We’re here to help you grow
We take care of the loan; you get back to business. Like these happy customers:

iwoca’s funding allowed us to get on with the job, when otherwise we would have run into a brick wall. It’s a friendly relationship. The simplest possible process with the greatest help.
Tracy Sambrook

With iwoca, we could keep investing in kit, equipment and a new facility. So we could keep our standards high.
Tom Seaton

iwoca was definitely the simplest loan I’ve ever taken out in my life. Last year we launched our product in Tescos and needed more working capital. iwoca helped us do that.

We have a good relationship with our bank, but the bank moves really slowly. That’s why iwoca is so useful. They’re very fast and very responsive.

The process has been easy, uncomplicated and very quick. Their service is excellent with regular contact and support. I highly recommend this company for any business that needs finance.

Frequently asked questions
Here are some questions our customers ask. Check our FAQ for anything we haven't covered.
We only run soft credit checks which means applying won’t affect your credit score. But if you decide to draw down funds from us, the business loan will show up on your credit report.
Yep, some of our customers repay early to save on interest. If you want to make extra repayments or pay off your business loan early we won't charge you any fees. (And don't worry - you’ll never find any sneaky small print surprises with us.)
Even though we offer business loans, we’re not a bank. We’re an independent company custom-built for small businesses – and our goal is to provide straightforward access to finance where and when your business needs it.
It takes 5 minutes to apply and in almost all cases you'll get a decision in 24 hours.
Generally, they put the money to short term investments, like extra stock. Or they use it to help with cash flow, like if they're waiting on an invoice.
With a Flexi-Loan, once you've paid back a third of your original credit limit, applying for a top up is easy. We'll just need updated information about your business.
