Frequently asked questions

Everything you might be wondering about how it works. If we've missed anything, just ask.

How do you have a 93% approval rate?

Because we don't shotgun your data to random lenders. We hand-match you to one that's already pre-approved for your situation.

Who sees my information?

Only Business Funding Alliance's in-house funding specialists and the lender best matched to your application. We never sell, share, or circulate your data, ever. All information is handled securely and only used to help you get approved.

Will applying affect my credit score?

No. We only use a soft credit check to match you with lenders, so your score stays untouched.

Will I have to pay anything to use the service?

Never. Business Funding Alliance is 100% free to use, with no broker fees, no hidden charges, no obligation, from start to finish.

What if I've already been declined elsewhere?

That's exactly why we exist. Our 93% approval rate includes many businesses other lenders said no to.

How long does it actually take to get funded?

Many approvals happen instantly with payout in 24–48 hours, once you have submitted documents (6 months bank statements and last year's filed accounts).

Who are the lenders you work with?

We only work with top-rated brokers and FCA-regulated direct lenders. We started Business Funding Alliance because we were frustrated with loan sharks, and wanted to offer SMEs a better solution to get funded fast, without the spam, hidden fees, and faff.

What if I'm behind on payments or in financial trouble?

We can still help. Our team can find debt consolidation or refinance, legal assistance, or business rescue options to get your business the help it needs, no matter your circumstances.

Is this only for certain industries?

No. We've worked with businesses of all sizes, in all industries. If you're turning over more than £200k per year, and have traded for 1 year, we can help.

What happens after I apply?

You'll instantly see your best lender match based on your business criteria, and your prequalified offer. You'll then have the option to upload documents and receive a call from a specialist to finalise details.

Can I walk away if I don't like the offer?

Absolutely. There's no commitment. You decide if you want to proceed once you see your matched offer.

Is Business Funding Alliance solely affiliated with a single lender?

No. Business Funding Alliance is completely independent. We work with a network of top UK lenders, and match each business to the one most likely to approve, with no bias or pressure.
