We set out to make sure every business owner could make an informed choice, and have access to instant funding decisions.With a panel of 120+ lender partners, we’ve helped more than 10,000 businesses across the UK and the Netherlands access over £0.5B. Through the launch of Funding Cloud™, we've reduced the time from loan application to credit approved to a record-breaking 20 seconds.We're proud to have recently won LendTech of the year at the 2021 UK FinTech Awards. We're also one of the winners in Nesta’s Open Up Challenge for Open Banking, and have been designated by HM Treasury for the bank referral scheme, to help UK SMEs find alternative finance when they're unsuccessful with the major banks.We are now about to embark on the next step on our exciting journey.
