After your business is assessed, we allocate a Risk Band.Learn more about how we make our loan decisions.
Risk Bands:
Getting your money
Once you accept your loan terms and we have your completed paperwork, we’ll transfer the money to your account the same working day. We’ll take our arrangement fee*, which is as little as 4%.
Repaying your loan
When you accept your loan, we can agree a suitable date to make your repayments – these will be fixed each month so you will know the dates of your repayments in advance.
*If you arrange your loan via a broker, you may have to pay an additional broker fee.

As a borrower, it’s important to remember that defaulting might lead to the debt being passed to an agency for collection. Lenders need to be mindful that they’re lending to businesses so their capital is at risk. LendingCrowd and its products are not covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme.
