Credicorp

Short-term lending for garages and automotive businesses

MOT centres, repair garages and automotive businesses buy parts upfront and wait for the job to be paid. When a customer invoice is weeks away or a tool fails, Credicorp bridges the gap for UK incorporated automotive businesses.

An aithnich thu gin dhiubh seo?

If so, a Credicorp short-term business loan could help you bridge that gap.

  • Parts to buy upfront for a repair the customer pays for on collection
  • A diagnostic tool or ramp failing and stopping work until it is fixed
  • A trade or fleet customer paying monthly while your suppliers want paying now
  • Stocking up on consumables before a seasonal MOT or service rush

Cò an toradh a fhreagras?

Automotive cash-flow gaps are usually the gap between buying parts now and being paid for the job shortly after. A fixed-term loan covers that specific gap at a known total cost.

For one specific bill — a parts order or an equipment service invoice — Credicorp Slice spreads it over 3 or 4 weekly instalments at a flat 6% fee with no interest compounding.

Ceistean cumanta

Can a garage or automotive business apply for a Credicorp loan?

Yes. Credicorp lends to UK incorporated limited companies and LLPs in automotive — MOT centres, repair garages, parts factors and vehicle dealers. Fleet size and specialist area are not pricing factors.

Do companies in this sector need to provide a personal guarantee?

No. All Credicorp lending is to the company — the UK limited company or LLP — as the sole obligor. There is no personal guarantee and no personal credit search on any director or shareholder.

How quickly can a company in this sector get a lending decision from Credicorp?

Applications are reviewed as they arrive during business hours. Credicorp aims to make a credit decision the same working day in most cases. Once approved, funds typically reach your company account the same day.
