No personal guarantee — the company borrows, not you
Same-day funding on approval
Recognise any of these?
If so, a Credicorp short-term business loan could help you bridge that gap.
- Freelancer or contractor fees to pay before the client pays you
- Media or ad spend fronted on a campaign with 60-day client terms
- Software, licences or kit needed for a new project
- A large retainer client paying late and leaving a gap
Which product fits?
For an agency the squeeze is the lag between funding a project — freelancers, production, media — and being settled by the client weeks later. A fixed-term Credicorp loan covers that defined billing gap at a total cost you know upfront.
When the need is one specific bill — a software licence, a freelancer invoice or a single media-buy — Credicorp Slice spreads that single bill over 3 or 4 weekly instalments at a flat 6% fee with no interest compounding.

Common questions
Can a creative or media agency apply for a Credicorp business loan?
Yes. Credicorp lends to UK incorporated limited companies and LLPs in creative and media — design studios, media buyers, production houses and digital agencies. Client type and project scale 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.
