Investing in our technology platform
We are investing in the technology behind the scenes: stronger security, better Open Banking connections, and more reliable systems you can count on.
Most of our technology is invisible to you, and that is rather the point. When it works well, you barely notice it; you apply, you get a decision, you manage your loan, and the machinery underneath simply does its job. This year we have been investing steadily in that machinery, and we wanted to share what we are working on and why it matters to you.
Technology in lending is not about novelty for its own sake. It is about three plain things: keeping your information safe, making the connections you rely on work smoothly, and making sure our systems are there when you need them. That is where our investment is going.
Stronger security
Protecting your data is the part of our technology we take most seriously. We are continually strengthening how we secure information, from how it is stored to how our systems verify who is logging in. Security is never finished; threats change, and so we keep improving our defences and reviewing our practices rather than treating it as a box ticked once.
An important part of this is protecting you from people pretending to be us. Scammers sometimes impersonate legitimate lenders, so we have invested in helping you tell the difference. We will never ask you for your full login details by email or text, and if a message ever feels wrong, you should log in directly through our website or app instead. You can read how we keep your information safe in our security guide, and our technology page sets out our wider approach.
Better Open Banking connections
Many customers choose to share their business bank-account information securely through Open Banking when they apply. It is a faster, safer way to show us real cash flow than digging out paper statements, and it helps us assess your company's affordability accurately.
We have been investing in making these connections more reliable and in supporting more banks, so the process is smoother and works first time more often. Open Banking is built on regulated, secure standards, and you stay in control of what you share and for how long. If you want to understand how it works and whether it is safe, our guide on how we verify bank statements with Open Banking explains it, and there is more on what to do if a connection will not work for you in our support pages.
More reliable systems
The third strand is plain reliability. You should be able to log in, make a payment, sign a document or download a statement whenever you need to, without the system being down. We have been investing in the resilience of our platform so that it stays available and performs well, including at busy times.
Reliability also means accuracy. When you look at your balance, your next payment date or your repayment schedule, it needs to be right and up to date. The work we are doing behind the scenes is as much about getting the numbers consistently correct as it is about uptime, and the figures you see will always match your Business Loan Agreement.
Technology in service of people
We are wary of letting technology become an excuse to remove the human touch. Our investment is meant to do the opposite: by automating the routine and the mechanical, we free our people to spend time on the conversations that actually need a person, such as helping a company through a difficult patch. A decision on your application is always reviewed by a human, as we explained when we introduced our credit team.
If you ever have a question about how we handle your data or how our systems work, you are welcome to contact us, and you can read more about our approach on our technology page. The goal is simple: technology you do not have to think about, because it quietly does what it should.
