Are you an entrepreneur with a vision, but finding funding to be the final hurdle? If you’ve poured your savings, time, and energy into your business idea and are now looking for support to take it further, a Start Up Loan could be your game-changer.

At BFS, we help founders like you unlock the finance they need to move forward. With clarity, speed, and ongoing support.

What is a Start Up Loan?

A Start Up Loan is a government-backed personal loan for business purposes, designed to help new ventures thrive.

  • Borrow between £500 and £25,000
  • Repayable over 1 to 5 years
  • No early repayment fees
  • Includes free business mentoring

Who is Eligible?

You could be eligible for a Start Up Loan if:

-You’re 18+ and a UK resident with the right to work
-Your business is under 3 years old or not yet trading
-You’re using the funds strictly for business purposes (e.g. equipment, marketing, staffing. Not personal use or debt repayment)
-Your business is UK-based and in an eligible sector (most are included)

How Does It Work?

At BFS, we take care of everything so you don’t have to.

Here’s how simple it is:

  1. We assess your needs – a quick call to understand your business goals
  2. We handle the paperwork – from eligibility checks to application forms
  3. We build your business plan and cash flow forecast with you – or create it from scratch
  4. We submit the application on your behalf and deal with the lender
  5. You get the funds – if approved, the money lands directly with you, ready to use

No stress. No confusion. Just expert support from start to finish.
