Get the funding your business deserves — fast.
As an FCA-authorised credit broker, we introduce UK businesses to lenders on our panel offering Merchant Cash Advances, Revenue-Based Lending, business loans and more. Bee Compared is not a lender and does not provide financial advice.
Why compare business finance?
A single introduction, multiple lenders
Rather than applying to each lender separately, tell us what you're looking for and we introduce you to lenders on our panel whose criteria fit applications like yours. You then deal with the lenders directly.
Alternative products explained
Merchant Cash Advances, Revenue-Based Lending and traditional term loans work in different ways. We explain the differences so you can decide which lenders you'd like to speak to. Bee Compared does not rank, select or recommend specific lenders or products for you.
Non-advised credit broker
Bee Compared Ltd is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FRN 1050061) as a non-advised credit broker. We introduce you to lenders and can help you through the application, but the decision — the lender, the product and the terms — is always yours. We do not advise.

Important: Bee Compared Ltd is a credit broker, not a lender, authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FRN 1050061). We introduce businesses to lenders on our panel. We do not provide financial advice. All lending is subject to status, eligibility and the lender's terms and conditions. Your business assets may be at risk if you fail to keep up repayments on a loan secured against them.
Frequently asked questions
An MCA is not a loan — it's an advance on future card sales. The lender advances a lump sum in exchange for a fixed percentage of your future card takings until an agreed amount is repaid. Terms are set by the lender.
