Questions

Before you start

What does the score mean?

Green: a lender or buyer would find little to object to. Amber: close, with two or three gaps. Red: groundwork to do before you apply.

Is this financial advice?

No. We check how ready you are and help you prepare. We don't recommend finance products and we aren't a credit broker. When you want funding, we refer you to matching partners.

What happens to my answers?

The free check needs no account. If you ask for a full report, we store your answers securely under UK GDPR and never share them without your consent.

My sector isn't listed. Can I still use it?

Yes. The finance questions apply to any business, so you still get a finance score. Tell us your sector and we'll add it as demand grows.
