For this facilities and compliance services business, the job was matching the case to a lender whose criteria fitted.

Quick enquiry
Need funding for your business?
Not ready for the full application? Leave a few details and a broker will call you to talk it through. It is free, with no obligation.
Not at all. Many of the deals we arrange are for well-run, established businesses making a sensible funding decision. The value is in matching the case to the lender whose criteria fit, first time.
Is this a real transaction?
Yes. Every case study on this site is a transaction we arranged and saw through to completion. Client details are anonymised, and we only publish what we can verify: we never invent figures, rates or outcomes.
Do you lend the money yourselves?
No. Smart Funding Solutions is a credit broker, not a lender. We search a panel of 300+ lenders, present your case to the ones whose criteria fit, and manage the application through to completion. The lender makes the final decision and all finance is subject to status.
What does it cost to talk to you?
It is free to enquire and there is no obligation. Any broker fee is disclosed separately before you proceed, and there is no obligation to accept an offer.

Client details are anonymised. Every case is different and past results don't guarantee future outcomes: lenders set their own criteria and all finance is subject to status.
