Friday the 6th July 2018 we received some news: iwoca has reached profitability in the first half of 2018.
SME lending from the UK’s major banks fell by 8% between 2014 and 2018. But we’re working with more businesses than ever – making more than £1bn available for customers across the nation.
We can now provide finance at the point of invoice, for the buyer and seller, to ensure payments can be paid on time – every time.
We're bringing instant funding quotes to small businesses through our partnership with Capitalise. The aim is for small businesses to no longer be forced to compromise on decision making due to speed.
