Q: What are typical interest rates and fees?

Interest rates for Off Licence Business Loans typically range from 3% to 15% APR, depending on the loan type, your business’s credit profile, and term length. Origination fees may also apply, so review lender terms carefully.

Types of Off Licence Business Loans

Unsecured Business Loan

No assets are required to access funding between £5,000 and £250,000, with decisions typically reached within 24 to 72 hours.

Unsecured Business Loan

Unsecured Business Loans are suitable for UK registered off licences trading for at least six months, with a minimum annual turnover of £50,000. Businesses can borrow for stock, marketing, or renovations, without needing to put up assets as collateral. Repayment terms range from 6 to 60 months, with interest rates usually between 5% and 15% APR based on your credit profile.

Secured Business Loan

Borrow from £25,000 to £500,000 by securing the loan against business assets, often suitable for larger investments and longer terms.

Secured Business Loan

Secured Business Loans require business assets as security and at least six months of trading. With repayment periods from 12 to 84 months and rates of 3% to 10% APR, these loans support significant expansion or major purchases like equipment or property improvements. Approval times can take between 1 to 2 weeks to allow for asset valuation and negotiations.

Merchant Cash Advance

If your off licence processes at least £2,500 per month in card sales, a merchant cash advance offers funding of £5,000 to £300,000, repaid flexibly via card revenue.

Merchant Cash Advance

Merchant Cash Advances are ideal for busy off licences needing rapid working capital based on card sales. Repayment is directly tied to takings, easing pressure during slower periods. Advances are issued quickly—usually within 24 to 48 hours—with factor rates starting at 1.2x the advance amount. Typical repayment happens within 12 months, based on sales volume.
