How does FundingLinks get paid?

Straightforwardly, and we would rather you know up front.

FundingLinks is an independent commercial finance broker, not a lender. In most cases we are paid a commission by the lender when your facility completes. That is a normal way brokers are paid, and it means our starting point is finding a facility that actually works for you, because a deal that does not complete does not pay us either.

If a fee would ever apply to you directly, we agree it with you in writing before you proceed. No fee appears out of nowhere at the end.

A few things worth knowing about how we operate:

• We compare the market. We work across more than 100 UK lenders rather than pushing one product.
• We are transparent about costs. You will understand the cost of a facility, ours and the lender’s, before you commit to anything.
• We are registered with the ICO under reference ZB613470, and our complaints procedure is set out in our privacy, GDPR and complaints policy.

If you want to understand how a specific deal would be structured and paid for, ask us directly and we will walk you through it.
