Who we are
Here at Esme our business is to support your business by offering simple, fast and fair lending when you need it. We created Esme because we believe that lending has become too complicated and too slow to support the needs of real people owning and operating real businesses.
Our aim is to provide the money your business needs quickly and with the minimum of fuss. By quickly verifying your details and analysing your credit profile, we waste no time seeing if we can make you an offer. You can relax knowing our security technology ensures the confidentiality and safety of your information. You can apply for a 1 to 5-year business loan from £5-150k in just 10 minutes, with no hassle.
- Apply; We’ve made the application process simple, safe and hassle-free, with no paperwork to fill in. It takes just 10 minutes to apply for your business loan, and our decision won’t have an impact on your personal credit score.
- Get approved; The clever tech behind Esme helps us to assess your application quickly, so we waste no time seeing if we can make you an offer. We show you how much the business loan is going to cost you. Competitive rates, no hidden fees, simple terms.
- Receive funds; We can send money within an hour, so you should receive your funds on the same day if your account can receive faster payments. You can manage your account anytime, anywhere, and repay all or part of your loan early if it suits you with no extra fees.
