Merchant Card Advance

Do you take card payments, either in person or online?  Depending on your monthly card revenue, you can borrow between £1,000 – £1 million. And unlike a typical bank loan, repayments are made as a fixed percentage of your daily card takings – so you don’t repay the same agreed amount every month.  As your sales fluctuate, so do your repayments.

Asset Finance

Buying cars, vans, plant and machinery? Maybe you are buying an asset such as solar panels? Why not conserve your cash and spread the cost over a number of years? We have a number of lenders we work with and will find the right solution for you.

Commercial Loans

A Commercial Mortgage is a long-term loan taken by a business which is secured on a specific property or properties. With many different commercial mortgage lenders and literally hundreds of different commercial mortgage products, selecting the right one may seem confusing, but that’s where an experienced commercial finance broker can really help.

Brainwave Research UK Limited

I recently had the pleasure of working with Shadowfax Funding to secure funding for my company, and I cannot speak highly enough of the owner, Andy. From the outset, he was incredibly efficient, trustworthy and dedicated to finding a solution that would work for us.

Despite hitting several dead ends, Andy persevered and continued to search for opportunities that would fit our unique circumstances. He was always available to answer our questions and provide us with updates on the progress of our funding search, which gave us great peace of mind.

In the end, Andy found a UK government grant that was perfect for our company, and we couldn’t be happier with the outcome. His dedication, knowledge, and expertise made all the difference, and I would highly recommend Shadowfax Funding to anyone seeking funding for their business.

Overall, I am extremely grateful to have had the opportunity to work with Andy and the team at Shadowfax Funding. They truly went above and beyond to help us secure the funding we needed, and I would not hesitate to recommend their services to anyone looking for a trustworthy and efficient funding solution.
