Swoop made the entire funding process incredibly straightforward and stress-free. From the outset, the platform was easy to navigate and clearly designed with businesses in mind. The team took the time to understand our needs and presented funding options that were genuinely relevant, rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. What really stood out was the level of support throughout the process. Communication was clear, responsive, and professional at every stage, and we felt well informed from initial enquiry through to completion. The expertise and transparency provided gave us real confidence in the decisions we were making. Overall, Swoop is an excellent solution for businesses looking to explore funding options efficiently and with expert guidance. I would highly recommend them to any business seeking a reliable, knowledgeable, and customer-focused funding partner.

Working with the team at Swoop Finance has been genuinely brilliant, both as a partner and as an accountant, recommending them to clients. Their platform makes the funding process feel clear and accessible, and their team really take the time to understand each business before suggesting options. I’ve referred several clients through Swoop this year - from start-ups to established companies and each one has come back saying how seamless and supportive the experience was. From my side, collaborating with Swoop has been effortless. They genuinely care about helping business owners grow sustainably, and their communication and professionalism make them a standout partner in the finance space. Great for accountants looking to add value to their clients and for business owners looking to explore funding with confidence.

We recently worked with Swoop Funding to help finance our new van purchases, and the experience was outstanding from start to finish. The process was smooth, transparent, and far easier than we ever expected. A special shout-out goes to Ikrah, who was absolutely fantastic throughout. She was proactive, knowledgeable, and incredibly supportive—always quick to respond, always clear in her explanations, and genuinely committed to finding the best possible solution for us. Her professionalism and friendly approach made the entire journey not just stress-free, but genuinely enjoyable. Thanks to Swoop—and especially Ikrah—we were able to secure the right funding quickly and confidently. We couldn’t be happier with the service and highly recommend them to anyone looking for business finance done right.

Swoop have been nothing short of excellent. From sign-up to installation, the whole experience has been great. I can’t recommend them highly enough. There’s no more lag when streaming, and the service has been so good that I’ve also switched my business internet to Swoop. I’m really glad to now be on FTTP- previously, I was using wireless 5G for home and FTTN for the business, and neither came close to the speed and reliability we have now

Equipment leasing is similar to a loan, however, the lender is the owner of the equipment and the business pays lease (or rent) payments to the owner of the equipment over an agreed upon term. Leasing differs from a loan in that it does not appear on your company balance sheet and the lease payments are deductible expenses on the income statement.

Leases can provide much needed flexibility and can be structured depending on the cash flow cycle of your business.

Why equipment leasing?

Tax benefits

For most lease programs, the business owner can write off the entire lease payment as a business expense, not just the interest paid. This means the entire amount paid for the equipment can be written off by deducting the monthly lease payments on the annual tax filing.

Stay efficient

Keep the business operating efficiently or meet increasing demand with the newest and most efficient tools.

Ease of application

Depending on the size of the equipment purchase; usually under £200,000 can be very quick and easy. Small ticket items are driven by the type and value of the equipment, as well as the credit quality of the business, usually resulting in a 24 to 48 hour application process.
