Frequently asked questions

A short term business loan could help you:

  • Increase your cash-flow and purchase new stock to grow your business
  • Respond to mandated upgrades and product changes from head office

Swoop’s service is completely free for franchise partners to use.

Swoop’s lenders include high street banks, challenger banks and other lenders you may not have heard of - there are literally hundreds of lenders in the marketplace, and Swoop has access to most of them.

The length of time an offer is valid for will vary but this will always be communicated clearly so that franchise partners will know how much time they have to accept an offer.

Franchise partners will need to provide bank details, proof of identity and confirmation from Franchisor that they have been accepted as a franchisee.

It varies, but it can be as fast as 24hours for some lenders. For larger amounts, there may be a delay of up to two weeks while the lender checks the borrower’s credentials.

Loans and Invoice repayment terms vary from days to years. Generally, the longer the loan term, the lower the interest rate. When taking out finance, borrowers should consider what they can afford to pay back each month.

Depending on the type of finance, the customer’s property may be at risk if they do not meet repayments. Franchise partners should discuss this with their Funding Manager to ensure that they are taking on risks with which they are comfortable.

Swoop is designed so that many products can be investigated and applied for through the platform, without the need for specialist knowledge. When help is needed, customers will have a dedicated Funding Manager with expertise in the particular area of finance you're after.

If you’ve decided to buy and open a franchise, it’s important to consider how you will finance it. 

Typical routes would include a loan from a bank, but what about alternative lenders? Read our handy guide on how to get a franchise loan here.
