Repaying it couldn't be simpler.

A small, fixed slice of each day's card and online takings is set aside automatically to repay your funding. The rest lands in your account, usually the same day. Busy day, you repay a little more. Quiet day, a little less.

1. You take a sale

A customer pays you as normal, by card machine or online.

2. A small % is set aside

An agreed fixed share of that sale goes towards repaying your funding, automatically.

3. The rest is yours

The remainder settles straight to your business bank account.

Repayment (20% example)Settles to you£1828 Jul£90 sales£13129 Jul£655 sales£18430 Jul£920 sales£15231 Jul£760 sales

Each bar is a single day's takings. The cyan slice is what repays your funding that day; everything below it is yours. The amount always tracks your sales, so a quiet day never stings.

A £1,000 day? About £200 repays your funding and £800 settles to you. (20% example rate.)
Busy trading periods

Your sales increase

When customer footfall spikes and your sales volume grows, your automatic payback percentage clears down your balance much quicker.

Sales Volume: High Clears down faster
Quiet seasonal cycles

Your sales slow down

If trading trends slump or you close your doors for a holiday week, the payback drops down proportionally with your takings, keeping your bank reserves safe.

Sales Volume: Low Protects cash reserves
Questions? We've got you

No jargon. Just straight answers.

The stuff UK business owners actually ask us before they apply.

How much can I access?
Most businesses can access between £5,000 and £1,000,000, usually up to around twice your average monthly card and online takings. The exact figure comes down to your sales, but there's no harm in checking what you'd qualify for.
How quickly can I get the money?
You'll normally get a decision within 24 hours of sending your statements, and the funds can land in as little as 24 to 48 hours after you accept. No drawn-out bank meetings or weeks of waiting.
How do the repayments actually work?
You agree a small, fixed percentage of your daily card and online sales, and that's it. Busy week, you pay back a little more. Quiet week, you pay back less. It moves with your takings, so it never clobbers your cash flow.
Will applying hurt my credit score?
Checking your eligibility leaves no mark on your credit file. A personal guarantee is needed to go ahead, but you're under no obligation to take an offer once you've seen the numbers.
Do I need to own my home or put up security?
No. It's unsecured and you don't need to be a homeowner. We're looking at how your business trades day to day, not at your house.
I've had a CCJ, or the bank turned me down. Worth a try?
Very possibly, yes. Because the focus is on your everyday sales rather than just your credit history, CCJs can often be considered, and around 9 in 10 applications are approved.
What can I spend it on?
Whatever moves your business forward: stock, equipment, a tax or VAT bill, a refurb, hiring, marketing or opening a new site. There are no restrictions on how you use the funds.
Who actually provides the funding?
Vaulex Flexible Financing is an official introducer to YouLend, an FCA-authorised payment institution that has funded over 370,000 businesses. We help you apply and get the most out of the process; YouLend provides the funding.
What do I need to apply?
Just the basics: at least 3 months of trading, £5,000 or more in monthly card or online sales, your recent business bank statements (or a quick Open Banking connection), and ID for the owner(s). That's enough to get you an offer.
Are there any early repayment fees?
None. Clear your balance early and there's nothing extra to pay. Better still, once you're around 60% paid down you can usually top up again.
