Finance should feel like a superpower, not a headache. That’s why we created iwoca.
Customers and counting
We want small business owners to spend less time on paperwork and more time running their businesses.
When small businesses go to their banks for finance they face long waits, endless forms and absurdly rigid criteria.
That means most of the UK's 5.5 million small business owners spend more time than they need to checking boxes and filling out forms.

They were both working in finance when they noticed how small businesses were getting left behind by big banks. So they quit their jobs and put together a team to invent a new type of lending service using lightning-fast software. One that would give small business owners a great experience while getting the finance they need.
Over the past eleven years iwoca has grown from a small start-up to one of the fastest-growing business lenders in Europe. Now we're a team of around 400 in London and Frankfurt working towards the goal of funding one million small businesses.
We're a mix of developers, account managers, dog lovers, climbers and explorers.
