How we lend

We lend to people who can repay — and we say so when you can't.

No teaser rates, no countdown timers, no "everyone qualifies." Discipline on ability to repay is the brand. Here is exactly how a decision is made.

The process

You tell us the milestone

What the capital is for, how much you need, and a little about your income. You can type it, paste it, or send a recent payslip or bank statement.

We assess ability to repay

Against real figures, not a marketing promise. We look at whether the repayment fits your income with room to live. This is the line we hold.

A decision in 72 hours

From a person, with the reasoning. A yes confirms the amount, the price and the schedule. A no names the reasons and the path back.

Fixed terms, signed clearly

One agreement, one price, one schedule — under the Moneylenders Act 1951. The price you see is the price you pay for the full term.

Pricing

Fixed, and within the law.

Our pricing sits under the statutory cap set by the Schedule to the Moneylenders Act 1951. We quote it the honest way — a simple monthly rate — so you can do the maths before you sign.

  • 1% per month on secured credit.
  • 1.5% per month on unsecured credit.
  • Simple interest on the principal — no compounding surprises.
  • No charge above the cap. Charging above it would void the agreement under s.17A.
  • Repayment over a term you choose, within what your income supports.

Our pricing and disclosures are being aligned to the Consumer Credit Act 2025 ahead of the transition to the Consumer Credit Commission.

The honest "no"

The hardest and most important thing we write is a "no".

"The Angel Creditor" is not a lender of last resort. If the borrowing would be unwise — if the repayment doesn't fit your income, or the timing is wrong — we will tell you, name the reason, and point to the path back. A "no" today is rarely a permanent no. We would rather you borrowed well than borrowed fast.
