iwoca Ltd.

La nostra storia

iwoca offers flexible credit to small businesses across Europe, allowing them to take advantage of opportunities previously only available to their larger peers. From placing larger stock orders to bridging cashflow gaps, finance helps power our customer's growth.

We launched iwoca in 2012 and have already grown into one of Europe's leading fintech lenders. More startup than financial institution, we use technology to eliminate the cost and complexity associated with traditional business finance. That means we offer instant decisions and have no upfront fees, no lengthy forms and no long-term commitments.

Most importantly technology has allowed us to build a revolutionary risk model that understands any small business based on its trading data. Take an online retailer for example - analysing customer feedback scores, seasonal trends and profit margins helps us to predict the company's future health. In fact we look at thousands of data points for every applicant to make fair lending decisions, instantly.

La nostra visione

iwoca is breaking down the barriers that stop Europe’s 20 million small businesses from accessing finance. 

Christoph and James launched iwoca in March 2012. They were looking for a challenge and saw the business finance space as ripe for disruption. Since then iwoca has grown to a team of almost 200, based in central London.

Mission

Since 2012, we've lent over £400 million to over 20,000 businesses across Europe. Our customers include everything from cafés to car dealers, salons to solicitors. Along the way we have built a sophisticated technology platform, won numerous awards and grown a fun, and vibrant team.

However, we’re still near the start of our journey – our aim is to finance a million small businesses within a decade and so we need more smart, hands-on people to help us reach this goal.

I nostri valori

Everyone at iwoca is smart, humble and motivated with a growth mindset, passionate about learning and developing themselves and united in their passion to grow an amazing business.
