Fundbird has been established to help make the world of alternative finance and funding for small businesses easier and the new online platform will match SMEs with the best finance provider for their needs.

The service, which launched today, will help small businesses navigate the ever-expanding range of non-bank funding options to find the best match for their individual requirements. The short online application forms guide businesses to understand the type of finance they require to help ensure they are talking to the right lender. It provides immediate, personalised results for free. 

The platform covers multiple financial solutions, including secured loans, unsecured loans, asset based finance, invoice finance, peer-to-peer lending and start-up loans. The featured  lenders are well established and have been carefully selected by Fundbird based on criteria including competitive interest rates, flexible payment terms, and customer support.

Fundbird soft launched earlier this year and has already helped more than 1000 UK SMEs to find the right alternative finance solution for their needs.

“Small businesses are essential to our economies. Our mission is to bridge the gap between alternative finance providers and SMEs”, said Sharon Argov, CEO and co-founder. “Despite the rise of alternative finance models, extending their options far beyond the banks, the range of choice can be daunting for SMEs who don’t have the time to dedicate to exploring this new landscape. We want to make this new world of finance accessible for everyone.”
