What Our Clients Say
We had to find ways to support growth whilst waiting for our Credit. The £100,000 advance was a massive accelerator for aisle 3. GrantTree and their funding partner were amazing.
GrantTree's Advance Funding was instrumental in helping our business claim back our R&D Tax Credits early. This allowed us to keep the business going at a time we really needed money.
GrantTree has been a huge asset in making my funding stretch further. The Advance Funding product they offer was extremely useful for us this summer, and came at the perfect time.
We were pleased to hear about the Advance Funding opportunity from GrantTree. The process was painless, almost no form filling. We received a welcome advance straight away.
From first contact to money in our start-up’s account in 2 days; a refreshing facility for fast moving business that today’s banks will never be able to match.
GrantTree has always made the process as smooth as possible, and recently sourced a £190k loan that we could reinvest straight back into R&D rather than waiting for our next claim payout.
On top of maximising our claim, GrantTree were able to advance us a portion of our R&D Tax Credit windfall, helping to manage our cash flow.
