FAQs

  • Lopay works with YouLend Limited to offer cash advances to merchants using Lopay.

    YouLend Limited is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) as a Payment Institution to provide payment services within the UK under firm reference number 947287. Find out more about YouLend here.

  • You will be notified via email and within the Lopay app when a cash advance offer is available to you. A minimum of 3 months of trading history is required.

    The longer you've been trading through Lopay and the higher your monthly revenue, the larger your offers will be. Typically offers will be up to two times your monthly revenue.

    As an example, if you have an ecommerce business that has sales of £10,000 each month on average, and you started your business 12 months ago, you could be eligible for £15,000 in funding with a fixed fee of £1,500 and repayment of 20% of your daily sales.

  • With a cash advance you won't pay interest. You will only be charged a single fixed fee, so you know up front exactly what you will repay. All terms will be clearly set out in your Lopay app and you choose the size of the advance that suits you.

  • If you receive a cash advance it will be repaid over an agreed period via deductions from the payments you take through Lopay. However, if you're earnings are lower than expected and deductions from your Lopay transactions are insufficient, YouLend reserve the right to take repayments direct from your bank.
