Answer

How can I get a better interest rate on a business loan?

Better rates follow a stronger case — clean records, a good credit record, healthy affordability, and borrowing from a position of strength.

What earns a better rate

Lenders price for risk, so lower your apparent risk: keep records current, build your credit score, and show comfortable affordability. Applying while trading is strong helps too.

Then compare

Even with a strong case, compare offers on total repayable — the best rate is the one with the lowest all-in cost and terms that suit you. See how to compare offers.

Frequently asked questions

Does my credit score affect my rate?

Yes. A stronger business credit score lowers your apparent risk, which tends to unlock better rates. Improving it before applying can pay off directly.

Is the lowest rate the best deal?

Not always. Compare on total repayable with fees included, and weigh non-price terms like no personal guarantee and flexibility. The cheapest number is not always the best loan.
