Overview

About Lending Stream

Editorial summary — not an endorsement.

Lending Stream provides UK short-term loans with very fast decisioning — sometimes in under two minutes for eligible applicants. Products are small-value and short-duration, with very high representative APRs typical of the high-cost short-term credit market. Treat these as emergency borrowing only after cheaper alternatives have been ruled out, and never borrow more than you can repay on the stated schedule.

Confirm current FCA permissions for Lending Stream on the Financial Services Register before you apply.
