Business Cash Advance works like a business loan but offers greater flexibility, as firms only pay back an agreed percentage of the card payments their receive. This means that even in the quieter periods, it is affordable, Nucleus said.
“We understand that there is no longer a ‘typical’ business model and that means that there cannot be one-size-fits-all types of finance,” said chief executive Chirag Shah (pictured).
“Throughout the year, takings vary, some months might be busier than others due to a number of legitimate factors. This is why we’ve created Business Cash Advance.

Nucleus offers a range of funding solutions, including invoice finance, asset finance, working capital, property and construction finance and funding for the education industry.
