Questions before you start?
Does Sahara Bridge Capital provide the money directly?
Sahara Bridge Capital helps businesses explore suitable funding routes and understand the information required for an assessment. Whether funding is provided directly or through a third party depends on the specific service and circumstances.
Which funding option should I choose?
The appropriate route depends on your business, funding purpose, financial position and other relevant circumstances. We can explain the available routes so you can consider which may be relevant.
Can a new business make an enquiry?
Yes. New and established businesses can submit an enquiry. The available options will depend on factors such as the business profile, location and funding purpose.
How much funding can I request?
Funding amounts vary depending on the type of funding, the purpose of the finance and the relevant assessment criteria. Submit an enquiry with the amount you are considering.
What information do I need to begin?
You can begin with basic information about your business, location, funding purpose and the amount you are considering. More detailed information may be requested if your enquiry can progress.
Is funding or a grant award guaranteed?
No. Funding or grant awards are subject to the relevant eligibility requirements, assessment and decision-making process. An enquiry does not guarantee an offer or award.
Will I be charged for support?
Any applicable fees or charges will depend on the service involved. Where relevant, these should be explained before you decide whether to proceed.
What happens after I submit an enquiry?
Your enquiry can be reviewed to determine whether a relevant funding route or service may be available. If it can progress, further information or supporting documents may be requested.
How long does the review take?
Timing depends on the funding route, the information available and the provider or programme's assessment process. An initial enquiry review is different from a final funding decision. Ask about expected timescales before making commitments that depend on receiving funds.
Is funding approval guaranteed?
No. An enquiry, eligibility check or application does not guarantee a loan offer or grant award. The relevant provider or programme administrator makes the decision after reviewing the request.
What fees will I need to pay?
Fees depend on the service and any funding arrangement. Any applicable Nord Bridge Capital service fees should be explained before you agree to the work. Lender charges or other costs should be identified separately. Review the written terms before making a payment or commitment.
What interest rate and repayment terms will I receive?
These are determined by the lender and the assessment of your business. Review the interest basis, repayment schedule, total cost, fees and any early repayment conditions in the actual offer. General website information is not a personalised quotation.
Will I need collateral or a personal guarantee?
Some funding arrangements require assets as security, a personal guarantee or a contribution from the business owners. Others may have different requirements. Any such obligations should be clearly stated in the proposed terms and understood before signing.
