How can our sole trader loans help you?
A Monzo Business loan allows eligible sole traders to source finance.
With our sole trader business loan, you can choose how much you would like to borrow (£200 - £25,000) for your business and for how long. The loan terms vary depending on the amount you borrow. See at a glance what you’ve paid, how much is left to pay, and how much it costs.
Choose a repayment date that suits you, and change it if you need to (there's no fee!). If you need to change it more than once you can with no fee, you'll just need to get in touch.
Expect more from your loan
If your business is growing, you shouldn’t have to jump through hoops if you want to repay early or pay off a little extra. Repayments are no problem with a Monzo loan, you can do this straight from the app with no fee.
It makes sense that if you pay extra you’ll reduce your monthly repayments and the total cost of your loan so that’s exactly what happens.
Customise how you see & manage your loan
Running a business is hard work. Whether your loan is for managing cash flow, paying suppliers or trying to grow your business, give it a name and add an image of your choice.
Your loan sits alongside your Pots, so it’s easy to see the progress you’re making at a glance.

What is an APR?
APR stands for annual percentage rate. It tells you the rate of interest you'll pay on an annual basis including any compound interest and expected fees (like upfront fees). It won't include missed payment fees or early repayment fees – but we don’t charge these.
Representative APR. You may see two types of interest, representative and personal. The representative rate is what we'd reasonably expect to offer at least 51% of people. By law, we have to show you this. But we'll always tell you the exact rate you'll pay, and what that means in pounds and pence, before you borrow from us. The rate you’re actually offered is your personal APR – this is usually based on things like your credit score.
