How We Make Money | Fundslender 

How We Make Money

We are committed to being transparent about how this website is funded. This page explains our commercial model clearly.

 

We Are Free to Use

Fundslender is free for consumers. We do not charge you to use this website, access our guides, or check your eligibility for products. There are no hidden charges, subscription fees, or costs of any kind to you as a user.

How We Earn Revenue

We earn revenue through referral fees. When we direct you to a lender, broker, or financial product provider and you proceed with an application or enquiry, we may receive a payment from that provider.

This is sometimes called a lead generation fee, referral fee, or commission. The fee is paid to us by the provider - not by you. The amount varies by provider and product type.

Does This Affect the Rates or Terms You Are Offered?

No. The commercial relationship between Fundslender and the providers we work with does not affect the rates, terms, or product features that lenders offer you. Lenders set their own pricing independently. We have no ability to negotiate rates on your behalf, nor do referral arrangements entitle you to preferential pricing.

Does Commercial Arrangement Affect Our Editorial Content?

We maintain editorial independence. Our guides, comparisons, and information pages are written to inform consumers - not to steer them toward specific providers for commercial reasons. We aim to present balanced information across product types and to include considerations that may lead you to the conclusion that a particular product is not right for you.

We acknowledge that as a commercially funded website, we have an inherent interest in consumers engaging with financial products. We work to manage this through our Editorial Policy, which sets out the standards our content must meet. You should be aware of this commercial context when using our site.

Which Providers Do We Work With?

We work with a range of FCA-authorised lenders and brokers across personal loans, secured loans, mortgages, remortgages, and car finance. The commercial relationships we hold change over time as we add and remove provider relationships. We do not publish a real-time list of every commercial relationship, but we commit to disclosing commercial relationships on any page where a specific provider recommendation or sponsored placement appears.

Not All Products and Providers Are Listed

Our coverage is not exhaustive. The providers that appear on Fundslender are those we have commercial arrangements with. Other providers exist in the market that may offer products suitable for your needs. We recommend using multiple sources when researching financial products - including the FCA register to verify any provider's authorisation status.

We Are Not a Regulated Advice Service

Fundslender is an information and comparison website. We are not FCA-authorised to provide regulated financial advice. Nothing on this website constitutes a personal recommendation. For advice tailored to your specific circumstances, you should consult an FCA-authorised financial adviser or mortgage broker.
