Revolving Credit Facilities and Business Lines of Credit

Flexible funding solutions for UK businesses – smarter alternatives to traditional overdrafts.

At Tor Business Finance, we provide modern, flexible credit options designed to support your business’s cash flow and working capital needs. Whether you're an SME, a growing company, or an established business looking for more control over your finances, our credit solutions offer a practical and cost-effective alternative to a traditional bank overdraft.

What is a Revolving Credit Facility?

A revolving credit facility is a flexible funding solution that gives your business access to a pre-approved credit limit, typically over a 24 month renewable term. You can draw down funds as needed, repay them, and redraw, all within your agreed credit limit. Interest is only charged on the amount borrowed, and only for the period it is used.

This type of facility is ideal for businesses that experience fluctuating cash flow or need quick access to working capital.

Key benefits:

  • Flexible access to capital

  • Interest only on the funds used

  • Renewable facility, typically over 2 years

  • Ideal for managing ongoing cash flow

What is a Business Line of Credit?

A business line of credit provides a set amount of funding available for a fixed term. Unlike a revolving facility, once funds are repaid, they cannot be redrawn. However, lines of credit can usually be renewed at the end of the term, subject to your business’s financial performance.

This is a great solution for short-term funding needs, stock purchases, or bridging finance gaps.

Key benefits:

  • Fixed-term access to funds

  • Defined credit limit

  • Can be renewed subject to performance

  • Useful for project finance or seasonal needs
