So, when I first saw the pop up on the Net I was a bit sceptic, but I tried anyway just to see what would happen. To my amazement and shock I received a reply within a few hours and it was positive, then I received a mail from a personal assistant to help me with any queries, she was amazing and on time with her replies. Thank you Bridgement! the funds really helped me with purchasing of new equipment.

Frequently asked questions

What is BridgePay?

BridgePay is a flexible payment option that you can use to settle your business invoices without having to pay anything upfront. With BridgePay, we’ll settle your supplier and you’ll pay us back over 12 weekly payments. With participating suppliers, you’ll pay no interest.

What does it cost when paying with BridgePay?

When paying with BridgePay, there are no upfront costs or on-going fees. Depending on the agreement in place between us and your supplier, your 12 week repayment term may be partially or entirely interest-free. Should you repay in full during your interest-free period, using BridgePay will cost you nothing and you will simply repay the original purchase amount. Following the interest-free term (if only partially interest-free), you will pay a simple 2-3% per month interest rate on your purchase amount.

How do I use BridgePay to pay my suppliers?

Apply online in 2 minutes and we’ll let you know what credit limit we’re able to offer you. Once approved, you can then order from your supplier as usual and send us the invoice. You will then be able to choose BridgePay as your payment method and approve the payment - we’ll settle your supplier and your order will be processed. You’ll then repay us over 12 weeks (potentially interest-free). You can even settle early at any point in time without paying any penalties.

Once approved, you’ll be able to use BridgePay as many times as you need within your limit, at any supplies that accept BridgePay as a payment method.

What happens if I miss a payment?

Your weekly payments will be automatically debited from your bank account. Should you not have the necessary funds in your account such that you miss your payment, your account will be debited the following day.
