Leasing for New Start-up Businesses
A limited trading history shouldn’t stop a new business getting the vehicles it needs. We work with underwriters who understand start-ups.
Built for new companies
No requirement for years of trading accounts before you can apply.
Director-backed applications
A director’s guarantee can support the application where needed.
Flexible or fixed terms
Choose a subscription while trading beds in, or a fixed lease if requirements are known.
Cars and vans
From a single company car to a small commercial fleet.
Getting a new business on the road
Traditional business leasing often relies on a track record of trading accounts — something a new company simply doesn’t have yet. Our start-up leasing route is built around this reality, using director guarantees, personal credit history and business plan detail alongside standard business documentation to assess new companies fairly.
What we typically ask for
- —Company registration details
- —Director’s driving licence and proof of address
- —Director’s guarantee (where required)
- —Business bank details
- —A short overview of the business

How long does my business need to have been trading?
There is no fixed minimum — we work with underwriters who specialise in assessing new companies on their merits, often alongside a director’s guarantee.
Can I lease more than one vehicle as a new business?
