Support for your repayments: Pay As You Grow
As the cost of doing business continues to rise, you may be finding it harder to run your business finances and could be struggling to manage repayments. A period of reduced payments or a payment holiday could give you some room to breathe.
- Pay As You Grow (PAYG) has three options available:
- Reduce monthly repayments for 6 months by paying interest only – you can do this up to three times. It is important to note that you will end up paying more in the long run.
- Payment holiday for 6 months – this is only available once and the total amount to repay will increase as more interest will be charged.
- Extend the term of the loan to 10 years and the interest rate of 2.5% stays the same.
Remember to consider that all three options will mean more interest is paid, so it’s important to think about whether there is a chance of your business fully recovering.

You can use our calculator to see how monthly payments and total loan cost might change under these PAYG options.

The following example may help explain how availing of the different options outlined above could impact your repayments, meaning your business could end up paying more and it could take longer to repay your loan in full.
In this example we’ll assume that your balance is £30,000, the interest rate is 2.5% APR, 2 years have passed on your term and you have 6 years remaining.
