Been declined? Account frozen?
Our team can help.
A decline or frozen account usually reflects one provider's risk appetite, not the whole market. We work with a wide panel of UK and EU providers, each assessing risk differently, so we can match you with a stable provider that fits how you trade now and supports you as your business scales.
Discuss your approval optionsWhat you get when you work with us
Independent advice, a wider panel of providers, and support that doesn't end at sign-up.
Reach across the market
One conversation gives you access to our network of UK and EU providers, instead of applying one by one.
High-risk expertise
We work with sectors mainstream providers turn away every day. We know which underwriters say yes - and what they need to see.
Tailored to how you trade
Recommendations are based on your volumes, business model, and risk profile - not a generic shortlist.
From application to live
We prepare your documents, handle underwriter questions, and reduce the avoidable delays that hold approvals up.
From enquiry to live in four steps
We handle the search, the matching, and the back-and-forth - so you don't have to.
