About Cashfloat
Welcome to Cashfloat! We opened our doors in 2014 because we wanted to help people borrow credit for emergencies. We were particularly interested in helping people with bad credit scores who find it hard to get hold of a loan. We recognise that payday loan borrowers are just regular people in unexpected situations. They just need the right help to be able to sort out their problems and get back on track financially. Unfortunately, lots of people never have that chance, particularly people with a poor credit score or people who can’t find a guarantor.

Responsible, Regulated Lending at Cashfloat
Cashfloat operates as a UK consumer credit lender within a clearly defined regulatory framework. We are authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and our lending activity is governed by UK consumer credit law. This regulation exists to ensure borrowing is offered responsibly, transparently, and with appropriate consumer protections in place.
You can learn more about how this regulation applies to Cashfloat, including what FCA authorisation means for borrowers and the standards lenders must follow, on our FCA authorisation and regulation page.
Before any borrowing is offered, lenders are required to assess affordability and creditworthiness to help prevent financial harm. At Cashfloat, these assessments are designed to ensure borrowing is suitable for a customer’s circumstances, not simply based on the amount requested. We explain how these checks work and why they are required under FCA rules in more detail on our affordability and creditworthiness page.
Consumer protection also includes the right to raise concerns and have them handled fairly. Cashfloat has a formal complaints process in place, and customers have access to independent dispute resolution if a complaint cannot be resolved directly. Information about complaints handling, consumer rights, and the role of the Financial Ombudsman is available on our complaints and consumer rights page.
We also recognise that financial circumstances can change. FCA rules require lenders to support customers who experience financial difficulty, and to treat these situations with care and consideration. The support available, alongside our approach to responsible lending, is outlined on our support during financial difficulty page, along with links to independent guidance and help.
