As summer arrives, many Irish businesses brace for seasonal swings. Some sectors heat up, while others cool down — but one constant remains: access to fast, flexible funding can make or break a business’s momentum. Whether you’re scaling up to seize a seasonal opportunity or bridging a cashflow gap, unsecured business loans and revenue-based financing could be the smart financial boost you need.
At BusinessLoans.ie, we work with hundreds of Irish SMEs each month — and we know that traditional bank loans aren’t always the right fit. Our unsecured options mean no need for property as security, and our revenue-based products flex with your turnover, not against it.
🚀 What is Revenue-Based Financing (RBF)?
Revenue-based financing is a flexible loan structure where repayments are tied directly to your sales. That means during slower months, you repay less — and when sales spike, you chip away more. It’s ideal for businesses with seasonal or fluctuating revenue.
✅ What are Unsecured Business Loans?
Unsecured loans don’t require you to pledge assets like property or equipment. Instead, we look at your trading history and current performance to offer term loans from €10,000 up to €500,000, with decisions in hours, not weeks.
💡 Real Use Cases Across Irish Industries
🛍️ Retailers: Stock Up, Not Stress Out
Summer means footfall, festivals, and tourists. One Cork-based gift shop owner used a €25,000 unsecured loan to bulk buy stock ahead of peak tourist season. With a strong summer forecast, the loan was paid down in just six months — and the increased margins made it well worth it.
“If I waited for the bank, I’d have missed the season entirely.”
🍽️ Hospitality: Renovate and Reopen
A Dublin café undergoing refurbishment faced delays in a grant payment. They tapped into revenue-based financing to bridge the gap. Because repayments were based on turnover, they weren’t under pressure during their soft launch phase.
“It gave us room to breathe and focus on getting customers back in the door.”
🛠️ Trades: Tools, Vans, and Team
A busy electrician in Limerick needed to add a van and hire an extra pair of hands to keep up with contracts. Traditional leasing didn’t work for second-hand vehicles from a private seller, so an unsecured loan of €18,000 helped him gear up in days — not weeks.
“No red tape. Just money in the account so I could say yes to more jobs.”
💻 Tech & Digital: Hiring Ahead of Demand
A software company in Galway landed two new clients and needed to recruit developers quickly. Rather than dilute equity, they chose a revenue-based facility to fund hiring and onboarding.
“It was smart capital that matched our growth.”
