The debt facility will enable the fintech to provide over £200m in annual funding and advance its product development.
"The vast majority of SMEs we interact with are willing to grant us access to their bank data via Open Banking. They’re familiar with this tool because it is commonly used with their accounting software. They see the benefit of a simpler process than manually providing bank statements and other data. Nor do they have to make personal guarantees when applying to us."
Triple Point provided the debt facility to support the company in advancing its UK solar and energy storage projects.
"We have a strong, long-standing relationship with Innova, and this significant deal represents an exceptional opportunity – supporting the acceleration of the energy transition industry and backing one of the UK’s leading operators."
The fintech firm has closed a £200m debt facility provided by funds managed by affiliates of Fortress Investment Group.
"We are delighted to secure this £200 million debt facility, as it enables us to extend our reach, empower even more digital businesses and provide access to non-dilutive working capital,"
The new debt financing follows an earlier facility extension with Pollen Street Capital.
"We started iwoca after the financial crisis to offer SMEs the support that was so badly needed during uncertain times. Now, over 10 years later, we are fully tested and have proven that we can be there for SMEs when they need us the most. With this new funding, we’re in an even better position to help smaller businesses in the UK and Germany at a time of economic uncertainty. These SME businesses form the basis of a strong economy, and iwoca will lead from the front to help them thrive and achieve their goals."
