Questions people ask first
The sensible questions, answered.
Funding Check checks your business against 609 live opportunities from 1,337 official sources, and shows the funder’s own words behind every rule.
Do you apply on my behalf?+
No. We show you what you match, why, and the funder's page. You apply directly and keep everything you win.
Where does this come from?+
Published criteria on official sources. Every rule is stored with the sentence it came from, so you can check our working against the funder's own page.
Is my company number safe to enter?+
It is public information on the Companies House register. We use it to read your public record so you do not retype it, and we never share it with funders.
How current is this?+
Deadlines are checked daily. Where a scheme has closed we say so rather than hiding it, because many reopen.
What does it cost?+
Seeing what your business matches is free. There is no card and no sign-up to get your first list.
Why does something say “possible” rather than “strong”?+
Either we still need an answer from you, or the funder published no test we could check. We would rather say we have not checked something than imply we have.
Is it only grants?+
No, and that matters. Loans, tax reliefs, in-kind support, equity and guarantees are all included and clearly labelled. A relief you can claim this year is often worth more than a competition you will not win.
