What happens after approval
Approval is followed by the loan agreement and any final checks. Once you sign and those clear, the lender releases the funds — the drawdown. For short-term facilities this is usually quick.
What can affect the timing
Bank transfer times, weekends, and any outstanding documents can add a little delay. Completing the paperwork promptly and having your account details ready keeps things moving.

Frequently asked questions
Is approval the same as getting the money?
No. Approval means the lender will lend; the money arrives after the agreement is signed and any final checks clear. For short-term finance that gap is usually short.
Can funding be delayed after approval?
It can, by outstanding paperwork, bank transfer times or a weekend. Completing everything promptly and having your details ready minimises the wait.
