0% iNTEREST FREE & apr INTEREST BEARING finance - can i offer both
We recommend, but don't insist, that you offer clients both the Uvepaid Legal Fee 0% Finance & APR Finance packages. This way, you are offering clients options and an affordable way to pay that covers the start of the case (smaller fees) all the way to the final hearing and beyond.
Before you can start offering, we need to onboard you and set a few things up with the FCA.

- For 0% Finance, we can usually have you set up & ready within 24 hours.
- For APR Finance, we have to register you as an FCA Introducer with our Lender(s) first, this makes you compliant to advertise your new Uvepaid Credit Options. And then can usually have you set up & ready within a few days.
- (It takes only minutes to Register, there's a small monthly subscription charge for FCA IAR status applied by our Lenders)
How do I offer Uvepaid to Clients
You offer Uvepaid on Billed Company Invoices, and Billed Chambers Fee Notes and advertise Uvepaid as a Way to Pay in your place of business and on your Website and all payment/Invoice communications. This is called Point of Sale (PoS) Credit, which means your Client sees the offer when they receive the Invoice.
We will set up everything and discuss with you or your IT section how & where to place Advertising links on invoices and online.

We do all the necessary credit & compliance checks, and at this point, they'll receive approval and can pay your fees. Once registered, they just log in to their Uvepaid Account to pay new invoices as the case continues.
The first-time user process takes a matter of minutes. Registered users can submit and pay an invoice in less than 60 seconds.

We Cover Legal Fees from £250 to £50,000 or more, and you'll typically receive payment via Uvepaid within 1 to 5 days, depending on the type of credit supplied to the client (0% Finance takes 24hrs or APR up to 5 days).
Full Payment will be made directly to your Business Account minus the Uvepaid Transaction Fee and your Client repays us on the agreed instalment dates.

What is the difference between 0% iNTEREST-FREE & apr INTEREST BEARING finance
Interest Free Credit (Unregulated loans) is usually under 12 months and contains no interest and no charges for the client, with any charge or processing fee covered or absorbed by you, the firm, barrister or chambers. These loans are typically known as buy now pay later.
APR Interest Bearing (Regulated loans) levy the interest on the client and/or are over 12 months in term and, as such, brokers must hold the appropriate Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) permissions.

yOUR UVEPAID TRANSACTION FEES EXPLAINED
Uvepaid aims to offer the lowest most competitive market APR rates possible so that you can bill your fees and get paid within days, and you pay a one time transaction fee for the credit that we offer your clients on your behalf. This fee covers Uvepaid for supplying, processing and supporting the credit that your clients need to pay your fees. And remember we offer the credit and take the credit risk. So once you're paid, you're paid.
When you offer 0% Interest Free - Our one-off transaction fee starts from just 5.25%, with a minimum fee of £50. Our fees increase the longer the repayment term (i.e. our risk exposure) So, for instance, if you wanted to offer a client 11 months to repay then the One Time Uvepaid transaction fee would rise and be around £127.50 on a £1,000 invoice. Your Client pays no interest on 0% Finance.
When you offer APR Interest Bearing Credit - Our one-off transaction fee starts from just 2.5% So, for instance, your client wanted 48 months to repay a £20,000 Legal Fee then the One Time Uvepaid transaction fee be around £500.
Remember, once you're paid, you're paid. We offer the credit and We take the credit risk.

What repayment terms should i offer to my clients
When you offer 0% Interest Free - We suggest but don't insist that new Uvepaid Firms and Chambers begin with a standard 4-month or 6-month repayment offering for their clients. Offering a standard repayment term, to begin with, speeds up the payment process for your client & keeps your transactions costs low and helps drive repeat business.
When you offer APR Interest Bearing Credit - Repayment Terms offered run from 24mths to 60 months

Can you offer our client longer repayment times on larger invoices
Yes. Payment Terms over 5 Years or more can be offered (subject to credit approval). These applications are dealt with individually by the Law Firm and Barrister team and you or your client should contact them directly to see if we can help.
payment at every stage of the matter
You don't have to wait until the end of the matter to get paid. We can offer payment on each billed Invoice or Fee Note, so the client can pay and settle your fees as the matter progresses. We (subject to credit and affordability) offer clients & businesses up to 3 ongoing credit schemes at any time. So there's no need to wait until the final bill, you get paid along the way, and the client gets to move the matter forward.
can i charge my client for using credit?
The Uvepaid Transaction Fees is the cost, to you and your business, of offering Credit products to your Clients, and under UK Law you cannot charge consumers if they pay via credit
Most Companies either absorb the cost of offering BNPL-style credit as it drives new and return business, but some increase prices in general as a way of offsetting.
