Checking if you qualify for a business overdraft does NOT affect your credit score. OverdraftMe's initial assessment is based on your business details - no credit enquiry is made until you choose to proceed with a formal application.
Takes 2 minutes. No credit check. No commitment. No cost.
Check my eligibility →Most people who apply directly to multiple banks end up with 3-5 credit enquiries on their file - each one reducing their score. With OverdraftMe, the entire comparison process is invisible to credit bureaus. One application, one enquiry, best result.
Every time a lender runs a credit check, it appears on your Equifax file as a "credit enquiry." Multiple enquiries in a short period signal to lenders that you're desperate for credit - and they start declining you.
By using a broker like OverdraftMe, you avoid the shotgun approach. We do the comparison work behind the scenes, identify the single best lender for your profile, and submit once. Your credit file stays clean.
No credit check. No obligation. Free broker service.

Bad credit doesn't automatically disqualify you. Over 60% of our clients have imperfect credit - paid defaults, judgments, or low scores. Non-bank lenders look at the whole picture, not just a number. Read our bad credit guide.
