Homebase will benefit from Novuna’s proprietary soft search functionality which provides confirmation whether a customer will be accepted or declined for their preferred credit option with 100% accuracy before undertaking the full application, without impacting their credit score.
Novuna’s unique tailoring functionality also enables Homebase to work with its customers to tailor the right repayment options to suit their individual circumstances. Turning what could be a straight decline into a more affordable payment plan and enabling customers to flex the terms.
In response to increasing demand for finance options, the new partnership complements the interest free and buy now pay later options provided by PayPal.
