🏆 The UK’s #1 fastest-growing private company (The Sunday Times 100, 2024)
🚀 One of LinkedIn’s Top UK Startups and Deloitte’s fastest-growing UK fintech ever
🌟 Rated ‘Excellent’ on Trustpilot
Allica is a bank built especially for established businesses with between 5 and 250 employees.
A third of the UK’s economy depends on these businesses, yet they’re overlooked by the big banks with a service that is increasingly impersonal, inconvenient, and poor value. We’re here to change that.
Allica Bank is on a mission to give established businesses the banking they deserve. That means:
- a current account that rewards business owners for using it.
- a relationship manager whose name and number they actually know.
- powerful tools and technology that make life easier, not harder.
It’s proving to be a winning combination. Allica was named as Britain's fastest-growing private company in 2024’s The Sunday Times 100, and we’re also the fastest-growing fintech in the 26-year history of Deloitte’s UK Technology Fast 50 awards. Since we opened our doors in 2020, Allica has lent over £3 billion to established UK businesses and raised £4 billion in deposits.
From our offices in Milton Keynes, London and Manchester, we’re offering business banking how it used to be, just better.
