No-nonsense, straightforward R&D tax credit loans.
Our mission is simple: empower businesses across the UK to optimise their innovation with R&D advanced funding. With your R&D tax credit claim received in advance, you can reinvest in new or ongoing projects and research. Giving you a head-start and an edge over the competition.
It is important to note that all claimant companies must now complete the Additional Information Form (AIF) prior to submitting a CT600, as claims without this will be rejected by HMRC. Providing this information and details to HMRC helps the government to identify high-risk claims. All claims submitted on or after the 8th of August 2023 must complete this form.

Access Funds within 1 week with R&D tax relief loans
Don’t wait longer than you have to! HMRC currently have a turnaround time of approximately two months. Based on other factors, it may take longer for many SMEs to get their Research and Development Expenditure Credit (RDEC) tax credits from the Government. Especially because you can only file for the credit at the company’s financial year-end.
With Buzz Capital, you can draw down those funds up to 3 months in advance of your current year-end and there is no requirement to wait until the CT600 has been submitted.

Most businesses underclaim or fail to make a claim at all. Don’t wait around delaying your R&D tax refunds when you can have them in a few days. Also, many businesses fail to claim their refunds properly and/or do not claim back everything they’re entitled to. Contact Buzz Capital to secure your R&D advance funding.
Frequently Asked Questions
R&D stands for “Research and Development”. A business undertaking research and development activities are essentially seeking to innovate, improve or introduce new products and services.
Whilst it is a prerequisite that the outcome of such activities should be uncertain and carry a significant degree of risk, the ultimate goal for a business is often to improve performance to ensure future competitiveness and growth.
A research and development tax credit is a cash payment provided by HMRC to eligible companies. Companies include their claim for an R&D tax credit when they file their accounts and submit their CT600 to HMRC at the end of their financial year. R&D tax incentives are intended to reward qualifying UK companies that are investing in innovation.
Days. Whilst a number of factors can influence the process, we aim to have the funds in your business account within a matter of days.
R&D tax reliefs have been set up by the Government to support companies that work on innovative projects in science and technology.
Under this SME scheme, it is possible for a range of companies, regardless of the industry, to claim tax credits for research and development. There is even the possibility of claiming relief for unsuccessful or loss-making research and development projects.
Once you have filed your CT600 tax return at the end of the financial year, HMRC aims to pay a tax credit within 28 days, but in reality this has proven in recent times to take much longer. If you want access to the funds right away, Buzz Capital can provide you with a quick R&D advance so you can cut out the financial waiting game.
Once we have a clear idea of how much your R&D Tax Credit is worth, we can advance you up to 80% as a cash payment directly into your bank account. You can then use the advanced cash to help your business grow; whatever way that may be.
Research & Development Tax Credits now require companies to complete an Additional Information Form (AIF) before submitting their CT600. This is required regardless of the claim date. Without this completed form, HMRC will reject the claim. It is therefore important for businesses to allow adequate time to complete the form.
