- If you have borrowed less than 25% of the annual turnover you stated on your original Bounce Back Loan Scheme application form, you are eligible for a Top-Up. The combined value of your original loan amount and Top-up cannot exceed 25% of your originally stated turnover, and is subject to an overall cap of £50,000.
- An interest rate of 2.5% per annum applies on the Top-Up. This is the same interest rate which applies to your existing Bounce Back Loan.
- The UK Government covers the interest on your original loan amount and the Top-Up up to the date on which your original interest free period on your existing Bounce Back Loan expires (i.e. 12 months after the initial draw-down of the original loan amount).
- No capital repayments are required up to the date on which your repayment holiday on your existing Bounce Back Loan expires (i.e. 12 months after the initial draw-down of the original loan amount).
- The term of the Top-Up will expire on the same date as the term of your original Bounce Back Loan.
- You may only apply for a Top-Up once.
