About SafetyNet Credit

SafetyNet Credit was a credit lender. They used to offer a revolving line of credit to people facing unexpected financial challenges. They offered a credit limit of up to £1,000 to customers. If approved, they would send the cash to your bank account via internet banking or direct transfer on the same day.

SafetyNet offered a credit line to help people bridge their financial gaps. Unfortunately, SafetyNet went into administration on 9th January 2023.

Although SafetyNet is no longer lending, Drafty is – and we also offer a line of credit. If you’re approved for our line of credit, we send the money to your bank within 90 seconds. If you’re looking for an alternative to SafetyNet Credit, Drafty’s line of credit could be the answer.

What happened to SafetyNet credit?

SafetyNet Credit stopped operating and went into administration on 9th January 2023. Its parent company, Indigo Michael Limited, ran into financial trouble and had to close. The company, along with Tappily, offered short term credit to customers. Reduced lending volumes and a tough market made it hard for them to continue.

People who borrowed money still had to pay it back. But, on 9th April 2024, any remaining debts were cancelled and marked as ‘partially settled’ on the customers credit file.
