In their own words · from the filing

Standard payment terms

UK Finance Ltd's standard payment terms are within 30 days of receipt of a correct, undisputed VAT invoice, agreed contract detailing payments due or a payment request agreed in writing by an authorised representative of the business. The criteria for us to make a payment within 30 days is an approved purchase order (PO) and for the PO number to be quoted on the invoice. Any invoice received without this will be paid, but could be later than 30 days.

Dispute resolution

UK Finance Ltd is committed to ensuring all invoices are paid as soon as possible. This means we pay every invoice approved for payment at the time of us generating the payment runs, leading to suppliers sometimes receiving funds up to two weeks early. All disputes are resolved by discussion either by phone or email by our dedicated accounts payable team in a fair and timely manner. If the supplier feels we haven't met the standards mentioned, then this can be raised to the Financial Controller who will then look into the dispute and resolve or escalate to senior management as appropriate.

How UK payment reporting works

What is a Payment Practices Report?
UK companies and LLPs above a size threshold — broadly, two of: turnover over £54m, balance sheet over £27m, or more than 250 employees — must report twice a year, under the Reporting on Payment Practices and Performance Regulations 2017, how quickly they actually pay suppliers: the average time to pay, the share of invoices paid in 30 days or fewer, 31 to 60 days and 61 days or longer, and their standard payment terms. Those thresholds apply to financial years beginning on or after 6 April 2025; for earlier financial years they were £36m and £18m, with the same 250-employee test.
What does "paid outside agreed terms" mean?
The share of invoices paid later than the terms in the supplier contract. If terms are 30 days and an invoice is paid on day 45, it counts as paid outside terms, regardless of the headline average.
How often is this data updated?
Each report covers a six-month period and must be filed within 30 days of that period ending, so a company's record refreshes roughly twice a year. PaidLate re-reads the register as new reports are filed.
Is this official government data?
The underlying payment figures come from the company's own statutory filings on the gov.uk payment-practices service; company-status data comes from Companies House. PaidLate calculates trends, comparisons and summaries from those records. It does not use surveys or credit-agency scores.

How this is compiled. Built from official records only: Companies House and the gov.uk payment-practices service. The payment figures are self-reported — companies over the size threshold must file them by law and the board signs them off. No credit-agency data. The numbers are theirs; the plain-English read is ours. This is information compiled from public records under the Open Government Licence v3.0 — not a credit rating and not advice.

The 31-day comparison figure is the median across 6,185 companies with a current statutory report — every sector pooled, not an average of sector medians (how the figure is built).
