YouLend’s Berlin expansion fuels global growth after record revenue in 2025

YouLend has marked another year of rapid growth, earning recognition as one of the UK’s fastest-growing firms. The fintech company also secured a spot on CNBC’s list of the world’s top fintech businesses in 2025. Now, with a new Berlin office opened in January 2026, the firm is pushing further into Europe and beyond.

The company’s expansion follows a strong financial performance in 2025. Revenue climbed to $230 million in FY24/25, maintaining an average annual growth rate of around 60% since 2022. Profits also rose to $12 million, up from the previous year.

Despite scaling quickly, YouLend kept credit losses stable. The firm credited its investment in data, technology, and risk decisioning for this balance. At the same time, it expanded partnerships with major platforms like eBay, Qonto, myPOS, and Upwork. Recognition came from multiple directions in 2025. The company appeared on The Sunday Times’ Best Places to Work list and was featured in the Growth Index’s top 100 fastest-growing UK businesses. To date, YouLend has funded over 370,000 small businesses worldwide. Looking ahead, the Berlin office will serve as a hub for European growth. The firm also plans to roll out multi-product capital solutions across Europe and the Americas in 2026.

With a new base in Berlin and a track record of steady revenue growth, YouLend is positioning itself for further expansion. The company’s focus on technology and partnerships has supported its rise while keeping credit risks under control. More markets in Europe and the Americas are set to follow in 2026.
