Propel Finance: digital health score 51/100

We reviewed Propel Finance (propelfinance.co.uk) for the SME Lender Digital Audit, Credit Canary’s independent study of 104 UK SME lenders built only from public information. Propel Finance’s digital health score is 51 out of 100: the bottom third of the sector, and 92nd of 94 overall. Measured across the set, Propel Finance is 18 points below the sector median of 69. Its strongest area is accessibility, at 85 out of 100, a little behind the 87 SME lender average, so being usable for everyone, an Equality Act duty is already working. The biggest gain is in measurement: 0 against the 51 average, and the quickest way to climb the table.

For findability, 73 out of 100 is a little below the 81 average: showing up and making sense to Google. Mobile speed scored 54, 3 points below the 57 average, covering how fast the site feels on a phone. On measurement, Propel Finance scored 0, below the 51 average (whether the firm can see what is working). Accessibility: 85 out of 100, 2 points below the 87 SME lender average. That covers being usable for everyone, an Equality Act duty. The full breakdown, with the exact pages we tested and the fixes that would help Propel Finance most, is in the free report.
