About Velocity Banking UK

An educational resource dedicated to helping UK homeowners understand alternative mortgage repayment strategies.

Our Purpose

Velocity Banking UK was created to provide UK homeowners with clear, accessible information about velocity banking and other mortgage acceleration strategies.

The concept of velocity banking originated in the United States and uses a line of credit (HELOC) as a financial tool to accelerate mortgage repayment. While the strategy does not translate directly to the UK market (where HELOCs are less common), the underlying principles of cash flow optimisation and strategic debt management are highly relevant.

We adapt these concepts for the UK context, exploring how offset mortgages, overpayment strategies, and other tools available to British homeowners can achieve similar results.

What We Offer

  • Free Calculator: Our velocity banking calculator lets you model different mortgage acceleration scenarios with UK-specific parameters
  • Educational Guides: Plain-English explanations of velocity banking, how it works, and the UK-specific considerations
  • Strategy Comparisons: Compare velocity banking with other approaches like overpayments, offset mortgages, and traditional amortisation
  • UK Context: All content is tailored for UK mortgage products, regulations, and financial products
