The Creditcorp brand transition: a dated, sourced record
This page is the corporate-record account of the Creditcorp brand transition: what has been filed, what has been registered, what has been agreed, and what is — and is not — in effect today. It is the detailed, dated, citation-backed counterpart to the plain-English explainer at credicorp.co.uk's brand pages and to the accessible “the name” page on the brand front-door. If you want the short version, read those. If you are doing due diligence, read on — every claim below links to a primary source.
The direction of travel is that the consumer-facing identity is emerging from Credicorp toward Creditcorp. That transition is under way, not complete. The two marks are in active, parallel use within a single group, under a written agreement, and the operating lender continues to trade under the existing Credicorp name at credicorp.co.uk for now.
At a glance
- Existing mark — Credicorp: UK00004156742, Registered, Classes 36 and 45, held by Credicorp Limited.
- New mark — Creditcorp: UK00004379570, Application Published, Classes 35 and 36, applicant CM Beyer Limited.
- Coexistence agreement: signed 30 April 2026, English law, between the two companies under common directorship.
- Operating today: the lender continues at credicorp.co.uk under the Credicorp name.
The existing Credicorp mark (registered)
The Credicorp wordmark — UK application/registration number UK00004156742 — is registered. It has an effective date of 6 February 2025 and was entered on the register on 23 May 2025, in Classes 36 and 45. The proprietor is Credicorp Limited (Companies House 16093826), the operating lender. This is the mark the customer-facing business trades under today.
The new Creditcorp mark (pending registration)
The Creditcorp wordmark — UK application number UK00004379570 — was filed on 28 April 2026 in Classes 35 and 36 by CM Beyer Limited (Companies House 17009212). The UK Intellectual Property Office published the application on 15 May 2026 in Trade Marks Journal 2026/020, opening the two-month opposition window. On current dates that window closes around 15 July 2026 (extendable once, to three months, by a notice of threatened opposition filed in the first two months).
Until the IPO issues a registration certificate, the correct description of the Creditcorp mark is “filed” or “pending registration” — not “registered”. The dated account of the publication event is in a separate article:

The 30 April 2026 coexistence agreement
The two companies — Credicorp Limited (Companies House 16093826) and CM Beyer Limited (Companies House 17009212) — are under common directorship and operate the coexistence of the two marks under a written Mutual Trademark Coexistence, Consent and Licensing Agreement signed 30 April 2026, two days before the Creditcorp application was filed. The agreement is governed by English law. Trama Legal s.r.o. is identified as the parties' UK IPO representative in clause 16.2.
The agreement cross-licenses the marks between the two companies so that both Credicorp and Creditcorp can be used within the one group without conflict. A clause-group tour, and the full PDF, are available:

Both marks, one group, in active use
This is the point most relevant to a due-diligence reader: the transition is not a single company swapping one name for another. It is two related UK companies, under common directorship, holding two marks that are both in active use:
- Credicorp — registered, held by the operating lender, used on the live customer site today.
- Creditcorp — pending registration, applicant CM Beyer Limited, used on the brand front-door and corporate-record sites as the emerging identity.
The coexistence agreement is what makes that parallel use orderly rather than adversarial. For the disambiguation of unrelated same-name companies on the register, see the separate disambiguation article.

What is in effect today
The operating lender continues at credicorp.co.uk under the Credicorp name for now. The Creditcorp identity is the direction of travel, surfaced on the brand front-door and in any teasers, but the two businesses remain separate for the time being. Nothing on this page should be read as “the rebrand is done” — it is an emerging transition, recorded here as it happens.
Whether body-corporate lending sits inside or outside the FCA consumer-credit regime is a separate question, covered on the lending-and-regulation page.
