Do I have to upload bank statements?

Not to compare. Only once you take an offer, and only what that funder needs.

Not to see your options. You can compare offers on business details alone, with nothing uploaded.

Documents come in at the point you decide to proceed with a funder, because that funder has to verify what they quoted on. The typical ask is recent business bank statements, and depending on the product and amount it can extend to filed accounts, VAT returns or an aged debtor ledger.

Two practical notes:

PDF statements straight from your bank are cleaner than screenshots or spreadsheet exports, and they get read faster.
We do not use bank connections. You upload your statements once and we pass them to the funders working on your request, so nobody asks you twice.

You are never obliged to upload anything. Declining simply means that funder cannot complete their assessment, and you can stop there.
