How working capital finance works

Working capital finance funds the day-to-day running of your business rather than a specific asset. Depending on the lender and amount, it can be unsecured or secured against business assets or property.

Timing is always up to the lender and depends on the amount and the type of facility. What we can do is respond promptly, tell you exactly which documents the lender will want, and help you get them ready so your application goes in complete.

Loan options

Ways to structure it

Which option suits depends on how you'll use the asset, your income and your plans. We'll walk you through the pros and cons.

Unsecured business loan

A lump sum repaid over a fixed term, with no specific asset as security. Usually needs a director's guarantee.

Business line of credit

Draw down funds as needed and pay interest on what you use.

Invoice / debtor finance

Unlock cash tied up in unpaid invoices from your business customers.

Secured business loan

Backed by property or business assets. Often larger amounts and longer terms.

Timing is set by the lender and depends on the amount, the type of facility and your circumstances, so we can't promise a timeframe. We'll respond promptly and help you prepare a complete application, which avoids unnecessary delays.

Do I need security?

Not always. Many working capital loans are unsecured but need a director's guarantee. Larger amounts may need security.

Can I get finance with an ATO debt?

Some lenders will consider it, especially if there's a payment plan in place. Be upfront with us and we'll look at the options.

How long do I need to have been trading?

It varies by lender and product. Tell us your situation and we'll check which options fit.
