Getting a request started

What to expect along the way

01

Funding purpose

State what the funds would pay for and when that payment is expected.

02

Business basics

Answer the form’s questions about the operation and provide accurate owner contact details.

03

Complete the request

Review the disclosures and the information entered, then verify your mobile number before sending it.

Defining the expense

Examples of expenses to outline

01

Job equipment

Owned equipment, hired plant and delivery charges have different cost patterns. Identify what the specific job needs and how long it will be in use.

02

Project materials

Supplier deposits may be due before materials arrive on site. Work from the specification and delivery schedule, including any staged orders.

03

Routine spending commitments

Wages, subcontractors and site costs can fall between progress payments. Define the period and obligations the request would cover rather than using the total contract value.

Review expenses alongside payment dates

Separate signed work from pending tenders, and include retention or inspection conditions when mapping receipts. Financing repayments would sit alongside the existing costs of delivering the job.

Review what accepting would mean

Check the details that affect your business

01

Available proceeds

02

Cost over time

Compare the sum of payments and fees across the whole financing arrangement.

03

Business budget

Consider the proposed payment dates alongside quiet periods and existing commitments.

Important points for applicants

Read about the process and our role

Where do my details go after submission?

This service is compensated by funding partners for referrals and the sale of submitted application details. We may share a request with up to five partners who can contact you; our compensation is independent of funding and we charge no application fee.

Who makes the funding decision?

A referral is not a promise that a partner will make an offer. The business must meet that provider’s requirements before financing can be agreed.

When should I expect an update?

A funding partner may ask for records or clarification before making a decision. The requested date should therefore be treated as part of the application, not a promise.

How do I confirm access to my phone?

A received SMS code does not replace the need to read the contact and sharing disclosures. Review those conditions before completing the submission.
