Lender requirements can include ABN details, asset description, supplier information, invoices or quotes, bank statements and financial information. Approval and available terms vary.

How it works

Compare the details before you apply

Use these points to understand the loan purpose, likely documents, lender criteria and repayment fit before moving ahead.

Vehicles and machinery

Finance eligible cars, utes, vans, trucks, machinery or specialist equipment.

Useful asset life

Repayments may be structured around the asset and business need.

Cash flow conscious

Keep more working capital available for operating expenses.

Asset finance vs general business loans

Asset finance is usually linked to a specific asset, while a general business loan may be used for broader working capital or operating purposes.

Because the asset and purpose are clear, lenders can assess the application differently to unsecured working capital. The age, value and business use of the asset may affect the outcome.

The most suitable option depends on whether the business is buying an asset, covering operating expenses or funding a mixture of needs.

What lenders may assess

Lenders may review the business trading profile, bank statements, credit history, repayment capacity and asset details. The supplier and purchase structure can also matter.

For vehicles and machinery, lenders may ask for registration details, invoices, tax invoices, serial numbers or valuation information.
