A look at the steps
How a request moves forward
Set out the need
Describe the amount and timing required for your planned business spending.
Add the figures
Complete the revenue, business-age and approximate credit-range questions using current information.
Confirm the details
Check the application and disclosures, then use the SMS verification step to complete submission.
Your funding purpose
Put the expense into context
Space fit-out
Contractor work, signage and fixtures may require staged payments before opening. Separate those expenses from the lease deposit and ongoing occupancy costs.
Equipment
An additional location may need its own equipment rather than spare capacity from the first site. Include delivery, installation and staff training in the budget.
Opening inventory
Initial stock must be bought before the new location begins trading. Distinguish the opening order from replenishment the existing business already funds.
What to expect from us
Answers before you submit
How do referrals and compensation work?
We are paid to refer business applications and sell the submitted details to funding partners. A request may reach up to five partners, payment to us is not conditional on funding, and you do not pay this service an application fee.
Can a request be declined?
No funding commitment is created by completing this request. Eligibility, amounts and contract terms are matters for the provider assessing the application.
How is the review schedule determined?
The application lets you state when funding is needed, but availability is decided separately. A partner’s assessment and agreement may take longer than the business deadline.
Why does the form ask for contact consent?
Take time to read the application’s contact permission and privacy disclosures. SMS verification is an additional step that confirms you can receive a code at the supplied number.
