We offer Business Loans or Line of Credit up to $500K, however the total amount of your loan will depend on the specific circumstances of your business.

We consider a variety of factors to determine the health of your business and based on this information we will make an assessment on how much you can borrow.

Use our loan calculator to discover much you could afford to borrow.

Prospa considers the health of a business to determine creditworthiness. For Small Business Loans or Business Lines of Credit up to $150K, no asset security is required upfront to access. And provided you continue to meet your loan obligations (as detailed in your contract), asset security won’t be required.

For funding over $150K, or where your combined exposure to our products exceeds $150K, property ownership required, and asset security may be required.

A Small Business Loan can be used for almost any business purpose – including for growth, to take advantage of an opportunity or to support business cash flow. For example, it could be used for business renovations, marketing, to purchase inventory or new equipment, as general working capital and much more.

For Business Loans we do charge a small establishment fee of 3-3.5%. Provided you continue to meet your loan obligations (as detailed in your contract) this will be the only Prospa fee you will pay.

For a Business Line of Credit, we charge a small fee of 0.046% for ongoing access to funds. For a Line of Credit of $40K, this is less than $3 per day (the cost of a cup of coffee). We do not charge an origination or establishment fee.

A lodgement fee may apply if your loan is secured with collateral.

You can choose to repay the entire amount of your loan early at any time.

If you decide to do this please speak to our friendly business loan specialists on 1300 882 867. They will provide you with repayment details and an early payout figure. This will be calculated as the total of the remaining principal amount and any accrued interest at the date of early payout, plus 1.5% of the remaining principal and any outstanding fees.

There are a number of options you can explore when you want to compare business financing options. Here are some to think about:

Line of Credit: If you are looking for a better way to streamline or fill cash flow gaps, a Line of Credit may be the right funding solution for you. With a Business Line of Credit, you can get ongoing access to funds and only pay interest on what you use. We offer a Business Line of Credit $500K, with a renewable 2 year term.

Equipment financing: Equipment loans are a way to finance purchases of equipment for your business. This type of finance is usually secured against the value of the business asset you wish to purchase. This can sometimes help to secure a low rate, although this isn’t always the case. So, if you need to purchase business machinery, IT equipment, tools, or even work vehicles, a Prospa Business Loan could be a good alternative to equipment finance.

Vehicle finance, Business car loan, Machinery finance: This can be a handy way of updating your fleet vehicles or to cover the cost of large assets like harvesters, excavators or commercial cookers. A Prospa Business Loan may be able to cover these items, talk to us today to find out more.

Business overdraft: This handy type of finance can help small businesses cover short-term cash flow gaps. It is often used to cover bills like payroll which can fluctuate if you employ seasonal casuals. It’s also useful to pay suppliers on time if you’re waiting for your own invoices to be paid by your customers. See you can use Prospa’s Line of Credit in a similar way.

Some commercial loans require a deposit. And while you don’t need a deposit to apply for funding with us, however it is a good idea to have a clear understanding of all of your finances before you apply.

It’s OK if you don’t have pages and pages of financial analysis to reference. We understand that small business operators are up against it and often struggle to keep up with the paperwork.

Like traditional lenders, we conduct credit checks to look at your personal credit score in conjunction with your business health. Credit reporting bodies will compile a report on your credit worthiness based on a range of factors which include how many loan applications you have already made, your current credit if you have any, any overdue bills, past bankruptcy if applicable and any pending writs or court judgments.

At Prospa, we don’t rely solely on your personal credit score, we focus on evaluating the health of your business. We have developed a complex credit assessment tool which takes into account over 450 separate pieces of information. It’s unique to Prospa and allows us to take the time to really understand how your business operates and what loan amount will be the most applicable to your business’s long-term stability.

For funding up to $150K you will need 6 months bank statements. And instead of having to submit pages of bank statements, you can connect to your bank account so we can instant assessment your financials.

For funding over $150K we’ll require additional financials like a P&L statement, as well as your ATO portal.

Yes. After building a strong presence in Australian, in 2019 Prospa launched in New Zealand. The challenges for business owners in New Zealand wanting to access finance were similar to those in Australia. In fact, small business loans in New Zealand were previously only available from larger financial institutions, that didn’t seem to offer the products and services that small business owners were looking for. With over half a million small businesses in New Zealand, there are many opportunities to support the growth and cash flow of kiwi small businesses. With applications in under 10 minutes and funding possible in hours, we are now helping to unleash the potential of many kiwi businesses.

We understand that circumstances can change. That’s why we offer a 14-day Change of Mind Policy. If you decide you no longer want the funds, you can cancel your loan agreement and return the funds free of charge, as long as it’s within 14 days of the loan agreement date.

To take advantage of this policy, simply contact one of our lending specialists at 1300 882 867, and we’ll assist you with the process.

If it’s been more than 14 days since your loan agreement date, you still have the option to pay off your loan in full to minimise interest costs. However, please note that fees and charges will still apply. For assistance with a full payout, reach out to our lending specialists at 1300 882 867.
