Are repayments tax-deductible?

In Australia, the tax deductibility of business loan repayments depends on the loan purpose. Generally, if the loan was used for business-related purposes, such as purchasing equipment, funding expansions, or working capital requirements, the interest paid on the loan may be tax-deductible. However, we strongly recommend consulting with a qualified tax professional to understand the specific implications for your business and ensure compliance with applicable tax laws.

Can I make a lump sum repayment?

A lump sum payment in the context of business loans refers to a single, large payment made to the lender that reduces the outstanding balance of the loan. This payment can be made in addition to the regular monthly or periodic loan payments.

When you make a lump sum payment, the lender applies it directly to the principal balance of the loan.

With the lump sum payment and any subsequent adjustments, you continue making regular payments until the loan is fully paid off.

Is there any early repayment fees?

There are no early payout fees. However, you will be required to pay a small percentage of the outstanding principal amount.
