Eligibility Criteria for a Prospa Business Loan
We know you don’t want to jump through hoops to get the funding you need. That’s why we’ve kept our eligibility criteria simple and straightforward:
- Be an Australian citizen or permanent resident.
- Be over the age of 18.
- Own an Australian business with a valid ABN/ACN.
- Have a minimum monthly turnover of $6K.
For our Plus loans, the requirements are a bit different to ensure we can provide the necessary funding for larger projects. You’ll need to:
- Be trading for at least three years.
- Have an annual turnover of $1 million.
- Own property.
These criteria allow us to offer loans that fit your business’s unique needs so you can get the funding you deserve without any unnecessary red tape. We believe in making this process as easy as possible because you’ve got enough on your plate.

If you’re applying for a loan over $150K, we may also need your last two years of financial reports and 12 months of bank statements. For Plus loans, we’ll also require your ATO portal access.
But don’t stress—there’s no need to prepare a business plan or navigate complex financial hoops. Our goal is to make this process as straightforward as possible for you.
