Review expenses alongside payment dates
Map raw-material purchases, work in progress and customer payment terms as separate stages. Finished production is not the same as cash received for the order.
Getting a request started
What to expect along the way
Business basics
Answer the form’s questions about the operation and provide accurate owner contact details.
Complete the request
Review the disclosures and the information entered, then verify your mobile number before sending it.
Defining the expense
Examples of expenses to outline
Production equipment
A machine purchase may also require tooling, installation and operator training. Include the work needed to connect it to the existing production process.
Materials
Supplier lead times and minimum quantities can bring purchasing forward. Work from the production specification and existing stock to define the order.
Facility capacity
Additional power, ventilation or floor space may be needed before a machine can run. Separate that setup work from the recurring costs of operating the larger production area.
Important points for applicants
Read about the process and our role
Where do my details go after submission?
This service is compensated by funding partners for referrals and the sale of submitted application details. We may share a request with up to five partners who can contact you; our compensation is independent of funding and we charge no application fee.
Who makes the funding decision?
A referral is not a promise that a partner will make an offer. The business must meet that provider’s requirements before financing can be agreed.
When should I expect an update?
A funding partner may ask for records or clarification before making a decision. The requested date should therefore be treated as part of the application, not a promise.
How do I confirm access to my phone?
A received SMS code does not replace the need to read the contact and sharing disclosures. Review those conditions before completing the submission.
