What are your interest rates?
The cost is based on the product selected, the asset, term and loan size. The first step in the application process is an estimator tool that will give you a good indication of your final pricing.

How are loans assessed?
We assess each loan application using a rigorous proprietary risk assessment approach. Depending on the size of the loan, this may include:
• current debt capacity
• historical financial performance
• the likelihood of default of similar businesses
• directors’ creditworthiness
• the business’ past behaviour towards financial obligations
• the potential for us to collect on the debt in the event of default.

What is market lending?
Also known as peer-to-peer lending, marketplace lending brings together investors who have money to lend, with borrowers who are looking for a loan. Our online platform matches borrowers to investors providing better outcomes for both parties. Borrowers get more accessible financing and investors are able to diversify their portfolios.
