Will an enquiry hurt my credit file?

Having a chat and sending your details to us doesn't put a credit enquiry on your file. A formal credit check only happens once you've chosen to proceed with a specific lender.

Do I need financials or tax returns?

Often not. Many vending finance applications are written low doc — usually driven by time in business, monthly revenue and the asset itself. If a lender does need financials, we'll tell you up front.

Can I get finance with a brand-new ABN?

It's possible. New-start and new-ABN options exist, and things like a property-backed guarantor or a slightly larger deposit help a lot. If it's too early, we'll show you the readiness checklist instead of wasting your time.

How much can I borrow, and over how long?

Typically $5,000 to $250,000+ for vending equipment, with terms up to 60 months. What you can actually service depends on your revenue — the repayment calculator gives you a realistic ballpark before you apply.

What does it cost me to ask?

Nothing. There's no fee to enquire and no obligation to take an approval. You're free to walk away at any point in the process.

New or used machines — does it matter?

Both can be financed. Used machines and private sales can need a bit more supporting information, and very old equipment may need a shorter term, but it's regularly done.

Is the interest tax deductible?

Business asset finance commonly has deductible interest and depreciation, but the treatment depends on your structure and use of the machines. Your accountant should confirm the numbers for your situation — we won't guess at it.

Understanding your weekly estimate

What does the weekly repayment range actually mean?

It's an indicative range, not a quote. We take the amount you enter, the term you choose and the current lender rate band we see in the market, then show the low and high end of the weekly repayment that band produces. Your actual repayment is set by the lender once they assess your application.

Why is it a range instead of one number?

Rate offers vary with ABN and GST age, trading history, credit file, deposit or trade-in, whether the equipment is new or used, and the security offered. Until a lender assesses you, only a band is honest.

What is included and excluded in the estimate?

The estimate covers principal and interest over the term you select, with no balloon or residual. It excludes establishment and account-keeping fees, insurance, GST treatment, freight, installation, stock and any early payout costs. Add those separately when you budget.

How accurate is it for used or already-sited machines?

Used, refurbished and sited machines are usually priced on shorter terms and firmer rates than brand-new equipment, so treat the higher end of the range as the realistic figure until a lender confirms.

What are the next steps after using the estimator?

Send your details through the estimator or the application form and we'll match you to lenders on our panel who fund vending equipment. There's no obligation and nothing goes to a lender until you ask us to.

Does using the estimator affect my credit score?

No. The estimator is a calculator only — no credit check, no enquiry recorded, and nothing shared with a lender.
