Balance over time

What your scenarios reveal

Adjust the loan amount

See how borrowing more or less changes your repayments. A $10,000 difference in loan amount can shift your monthly repayment by $150-200 depending on the rate and term.

Test different interest rates

Even a 1% difference in interest rate has a meaningful impact over the life of a business loan. On a $50,000 loan over 5 years, the difference between 7% and 9% is about $2,700 in total interest.

Shorten the term

A shorter loan term means higher repayments but significantly less total interest. Run the numbers for 3 years vs 5 years to see the trade-off between cash flow and total cost.

Compare repayment frequencies

Switching from monthly to fortnightly or weekly repayments can save you interest because the balance reduces faster. The comparison table shows all three side by side so you can see the difference.

What lenders look at

Business financials

Lenders review your profit and loss statements, bank statements, and BAS lodgements. They want to see that your business generates enough cash flow to cover the repayments alongside existing commitments.

Time in business

Most lenders look for at least 6 to 12 months of trading history. Longer-established businesses with consistent revenue generally access better rates. Some lenders specialise in newer businesses with shorter trading histories.

Credit history

Both your personal and business credit scores are assessed. A clean credit history with no defaults or late payments generally means access to more competitive rates from a wider range of lenders.

Loan purpose and security

Lenders consider what the funds will be used for and whether you can offer security (such as property or equipment). Secured loans typically attract lower rates because the lender has collateral to fall back on.
