Diagnostic equipment

A scanner or calibration system may require software, fixtures and training as well as the main unit. Check ongoing subscriptions separately from the initial purchase.

02

Parts inventory

Common service parts and special-order components tie up cash for different periods. Use booked jobs and normal stock turnover to describe the parts you need to buy.

03

Service bay

A lift installation can involve floor work, electrical supply and inspection. Include those costs and any time the existing bay will be unavailable.

Information for business owners

Points to review before starting

What should I understand about provider referrals?

The referral process involves selling submitted application information to funding partners, with no more than five receiving one request. We receive partner payments whether the request is funded or not and impose no application charge on you.

How does a provider decide?

The requested amount expresses what the business wants to explore. It is not an approved amount, and a funding partner may offer different terms or no financing at all.

Why can request timelines differ?

Submission and receipt of funds are different stages. Any timeline must be confirmed with the funding provider after it has reviewed the request.

How do contact preferences affect the request?

Read the disclosures presented with the application rather than relying only on this page. Submission includes a separate contact-consent review and a mobile verification step.
