Repay, your way
Repay at any time over the 5-year term of the loan. We never charge a penalty for early or lump-sum payments.
An online loan with a human touch

Still have questions?
How long does it take to get a loan?
How is the interest rate calculated?
We calculate the interest rate on our small business loan as follows:
Current floating base rate + variance based on your personal and business information = interest rate
As a result, the interest rate varies by client.
What type of information will I need to complete the online loan application form?
