A business loan is a commitment that runs for months or years, and repayments come out of the same operating cash flow as everything else. Before committing, it is worth modelling the weekly and monthly cost against the business's working-capital position, which is what this site is built to help with. Borrowing at a level that stays comfortable through a quiet quarter, not just a strong one, is widely regarded as the safer frame.
What this site is
A calculator and information tool. Not a lender, not a broker, not a registered financial adviser. Nothing here is personalised financial advice.
What the figures show
Modelled estimates based on the inputs you enter. Not a quote. Not an offer of credit. Not a guarantee of approval, rate, or fees.
What the lender decides
Final rates, fees, and approval are set by the lender after a CCCFA-appropriate assessment of the applicant's circumstances and credit decision.
Commercial disclosure
Businessloans.org.nz earns a commission from Prospa when a visitor applies through this site and their application is approved. The commission is paid by Prospa, not by the borrower, and it does not influence the rate Prospa offers. Full disclosure on the partner page.
Tax, GST, and accountant framing
Tax-treatment statements (GST claim timing, interest deductibility, depreciation rates) are general in nature and subject to your accountant's confirmation on the specific business position. For material amounts, professional advice from a registered financial adviser or chartered accountant is widely regarded as the safer frame.
