Understand your next stepTaking on a loan is a significant decision. We start by understanding your debt, your cash flow and what you want to protect — then talk honestly about whether finance makes sense.
Look beyond a headline rate. Understand fees, guarantees, security and the total amount you would repay.
A useful solution addresses existing debt without leaving you unable to meet wages, suppliers and future BAS obligations.
Finance is not always the answer. Tax, legal and insolvency questions belong with appropriately qualified professionals.
You do not need to have everything figured out to start a conversation.
Share your ATO balance, business situation and any notices. If a legal deadline is involved, seek legal advice immediately.
Consider potential finance, its costs and obligations alongside your accountant’s view of the business.
If finance is suitable, review the proposed terms before a formal application. Approval remains subject to lender assessment.
Three practical starting points that help you move from stress to a plan you can stand behind.
A big bank is not your only starting point. Explore more than 40 lender options beyond the big banks, including non-bank and specialist business finance providers.
The right option depends on your business, not the size of a lender’s name. We look at cash flow, the debt you need to address and the obligations you would take on.
Lenders assess trading history, credit, security and repayment capacity differently. A bank decline does not guarantee approval elsewhere.
Compare property-backed and business cash-flow lending where available. Personal guarantees or security over business assets may still apply.
Compare total cost, repayment frequency, fees and default consequences alongside an ATO payment arrangement.
Not all lenders offer finance for ATO debt, and not every option will be available to your business. Finance remains subject to lender policy, approval, terms and fees.

Especially when your business is on the line. Here are some of the things business owners want to know first.
Some business lenders consider finance for ATO liabilities. Eligibility depends on cash flow, trading history, credit position, debt type and lender policy. Approval is not guaranteed, and the repayments must be sustainable.
Not necessarily. Compare the ATO interest applicable to your balance with the loan’s interest, fees, term and total repayments. A lower instalment can come with a higher total cost.
Some lenders consider applications without property security. Unsecured finance can still require a personal guarantee or security over business assets. Ask about the exact obligations before signing.
Seek qualified legal advice immediately and contact your accountant. Deadlines matter. A loan application does not pause enforcement, and funding cannot be guaranteed within the notice period.
Ask what assessment is proposed before you consent. An initial conversation is different from a formal lender application; credit checks and reporting practices depend on the process and lender.
