Finding the right funding

What does Revy offer?

Explore a small business loan, merchant cash advance, business line of credit or Revy Scale. Revy Scale is for funding requests of $1 million and above. Start with the expense you need to cover and how long you expect to need the money.

How is a loan different from a line of credit?

A loan provides a lump sum and has an agreed repayment schedule. A line of credit lets a business draw as needed up to an agreed limit. Check how fees and interest are charged, including when the facility is unused.

How does a merchant cash advance work?

A merchant cash advance is generally repaid from a share of future card sales. The advance agreement determines how much is collected, when collections happen, and what happens if sales fall.

What can business funding be used for?

Common uses include stock, supplier invoices, wages, equipment and expansion. The finance agreement sets out any restrictions on how you can use the money.

Can I apply for more than $1 million?

Choose Revy Scale for a request of $1 million or more. Prepare a breakdown of how you’ll use the funds and how the business expects to repay them.

Applying

What details do I need to start?

Have your funding amount, what the money is for, your business name and a contact name ready. You can add your ABN if you have it handy. A Revy account gives you a place to find the request after submitting it.

Does submitting a request run a credit check?

The online request does not run a credit check. A later assessment may need further checks or documents. Revy will explain what is required before that stage.

What happens after I submit?

Your request appears in your Revy account with a reference number. A request is the starting point for a review. Any financing offer and agreement come separately.

How long does an application take?

You can fill in the online request once you have the details above. The time needed to assess it depends on the request and whether more information is required.

Can I apply as a new business?

You can describe what your business does and what you need funding for in the request. The trading history and documents a lender needs depend on the product and the assessment.

What if I need to correct something after submitting?

Use the contact form and include your request reference. Keep your sign-in password, recovery code and bank details out of the message.

Repayments and costs

How do I estimate repayments?

Use the repayment calculator and enter the amount, term and an annual interest rate to compare scenarios. The figures are estimates for a fixed monthly schedule. An actual offer may have different fees, rates or repayment dates.

What should I look for in an offer?

Check the amount you receive, total amount due, rates, fees, repayment dates and what happens if you repay early or miss a payment. Look for any security or guarantee requirements.

Can I repay early?

Read the early repayment terms in the offer. Some agreements apply fees or calculate the outstanding balance differently when you repay early.

Does the calculator work for a line of credit or cash advance?

It models a single loan paid monthly. Line-of-credit costs can depend on draws and balances. A merchant cash advance can collect against sales. Ask for the cost and repayment method for the product you choose.

Accounts, cards and rewards

Where can I see my requests?

Sign in to your Revy account to view your requests and references. Contact Revy with the reference if you have a question about a specific request.
