What this funding is designed to do

Short-term business finance is designed for a specific gap or opportunity. Equity Tap facilities can run from one to twelve months, with early repayment or an extension considered under the agreed terms.

Eligible facilities may include up to six months with no scheduled payments because interest is prepaid into the structure. Interest is not waived.

Why business owners come to Equity Tap

Banks are built for standard scenarios and longer processes. Equity Tap is built for direct specialist assessment. We listen once, look at the whole position and explain whether a workable structure exists. That matters when a settlement, creditor, opportunity or refinance cannot wait.

Equity Tap has lent its own money since 2022. Facilities range from $50,000 to $5 million, with terms from one to twelve months. Eligible transactions may settle in as little as 24 hours and may allow interest for up to six months to be prepaid as part of the facility.

What we need to understand

Start with the amount required, the business purpose, the deadline, the security property, any existing mortgage and the expected repayment event. Supporting information can include identification, rates notices, mortgage statements, contracts, trust documents and evidence supporting the exit.

“We fund people the banks cannot help, or can help, but not quickly enough.”
