Home / Business Loan Calculator

Business Loan Calculator

Estimate repayments on a business loan for working capital, growth or refinancing existing business debt. Adjust the amount, rate and term to see what the repayments could look like.

Choosing the right structure

Business loans can be secured against an asset or unsecured. Unsecured loans often carry higher rates because the lender takes on more risk. Some lenders offer low-doc options for self-employed borrowers, which can involve different documentation and pricing.

What lenders usually ask for

Typically identification, business details, recent bank statements, and financials or BAS, depending on the loan size and the lender.

Frequently asked questions

How much can my business borrow?

It depends on your revenue, cash flow, time in business, existing debts and any security offered. Lender policies vary.

Can I get a business loan if my bank declined me?

Lenders assess applications differently, so a decline from one lender does not mean every lender will decline. A broker can review your situation. All applications are subject to lender approval.

What is the difference between secured and unsecured?

A secured loan uses an asset as security, which can mean a lower rate. An unsecured loan needs no asset but is often priced higher.

Does this calculator include fees?

No. Establishment fees, ongoing fees and charges vary by lender and would add to the total cost.
