Business financing referrals · Seasonal businesses

Plan the costs that arrive before seasonal sales.

A seasonal business may pay for stock and preparation long before its main sales period. Explain the purchases, supplier deadlines and operating window behind your funding request.

Business spending

Connect the request to a business cost

01

Seasonal inventory

Advance orders may secure stock but also tie up cash before trading starts. Use past sales and remaining inventory to define the amount you need to purchase.

02

Equipment

Servicing or replacement may need completing before the business can handle peak demand. Include setup and the time needed to make the equipment ready.

03

Costs during the working period

Temporary staffing, premises and supplies can begin before receipts build. Identify the period to be covered and account for quieter weeks after the peak.

Our service explained

Information about applying through us

How does sharing information support a referral?

After submission, we may sell your application and contact information to no more than five funding partners. Their referral payment to us does not require a successful funding outcome, and there is no charge from us for applying.

Are approvals guaranteed?

Submitting business details does not reserve funds or guarantee approval. The funding provider controls its eligibility review and any proposed amount, price or conditions.

Is there a fixed decision time?

Your urgency helps describe the business situation but does not create a guaranteed response time. Each partner determines the review steps it requires.

Why is a mobile number part of the request?

The application asks you to review contact consent as well as verify your mobile access. Check the Terms and Privacy Policy before deciding to submit.
