What are FundTap's eligibility requirements?

Your business needs to be registered in New Zealand or Australia, invoice other businesses or government, and use Xero, MYOB or QuickBooks.

Can startups use FundTap?

FundTap requires some trading history. Businesses that have been operating for at least 6 months and have at least one outstanding invoice from a creditworthy client are typically eligible.

What if I've been declined before?

FundTap assesses both your customers' payment reliability and your own business's credit and financials. Because it advances against your invoices and doesn't require the property security a bank facility usually does, it can be accessible to businesses that have been declined elsewhere. It's worth checking your eligibility separately.

Do I qualify for FundTap?

TL;DR: Eligibility for FundTap focuses on the invoice and the customer, not just your business credit. You qualify if you operate in AU or NZ as a registered business (ABN or NZBN), use Xero, MYOB, QuickBooks or Reckon, and have unpaid invoices (B2B or B2C) from credit-worthy customers.

Here’s what FundTap looks for when assessing eligibility. If you tick these boxes, you’re likely a good fit.
