Meet Cashper
The friendly ghost behind every Compare Report.
Cashper is our comparison and matching engine. It holds the credit policies of all our lenders, checks your business against each one, and builds your Compare Report.
Why a ghost? Because you can see straight through one. Cashper is transparent by design: your Compare Report shows every option you qualify for across our lender panel, not just the lenders we have the best relationships with or earn the most from.

The process
Three steps. Real, qualified options.
Business funding, compared on real data, in three steps.
Every lender has its own policy, pricing and appetite. Cashper checks your business against them and shows you what you qualify for, before you apply.

Behind the scenes
We know what lenders need to see.
Not every lender needs every data source. Cashper knows which information each lender uses to assess a deal, so we connect to or collect only what’s relevant to yours, with your consent.
- Xero · direct connectionRevenue, profit and trends. Lenders assess what you can service on real financials.
- Bank data · read-onlyCashflow, balances, dishonours. Most non-bank lenders decide on bank statements.
- ATO · with your consentTax debt, payment plans, lodgements. A common reason for a decline quick quotes never see.
- ASICCompany status, directors, history. Confirms your structure and who would guarantee.
- ABN LookupABN age and GST registration. Time trading is a hard cut-off for many lenders.
- PPSRExisting security interests. Shows what’s already pledged and who can still lend.
Matched on lender policy, not a questionnaire.
Cashper holds each lender’s rules for our whole panel and checks your profile against every one, so options you wouldn’t qualify for never reach your report.
What we match on: minimum time trading · turnover · industry exclusions · ATO debt tolerance · existing PPSR registrations · security appetite · loan size limits.
No re-typing financials. No chasing paperwork. No applying to five lenders to find out who’ll say yes. Prefer not to connect? Upload your statements instead. We’ll do the rest.

Your Compare Report
See what you qualify for, and why.
Every option compared on the same four facts: Security, Term, Amount and Rate. There’s no overall score and no recommended badge. Each lender leads where it genuinely leads.

“Lender A leads on amount, term and rate, but needs a GSA and a director's guarantee. Let's talk through what that means for you.”
Why it matters
Real data in. Real options out.
Most comparisons are guesses. Lenders don’t guess. A few questions and an estimated rate tell you very little. If your comparison doesn’t review what your lender will, the options it shows aren’t real.
Trade Funding
- The information your lenders use
- Matched on what lenders actually check
- Ineligible options removed before you apply
Quick-quote comparison
- A few questions, estimated rates
- Matched on what you say
- Can be declined later, after a credit enquiry
The wrong fit costs more than a higher rate.
A poorly matched product follows a business for years, long after the recommendation or quick approval is promoted.
- Puts security at riskProperty or assets pledged that never needed to be.
- Locks out other providersCaveats, GSAs and enquiries can close doors to better options.
- Squeezes cashflowRepayments that don’t match how money comes in or leave enough to trade.

How do we get paid?
Comparing costs you nothing. Not comparing can cost you plenty.
The headline rate rarely tells the whole story. Fees, charges and loan terms can add far more to what you repay. That’s why your Compare Report shows every cost we can identify side by side.
In most cases, the lender pays us, and only if you decide to proceed with their product offer. For more complex deals, or where the lender pays us little or nothing, we may charge a fee for our service. It doesn’t happen often, but when it does, it’s shown on your Compare Report and we’ll walk you through it before you decide.
No obligation to proceed, ever.
What do I need to get started?
Your ABN, what the funding is for, and your business bank statements or accounting access (such as Xero).
Do I have to connect my accounts?
No. Connecting is the fastest way, but you can upload statements instead and we’ll collect what your lenders need. Your report will be just as accurate; it may take a little longer.
Which systems can I connect?
Xero and your business bank account. We check public records such as ABN Lookup, ASIC and the PPSR ourselves, and ATO information only with your consent.
Will comparing affect my credit file?
No. There’s no credit check until you choose to proceed with a lender.
How long does it take?
Your Compare Report is typically ready within 24 hours once your information and documents are in.
