Why SYSTM

Built differently from a bank.

Specialist SME credit, technology and speed — with a real person accountable throughout.

01

Speed

When the business opportunity is measured in days, a six-week credit process doesn't work.

02

Human decisions

Technology accelerates assessment. A person remains accountable for the decision and the relationship.

03

Short duration

Capital is structured around a defined near-term requirement rather than unnecessary long-term debt.

04

Direct access

Speak directly with people who understand the facility rather than navigating a call centre.

Eligibility

Who SYSTM lends to.

We focus on established operators with real trading history. Every application is assessed on its own merits, subject to credit approval.

  • Established Australian business

    Registered and operating in Australia with a current ABN.

  • 12+ months trading

    A trading history we can assess, typically at least 12 months.

  • Verifiable revenue

    Business revenue we can verify through your bank and accounting data.

  • Current ABN / ASIC standing

    Good standing with ASIC and no unresolved insolvency events.

  • Legitimate business purpose

    Funding is for a genuine business or investment purpose.

Indicative criteria. Confirmed on assessment. Subject to credit approval, eligibility and documentation.

Security

Assessed per facility.

Security and any director guarantees are assessed per facility and set out in your letter of offer.

Any director guarantee is assessed case by case and set out clearly in your loan documentation before you sign. We make no blanket guarantee requirement.

Repayments

Weekly, over 13 or 26 weeks.

Repayments are made weekly, typically by direct debit, over a term of 13 or 26 weeks. The cost is 0.8% per week on the amount borrowed, flat, so every repayment is the same and the facility winds down as the underlying requirement pays off.

Flexibility

Finished early? You pay less.

Pay out your facility early and we discount the remaining cost by up to 50%. How much depends on whether you are refinancing with SYSTM or paying out from your own funds; we confirm the figure before you pay. Refinancing options are available on request.

Early repayment is permitted. The early payout discount, up to 50% of the remaining cost, depends on the circumstances of the payout and is confirmed in writing before you pay.

What to have ready

A short list to start.

We only ask for what we need at each stage. Having these to hand keeps things fast.

  • ABN / ACN

  • Director / applicant identification

  • Business bank account details

  • Recent business financial information (where required)

  • The amount you need

  • What the funds are for

Only standard requirements are listed. Additional information may be requested during assessment.
