The cash-flow pattern
Where the cash gets tied up.
Cash is committed to stock before it sells. Seasonal peaks and supplier deals require buying big exactly when cash is thin.

FAQ
Retail funding questions.
SYSTM provides short-duration working-capital facilities from $20,000 to $250,000 for established Australian businesses. The right size depends on your business and how the capital will be used, and is confirmed on credit approval.
We aim to give you an indicative outcome the same business day, and a formal credit decision within 24 hours of receiving a complete file. Timeframes are targets rather than guarantees and depend on how quickly we receive the information we need.
Security is facility dependent. What is required — if anything — is assessed for each facility and set out in your letter of offer. We do not apply a one-size-fits-all rule.
Whether a director guarantee is required depends on the facility and is assessed case by case. Any guarantee will be clearly set out in your loan documentation before you sign.
Repayments are made weekly, typically by direct debit, over a term of 13 or 26 weeks. Every repayment is the same amount. The exact schedule is confirmed in your loan documentation.
Facilities run for 13 or 26 weeks, structured around a defined near-term business requirement rather than long-term debt.
