Purchase or expense
Use a quote or a clearly marked estimate to work out the amount you are requesting.
Business financing referrals · Print businesses
Put the cost of your next print run into a funding request.
Print jobs can require paper, ink and finishing work before the customer settles the invoice. Describe the equipment or production purchase you need and the deadline attached to it.
Preparing a request
From your business plan to an enquiry
Application questions
Provide industry, trading history, revenue and approximate personal credit information in the relevant fields.
Before sending
Check the contact information and disclosures, complete number verification and confirm the submission.
Purchase examples
Common spending needs in this industry
Printing equipment
A press or wide-format printer may need installation, color setup and operator training. Include those costs and distinguish maintenance contracts from the purchase itself.
Paper and finishing stock
Special paper, ink and laminate can have minimum order quantities or longer lead times. Connect the purchase to confirmed jobs and the stock already on hand.
Production capacity
A cutter, binder or finishing station may address a bottleneck after printing. Budget for its workspace and setup alongside the effect on existing production.
Assess the repayment commitment
Make room for repayments in your plan
Quoted amount
Ask whether any fees would be taken out before the funds reach your account.
Total payable
Review the combined repayment obligation rather than judging the offer by one payment.
Conditions attached
Read the requirements for security, reporting and any permitted uses of funds.

What affects available options?
Approval cannot be assumed from a successful form submission. Any offer depends on the funding partner’s assessment and the conditions attached to its product.
