Equipment loan for ndis providers
NDIS provider finance is lending to registered and unregistered disability service providers, funding modified vehicles, support worker wages ahead of claim payments, SDA and SIL property, and assistive equipment.
How a equipment loan works for ndis providers
Assistive technology, hoists, adjustable beds, therapy and sensory equipment, and the rostering, compliance and client management systems a registered provider must run are all financeable against the assets over three to five years. Bundling a year of planned purchases into one facility keeps the cash buffer intact for payroll, which is where a provider actually needs it. Where equipment is fixed into leased SIL housing, raise the tenancy arrangement with us before ordering.
The cash-flow pattern we plan around
Fortnightly SCHADS award wages with penalty rates against NDIS claims paid after service delivery, with plan-managed and self-managed participants adding further delay.

Key terms
NDIS provider finance
NDIS provider finance is lending to disability service providers, assessed on NDIS claim history and participant numbers, and used for vehicles, equipment, property and the working capital between service delivery and payment.
Claim cycle gap
The claim cycle gap is the period between paying support workers for delivered services and receiving the corresponding NDIS payment, which widens where participants are plan-managed or self-managed.
What is equipment finance?
Equipment finance is any loan or lease used to acquire business equipment, with the equipment typically serving as security. The main structures in Australia are chattel mortgages, finance leases and rentals.
Low-doc equipment finance
Low-doc equipment finance approves smaller amounts (often up to $150,000–$250,000) without full financials, relying on ABN age, GST registration, credit history and sometimes a property-owner declaration.
