New Business & Ventures Loan offer

Borrow from
$2K - $100K

We’ll assess your income and expenses and offer a maximum lend based on what’s affordable — not the highest possible amount. You’re free to borrow less if you choose.

Our goal is to match you with a loan that fits comfortably within your budget, with repayments you can manage long term.

Personalised interest rate
from 8.99%

Rates vary by lender and your financial profile. We search our panel to find the lowest rate available for your personalised situation.

Our loans are fixed for the full term, and most lenders allow early repayment without penalty. All rates, fees and repayments are fully disclosed before you accept any offer.

Same day payments*

Most lenders release funds during normal business hours, with money typically available in your account within a few hours of disbursement.

Timing can vary depending on your bank and the lender’s cut-off times.

For any approved purpose we have
Unsecured loans

Most of our loans are unsecured, meaning you don’t normally need to use your car or home as security. Approval is based on affordability and your financial situation.

With some lenders, if you own or are purchasing an asset valued at $10,000 or more (such as a vehicle), the loan may qualify as secured — even if you borrow more than the asset value. Secured loans can attract a lower interest rate.

Many customers use a single loan to buy a used car and clear other bills at the same time, combining everything into one manageable repayment.

Flexible terms from
1 to 7 years

Longer terms reduce your regular repayments but increase the total interest paid. Shorter terms cost less overall but have higher repayments.

You’re free to make lump sum payments or repay early, and most lenders don’t charge early repayment fees.

When reviewing approvals, your adviser will work with you to choose a term and repayment level that fits your budget.

Establishment Fees vary by Lender from $150. You can repay weekly, fortnightly or monthly. Your rate is fixed for the life of the loan.

Any Questions?

What is Digital Advice?

Digital advice is financial guidance delivered online using smart technology and licensed advisers working together. At Lenny, our system reviews your application, income and affordability using secure data tools and lender criteria to match you with suitable loan options.

It’s not a generic calculator — it’s a structured, regulated process designed to help you understand what you can afford and what lenders are likely to approve. A qualified adviser oversees the process, and you can request human support at any time.

Digital advice allows us to move faster, reduce paperwork, and give you clear options without the pressure of a traditional bank appointment.

Can I talk to an Adviser?

Yes. Lenny combines digital tools with real advisers.

You can speak with a licensed loan adviser by phone or message at any stage of your application. Many clients prefer the speed of the online process, but if you want reassurance, clarification, or help choosing between loan options, an adviser is available.

We’re designed to be flexible — digital when you want speed, human when you want support.

How do I verify my income?

Income verification is secure and flexible.

Most clients verify income instantly using encrypted bank data or by uploading payslips. We use trusted verification tools that lenders already accept, which speeds up approvals and reduces paperwork.

If automatic verification isn’t suitable, you can upload documents later through your secure portal. We’ll guide you through what’s needed — nothing more than lenders require.

Your information is encrypted and handled under strict privacy standards.

How quickly can a loan get approved and paid out?

Loans through Lenny can be approved rapidly, with initial decisions in a few seconds, and final approvals often within a few hours, thanks to our efficient digital processing. Once loan agreements are signed, the loan amount is typically disbursed and available in your bank account same day or overnight depending when completed.
