Equipment Finance

Finance options for the purchase of vehicles or equipment for your business

Why choose Equipment Finance?

Our Equipment Finance options help you purchase or upgrade vehicles and equipment without drawing on your working capital. We offer both Finance Leases and Chattel Mortgages, each with potential tax saving benefits and flexible payment options to match your cash flow.

Choose between a Finance Lease and a Chattel Mortgage:

	Finance Lease	Chattel Mortgage
How it works	Suncorp purchases the vehicle or equipment and you enjoy the use of the goods for an agreed time in return for rental repayments.	You have full immediate ownership of the vehicle or equipment with Suncorp holding a charge over the goods until the final payment is made.
Amount financed	Suncorp finances 100%, so no capital outlay or ownership obligation is required. Minimum facility amount of $20,000 applies.	Choose between paying a deposit to reduce the overall debt or ask us to finance 100% of the purchase price. Minimum facility amount of $20,000 applies.
Flexible terms	1-5 years	1-5 years
Flexible repayment options	Tailor the repayments to suit seasonal cash flow. A lump sum payment known as the residual will be payable at the end of the Lease. This is based on the value of the equipment at the end of the lease per Australian Taxation Office guidelines.	Tailor the repayments to suit seasonal cash flow. You can choose an optional lump sum payment, known as a balloon payment, at the end of the term. This helps to reduce repayment amounts during the loan.
Tax benefits	Repayments are generally tax deductible and you may even be able to claim an input tax credit.	Interest and depreciation may be claimable.
GST	GST is payable on each repayment. You may be able to claim the GST paid via Input Tax Credits monthly, quarterly or annually.	We can fund the GST on the purchase price. There’s no GST on the repayments.

We also offer luxury car leases for vehicles above the ATO threshold and novated leases for employee salary packaging.
