Vehicle Finance for Sole Traders

How sole traders and subcontractors finance a work vehicle.

Low doc (no financials) up to $500k Funding from $20k–$10M+ 80+ lenders compared No long forms or paperwork

Sole traders and subcontractors are the bread and butter of vehicle finance — simple, fast commercial lending for ABN holders. Here’s how it works.

Financed as an ABN holder

As a sole trader you’re financed on your ABN, with the vehicle as security. That keeps the process quick and the rate competitive. Low-doc options mean you may not need full financials for an eligible, asset-backed deal.

What lenders look for

An established, GST-registered ABN and a clean recent credit record put you in a strong position. A deposit or property ownership can sharpen the rate further, but plenty of sole traders finance with neither.
