We understand why businesses need short-term finance

UCapital helps you with short-term finance

UCapital offers creative consumer and business loan solutions for the Self-Employed. Whether that be for a purchase, refinancing, or to access equity. We have a suite of private funders, non-bank lenders, tier 2 banks, and tier 1 banks that we work with, that are really good in the self-employed and commercial space.

Our offering includes self-employed Full Doc, Lite Doc, or Low Doc options. We service both established businesses with their full financials ready, and also borrowers unable to fully verify their income. Including everything in between with a “No Doc” option if required.

Clients can use retail shops, offices, light industrial warehouses, rural farms, and residential properties as security for cash-outs or to purchase.

What makes us unique:

Meet the team

Jacques Pretorius

CEO/CO-FOUNDER

After enjoying several years as Director of Sales & Marketing, driving consecutive year-on-year growth in revenues and actively building internal sales capability, for a leading brand within the security industry in South Africa, Jacques decided to relocate to Australia and test his entrepreneurial flair by founding a start-up. 

Hungry for a new challenge, and, through market analysis, Jacques identified an emerging opportunity within the Financial Services sector for an agile and market-responsive lender specialising in short-term loans to the small business sector. And so UCapital was born.
