Banks finance assets. We finance operators.

Whether you're moving freight, running a job site, or working the land -
we structure finance around how your business actually runs.

Not how a bank spreadsheet thinks it should.

Operators & Contractors

Excavators, loaders, cranes, and yellow goods.

Finance that moves at the pace of projects - so you can keep quoting.

Truckies & Transport

Owner-operators to full fleets.
Prime movers, trailers, refrigerated transport and more. Structured around freight cycles, utilisation, and real operating costs.

Farmers & Ag

Tractors, harvesters, headers and specialist equipment. Structured around seasonal income - not monthly bank assumptions.

Estimate your Repayments

Our estimator gives you a realistic repayment range before you apply. Because equipment finance should be transparent - not guesswork.

Why Operators Choose Shaper:

You’ve built something real. Now the jobs are bigger. The machines are serious. And the stakes are higher. Banks slow down. General brokers guess.

We specialise in moments like this.

Shaper delivers finance that is straight, flexible, future-oriented, and fast. No red tape & no jargon.

Faster, Human Decisions

Get funded, fast (we've had approvals in under 30 minutes).

Your scenario is reviewed properly, not pushed through rigid bank rules.When something needs context, there’s a human looking at it.

Easy apply options (low-doc)

If you're thinking, "I won't have the paperwork to satisfy a bank". that's okay.

If you've got an ABN and GST registration, that's usually enough.

Flexible Structures for Cashflow/Trades

Seasonal payments? Owner-operator? We get it.

Balloon options, seasonal repayments, and terms shaped around cash flow - not just interest rates on paper.

Specialist Equipment Finance

We work with lenders who understand equipment - age, hours, resale value, and industry use.

That means fewer blanket declines and more sensible structures.

One Local Point of Contact

You deal with one Finance Specialist from start to finish.

No call centres, no hand-offs, no repeating yourself.

As a Director of Seage Transport, I’m always looking for the best finance deal when it comes to purchasing any new piece of equipment. After meeting Nicolas and the team 5 years ago, he has never let Seage Transport down, even when the deal has limited time. Shaper has financed over 15 pieces of equipment for us over the years from trucks, to forklifts, bobcats and cars. When anyone asks who we recommend - our answer is always Shaper.

I hadn't even been in operation for 12 months and these guys literally had me approved for a brand new Kenworth overnight! That was also with optional deposit and a killer interest rate! Can't go wrong!

Since sending my clients to Nic and his team the approval success rate for my clients has improved significantly which means I get paid for my services quicker. I couldn’t be happier with the services provided by the team at Shaper, I can’t say much for their dress sense but at the end of the day they know what they’re doing and it makes my life easier so I would happily refer them to any future business coming my way.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Why wouldn't I just go straight to my bank?

A bank can only sell you their own products. Shaper isn't restricted to a single lender. So we can often be much faster, much more cost-effective, and more flexible to your work.

A bank might see ‘truck’ or ‘tractor’ and just think numbers. We see how it fits into your work and your cash flow - and we fight to get you the best deal without all the red tape.

Do I need full financials to apply?

Not always.

Many of our clients go through a low-doc process - that means instead of full financial statements, we just need your ABN and GST registration. We can usually get you approved without the mountain of paperwork.

How fast can you get me approved?

Sometimes the same day. It depends on your situation and the lender we match you with, but we always push to get you an answer quickly - especially if you’ve already found the truck or machine you want.

Can you finance used trucks, utes, or machines?

Absolutely. Whether it’s fresh off the lot or a workhorse with some years on it, we can usually finance it. If it’s on TruckSales, FarmMachinerySales, or ConstructionSales, we can probably help.

What if I’m buying from a private seller?

No problem. We finance both dealership and private sales. We’ll help with the checks and paperwork so you’re protected and the process is smooth.

My cash flow is seasonal - can you work around that?

Yes. We regularly work with farmers, contractors, and operators whose income goes up and down with the seasons. We can structure your repayments to match your earning patterns, so you’re not squeezed in the quiet months.

I’m based in the country - does that make things harder?

Not at all. Our brokers work with clients all over Australia, from remote farms to city workshops. Everything can be done online or over the phone, and we’re used to working around patchy reception and long hours.

I’ve heard about ‘low-doc loans’ - what does that actually mean?

A bank is a group of brokers who can only sell you their own products. Shaper isn't restricted to a single lender.

We shape your options based on your life - not a banks commission targets.

Low-doc just means you don’t have to provide full tax returns or detailed financials to apply. Instead, we use alternative ways to prove your ability to repay - like your ABN, GST registration, and bank statements. It’s designed for business owners who don’t have everything neat in a folder (and who does?).
