Business owner reviewing ATO debt notice

Why ATO debt is different

The ATO isn't like other creditors. They have powers most lenders don't — garnishee notices on your bank accounts, director penalty notices that make the debt personal, and the ability to wind up your company without going to court.

And unlike a bank, they're not interested in negotiating when you're behind. They want payment. The longer you wait, the fewer options you have.

From 1 July 2025: ATO interest is no longer tax-deductible

The general interest charge (GIC) on unpaid tax is currently around 11%. And now you can't even claim it as a deduction. Every day you delay costs more.

How ABL helps:

We advance cash against your eligible assets — equipment, vehicles, machinery. No credit checks, no financials, no property required. Clear the debt today, repay us over 1–6 months.

The real cost of waiting

ATO debt doesn't sit still. Here's what happens when you delay.

Interest compounds daily

The GIC is currently ~11% p.a., compounding daily. On a $100K debt, that's $30+ per day — and it's no longer tax-deductible.

Garnishee notices

The ATO can issue a garnishee notice to your bank or debtors. Money owed to you goes straight to them. No warning required.

Director Penalty Notices

For PAYG, super or GST debts, the ATO can make you personally liable. Your home, savings and wages become fair game.

Wind-up proceedings

The ATO can apply to wind up your company for debts over $10,000. They don't need a court judgment first.

Three ways we help with ATO debt

Whether you want to clear it, keep your payment plan on track, or get one started.

Clear the debt entirely

Pay off the full amount. No more ATO letters, no more GIC interest, no DPN risk. The debt is gone — you repay us over 1–6 months instead.

Save your payment plan

Already on a payment plan but about to miss an instalment? One missed payment and the ATO cancels the plan — full debt due immediately. We fund fast so you stay compliant.

Fund the upfront lump sum

ATO wants 50% upfront before they'll approve your payment plan? We advance the lump sum. You get the plan. Repay us while you're paying them.

The point:

We're not competing with payment plans — we're the bridge that helps you get one, keep one, or avoid needing one altogether.

What happens if you default on a payment plan

ATO payment plans aren't forgiving. Miss one instalment and they can cancel the entire arrangement. When that happens:

Full debt becomes due immediately

Not just the missed payment — the entire remaining balance.

Recovery action escalates

Garnishee notices, DPNs, and wind-up proceedings are all back on the table.

Harder to negotiate next time

The ATO is less flexible with businesses that have defaulted before.

The fix:

If you're about to miss a payment, call us first. Same-day funding means you can make the instalment and keep your plan intact.

ATO debt funding FAQs

Yes. BAS, GST, PAYG withholding, superannuation guarantee, income tax, FBT — if you owe it to the ATO, we can help you clear it.
That's exactly when speed matters most. We can fund same day to clear the debt before the 21-day deadline — or immediately for lockdown DPNs where you're already personally liable.
Different tools for different situations. Payment plans keep the debt on your record, still charge ~11% interest (no longer deductible), and can be cancelled if you miss a payment. We clear the debt completely — you owe us instead of the ATO, with more flexibility if things change.
Paying the debt in full lifts the garnishee. We can fund same day so you can clear the debt and get the notice removed before it affects your cash flow or customer relationships.
Same day. Once we've valued your asset and completed paperwork, funds can be in your account within hours. Most ATO debt cases complete within 24–48 hours.
No. We assess the asset, not the borrower. No credit checks, no BAS, no tax returns, no financial statements.
Yes. Assets owned by you personally, your company, or a related party all work — if ownership is clear and we can secure or track it.
Talk to us. We're more flexible than the ATO. We can often extend or restructure — the goal is to help you succeed, not take your equipment.
