Flagship service · Purchase Order Funding

Many capable businesses lose contracts because they can't pay suppliers upfront. Our PO Funding covers the cost of goods or services needed to fulfil a confirmed purchase order, so you can deliver, invoice and grow.

  • For confirmed purchase orders from credible buyers in the public and private sectors
  • A structured, transparent process from enquiry to supplier payment
  • Support from people who understand procurement and delivery

02

Structure

We design the right combination of funding, advisory and operational support.

03

Enable

We stay close to execution so commitments are met on time and to standard.

Sustain

We build capability that remains in the business long after the engagement ends.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

More detail on eligibility, documents and the process is on the PO Funding page.

What does Only Finesse Group do?

Only Finesse Group is a South African business development, entrepreneurship support and enterprise funding solutions company. We provide Purchase Order Funding, business development and advisory, SMME and entrepreneurship development, and we design and deliver enterprise development programmes for corporates, government and development organisations.

What is Purchase Order (PO) Funding?

PO Funding is short-term funding for the supplier costs of a confirmed purchase order. It lets a business deliver an order it has already won when it can't pay suppliers upfront. Approved funding is paid directly to the suppliers, never to the applicant.

Who can apply for PO Funding?

Registered South African businesses with a confirmed purchase order from a credible buyer, a formal supplier quotation, a business bank account and a valid tax compliance status. Public sector orders also need CSD registration. New businesses are welcome to apply.

Does submitting an enquiry mean my funding is approved?

No. The online form is an initial enquiry. Funding is only approved after document review, due diligence and assessment, and is confirmed in a signed funding agreement.

Do you partner with corporates and development organisations?

Yes. We work as an implementation partner for corporates, government departments, foundations and development finance institutions running SMME, supplier and entrepreneurship development programmes, from programme design and beneficiary recruitment to monitoring, evaluation and impact reporting.
