Solo by MYOB

PowerPass credit account

The PowerPass Credit Account gives you quick access to capital with flexible repayment options.

There are no credit card fees when paying down your balance, no account management charges, and you can track everything through the Trade Portal.

This option works brilliantly for small businesses that need regular access to materials but want to manage their cash flow more effectively.

PowerPass 30-day account

For larger projects with longer payment terms, the PowerPass 30-day account is a game-changer.

You get 30-day trading terms to pay invoices, which can significantly boost your cash flow.

There’s no interest if you repay within the 30 days, no credit card fees, and no account management charges to worry about.

Everything is tracked through the Trade Portal, too, making it easy to stay on top of your accounts.
