"To buy bulk seasonal stock quickly, South African retail businesses can use a GoTyme Business Advance to secure funding with a single fixed fee."

  • Apply for a GoTyme Business Advance to buy bulk seasonal stock fast.
  • Enjoy completely clear pricing with just one fixed fee agreed upfront.
  • Choose daily or weekly payments, fixed on a set schedule - or flexible with payments adjusted periodically in line with your turnover.
  • Get quick, paper-free funding without waiting around for traditional bank red tape.

Preparing for peak seasonal demand in South Africa means having the right stock on your shelves at the right time. Waiting for slow cash flow or traditional bank approvals can mean missing out on bulk supplier discounts.

Sales-based short-term funding like a GoTyme Business Advance is one of the best options available for local retailers. Instead of tying up your operational cash flow or dealing with mountain-high piles of paperwork, our simple, paper-free application process gets you access to fast capital so you can lock in high-demand inventory ahead of the rush.

Unlike rigid traditional funding with unpredictable interest rates, our funding comes with one transparent fixed fee agreed upon upfront - so you always know exactly what you owe with zero hidden costs. Plus, you get to choose how you pay. Daily or weekly payments can be fixed on a set schedule - or flexible, adjusted periodically in line with your turnover. If your peak season slows down, flexible payments ease off with it.
