AuctionsPlus and StockCo by Heartland Bank are pleased to announce an Australian first digital livestock finance partnership. From today, StockCo’s finance is now directly available through the AuctionsPlus platform which will simplify the purchasing process and offer agents and producers a smart connection to livestock financing.

Medina Cicak, Heartland Bank’s Chief Commercial Officer said, “embedding StockCo’s simple finance application process into AuctionsPlus allows agents and producers to take advantage of market opportunities, make faster decisions and speed up their purchase and invoicing process – while maximising profits and getting the most out of their herd.”

StockCo’s livestock finance can be arranged and accessed directly through AuctionsPlus and is tailored to the unique needs of the purchaser, making applying for finance easy. StockCo’s livestock finance is linked directly to the transaction, meaning producers only borrow what is needed, thereby minimising their cashflow impact.

Wyn Snyman, AuctionsPlus CEO said, “we’re always looking for ways to make AuctionsPlus better for our customers, and this partnership with StockCo is an exciting step forward. By embedding finance into the platform, we’re making livestock purchasing easier, faster, and more accessible than ever.”

Existing StockCo clients can simply log into the AuctionsPlus dashboard to link their StockCo account and view their available finance balance, providing confidence when purchasing. New StockCo clients can easily apply via the AuctionsPlus website.

“StockCo is focused on supporting its clients and agents by streamlining the livestock finance process through technology, allowing its team of industry professionals to focus on supporting customers to grow their business.

“Our shared vision is to connect buyers, vendors and agents to the financial tools they need to operate at full capacity, enhancing profitability and fostering growth across the sector,” Cicak said.

Together, AuctionsPlus and StockCo are committed to investing in the agricultural community by providing access to finance solutions that maximise returns and streamline online transactions.
