Was dieses MCP kann

Checks Australian business finance fit, provides product and policy information, and submits consented broker callback requests.

check_fit
Check business finance fit
Checks whether an Australian business owner's finance need is something Switchboard Finance, a licensed finance broker, can help with, and which finance types fit. Covers ATO or tax debt, bank declines, caveat and second mortgages, private and commercial property loans, development, equipment and vehicles, invoice finance, overdrafts, bad credit and going-concern businesses such as motels. With amount, property value, timing and trading history it also checks loan size, LVR and time to fund against observed ranges, and returns documents usually needed, deal-breakers and an expected callback time. Example: {"purpose":"clear a $180k ATO debt this week","security":"warehouse worth $1.2M, $400k owing","amount":180000,"property_value":1200000,"existing_debt":400000}. General information, not a credit decision or advice.

request_callback
Request a broker callback
Sends a business owner's finance enquiry to a licensed Switchboard Finance broker, who contacts them by phone, SMS and email. Requires consent: true, meaning the person has agreed to this wording: "I agree to Switchboard Finance contacting me about this enquiry by phone, SMS and email, including follow-up emails I can unsubscribe from at any time." Returns a reference number and the expected contact time. Nothing is applied for and no credit check is run. Retries with the same idempotency_key return the original reference instead of creating a second enquiry.
