How do emergency loans work?
You can borrow money in an emergency by applying online and submitting all the required information. Once you have the cash you can use it for any type of emergency and pay it off in easy instalments over 12 months..
Fees and interest rates
There are no hidden fees and charges with our emergency cash loans. We also don’t add any extra fees if you pay back your loan sooner than scheduled. So you can pay it back as soon as you’re ready.
Our fees include:
- $0 application fee (even if your application is not approved)
- $400 establishment fee (included in the amount borrowed)
- $16 PPSR and security check (included in the amount borrowed)
Keep in mind that you may incur additional fees each time you miss a payment, and this may affect the length of your loan.
Interest is calculated daily based on the outstanding balance and is applied monthly to your account. Your interest rates are fixed for the loan term — so you know exactly what to expect.
If a scheduled payment is returned unpaid, we may issue a $35.00 debit dishonour fee. This fee is not subject to interest, though you’ll continue to pay the usual interest charges as described.
