Am I eligible to get a Rent Loan?

Be at least 18 years old
Employed for at least 3 months
Be a permanent resident or valid visa holder of Australia

Can I get a Rent Loan if I have a bad credit score?
Yes, it is possible. Your credit history is exactly that—history. We believe in responsible lending and consider every rent loan application on its individual merit.
Fees and interest rates:
Our Rent Loans can be paid back over 12 months. There are no hidden monthly charges, and no penalties for paying back your loan quicker, so you can pay it back as soon as you are ready. Find out more: Payday Loans Rates and Fees.
- $0 application fee (even if your application is not approved)
- Establishment Fee—$400 (included in the loan)
- PPSR and Security Check—$16 (included in loan)
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. 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 usual interest charges as described.
Can I apply for a Rent Loan with Swoosh if I have an existing loan with another company?
Yes, if you have other loans you can still apply for a loan with Swoosh. As responsible lenders, Swoosh will only approve your application if we believe you can afford to repay your loan.
