Get your instant loan questions answered
An instant loan is a type of personal loan that is smaller than traditional personal loans. These may range from as little as $2,050 up to $5,000. Instant loans have shorter terms than personal loans – a minimum of 16 days up to 24 months. “Instant” means you get the money within the day, if applied and approved during business hours.
In some cases, approved applicants can expect money transferred within the hour. Typical cases have money transferred within 24 hours.
Conditional approval is a machine-generated determination of your credit eligibility prior to a review of your loan application. This can speed up the application process.
No. A payday loan usually requires the borrower to pay back the loan on their next pay period. This is deducted via direct debit or through your paycheque.
The cost of instant loans is calculated via a $400 mandatory establishment fee and a monthly fee of up to 48% per year.
We can set up a direct debit facility, so you never miss a payment. You may choose from as quickly as 16 days up to 24 months. Other methods are also available; ask your consultant for more information.

Your guide to instant loans
Ways to fix your credit history?
Your credit history is the first port of call for many lenders to determine if you’re eligible for credit – be it a mobile phone plan all the way up to a mortgage. However, a credit history captures data on your applications and defaults for up to seven years. Making many applications, such as “quick” payday loans can damage your credit history. You can check your credit history once per year for free using one of the credit reporting companies. This will show you any mistakes, which you must fix. Paying back loans on time and in full is a sure-fire way to help rebuild your credit history.
How do you choose the right personal loan?
Choosing the right personal loan isn’t just a matter of getting the amount you want; you should do your research into different types of personal loans so you aren’t paying unnecessary principal or interest. A long-term personal loan may last up to five years and are used to buy large assets such as cars or renovations. Small instant loans may last from a few weeks to 24 months, and are suitable for urgent purchases – medical bills, car repairs, and so forth. A small loan may be better than a large personal loan, as the short-term nature of the loan matches the short-term expense.
How to better manage your instant loan?
Many of us fret when we have an urgent expense and scramble to get money fast. One of the worst things you can do is put in multiple applications for instant loans. This can hurt your chances of approval. You should also opt for direct debit repayments, so you never miss one. In the meantime, you should look to reduce unnecessary expenses or luxuries to ensure your bank account always has the requisite funds. If you take on an extra shift at work or get a bonus, you should use it to pay more of your loan off – provided there are no additional fees involved.
What to look for in your loan agreement?
Not all loan agreements are boilerplate – they can vary from one lender to another. You should always look for fees and charges. Fees and charges will be present in all kinds of loans. However, some loans may charge additional fees when making additional payments; or even a dishonour fee. You should also look at the repayment schedule carefully; as payments could be deducted before holidays or weekends, which could inconvenience your finances. You should also look at whether repayment insurance is included or not. If you have doubts, ask a friend or a financial professional to look at the agreement to answer any questions.
