Features and benefits of a $3,000 loan
Get connected, get a great deal
Small personal loans are designed to be fast, convenient, and everything happens on the web. As long as you’ve got access to a suitable device like a smartphone or tablet and an internet connection, you can apply for a small personal loan securely from anywhere at any time. To start, just tell Savvy who you are and a little bit about your income and how much you need to borrow, then our cutting edge digital systems will instantly match you with the best lender from an extensive panel of our fully licenced credit provider partners.
Simplified cash loan fees
Cash loans come with a setup fee and fixed regular repayment fees throughout the term. Cash loan setup fees never exceed $400, while borrowers will also pay no more than 48% of their loan amount over 12 months in monthly fees.
Apply quickly from any device, 24/7
You can apply for an online payday loan at any time of day or night. Approvals and transfers take place during business hours – so apply early if you need money the same day. Just fill out a quick form and upload supporting documents, such as ID, proof of address and Australian residency, and your payslips. You can grant third-party access to your bank statements via the lender’s website, too – saving you time, effort and leading to a faster outcome.
Convenient cash loan repayments
You can take up to two years to repay, with options as short as 16 days. Borrowers can set their repayments to match how they receive income, with weekly, fortnightly, or monthly options available.
Basic qualification requirements
Anyone who’s over eighteen, a permanent resident of Australia, and able to comfortably repay a cash loan can apply for one. Small loan lenders work to a very defined regulatory model that’s geared more towards affordability and responsible lending than other types of finance where your credit rating is crucial for approvals.
Small personal loans are accessible
That means you can apply for a payday loan with bad credit, and lenders consider applications for small loans on Centrelink – so long as more than half your income doesn’t come via benefits. It also means that borrowers can apply for a $3,000 loan when self-employed, and you can also get a small loan if you’re unemployed.

Just the lender, and it’s read-only access, so they can’t change anything. Most cash loan providers use smart software to assess applications quickly. It’s all 100% secure, and way faster than applying for a loan with a bank, for instance.
No – in fact, if you repay a payday loan on time each month or week, quite the opposite is true. In Australia, we use what’s called a ‘positive credit reporting’ system. What that means is every time you repay borrowing, be it a loan or a credit card, the transaction is recorded on your report. Over time, your credit score gradually improves, so paying back a loan on time will enhance your borrower profile.
All sorts of Australians use small loans to cover a range of different expenses and purchases. You can use a payday loan to pay for pretty much anything. Borrow money for school fees, apply for a small loan to pay veterinary bills, or even use a cash loan for travel.
Yes. Lenders are concerned with affordability, not your age, occupation, or how you receive income. That means, as long as you can afford it, you can apply for a $3,000 loan on age pension and pay the same fees with the same repayment options as any other borrower.
As we’ve learned, unlike mortgages and larger personal loans, your credit score isn’t what makes you eligible for a small loan. Lenders only check your credit report to make sure you don’t already have too many loans and that you’ve not had trouble repaying a similar small loan in the past.
You can! Having no credit history isn’t a problem for online lenders.
Once you’ve submitted your application and it’s been approved (which typically happens within a couple of hours), the lender will send a digital contract which you can sign using your device and return. At that point, the loan provider will arrange for online funds transfer to your nominated bank account – and you’re done.
