In Australia, you generally have a range of options on the table when it comes to getting a loan, but what about when unexpected expenses leave you needing cash urgently? Find out more about instant approval cash loans and how they work here.
Can I get instant approval for a loan if I need cash today?
Yes – while getting approval for loans used to be a fairly slow process, it's now possible to get an instant loan with approval in minutes and money transferred on the same day thanks to the rise in popularity of online lenders. This means that if you have sudden unexpected expenses, you can get the extra cash you need to sort them out fast.
If you need an instant approval loan today to get some fast cash, Savvy can help you get approved quickly. Our simple application process takes the work out of comparing options and we can connect you with one of our lenders within moments of you clicking submit.
You can get a quick cash loan for up to $5,000 with instant approval (within 60 seconds), and you can receive the funds the same day. As the entire process happens online, you never need to leave the comfort of your own home, making for a quick, easy and convenient loan process.
What do I need to get instant approval for a quick cash loan today?
There are a few things you’ll need in place to be able to get an instant cash loan.
- Firstly, there are a few basic criteria to be eligible for any loan. You need to be aged 18 and over, and you’ll need to be an Australian citizen or permanent resident. You’ll need to have earned an income for at least 90 days and you’ll need a way for the lender to contact you, namely via an email address or mobile number.
- Secondly, you’ll want to know that you can afford to repay the loan. The amount each loan repayment will cost you depends on how much you borrow (and how quickly you plan to pay it off). So work out what you’re realistically able to repay, and only borrow what you can comfortably afford to pay off.
- Thirdly, you’ll need some supporting documents so the lender can confirm the details of your application. You’ll need 100 points of ID (driver's licence, passport, birth certificate or Medicare card, for example) to confirm your identity and details. You’ll also need payslips and bank statements so the lender can verify your income and financial situation. These are submitted electronically, so you can either scan or take a picture of your documents to send to your lender. You should be able to get bank statements in digital format from your bank’s website.

How do I get instant approval for my cash loan?
Work out what you need and what you can afford
The first thing to do is to sit down and figure out how much you need and what you can afford to repay each fortnight. With a loan application through Savvy, you have flexibility to choose how long your repayment period is, giving you some control over your repayments.
Complete your application
Once you know your needs and resources, you can get started on a Savvy instant loan application. It’s a super easy process that only takes a few minutes, and the moment you click submit you’ll be connected to a lender and receive pre-approval within sixty seconds. But remember – nothing happens till you click go!
Submit your supporting documents promptly
Once you’re pre-approved, you’ll need to submit your supporting documents (ID, payslips and bank statements). Having these ready to go is a great way to streamline the process, as your lender will need to verify them to move forward with the loan. Once you’ve submitted the information, it’ll be processed very quickly – often within an hour.
Read through and sign off your final contract
Once your information has been confirmed, you’ll receive your final loan documents – including your loan contract. It’s always a good idea to read through these and check everything is as you want it. Once you’ve signed off on this (which is also done electronically), the loan is finalised.
Receive the cash you applied for
You'll normally receive the cash on the same business day, meaning you can now use the funds you need and begin repaying them shortly after.
Frequently asked questions about instant approval cash loans
Pretty much – one of the great advantages of an instant payday loan is the flexibility in what you can use it for. Travel expenses, bills, new appliances, household repairs, family holidays – all of them are perfectly good uses for an instant loan. There are a few basic restrictions, such as not borrowing to pay off other personal loan debts, but other than that the cash is available for whatever you need it for.
Small cash loan fees are capped at $400 at setup, and a maximum of 48% of the total per year. These caps are put in place by the Australian Government, so they’re heavily regulated.
With a loan through one of Savvy’s suite of lenders, the choice is actually in your hands as to how quickly you want to pay it back. If money is tight, you might extend the loan out to 24 months to keep repayments low and affordable. Alternatively, you might choose to have everything paid off within three months, which increases your repayments but reduces the amount you’ll pay in fees overall.
In Australia, an instant cash loan can be as little as $2,050. A loan that small can be a fast and easy short-term boost to your finances in a tight spot and because the fees are capped, if you pay the debt off quickly, you may save a significant amount compared to repaying over a longer loan term.
No – credit checks are just part of the process of approving a loan in Australia. In addition to showing your credit score, they’re also used to verify your identity. As such, you’re not going to find a reputable lender that will approve a loan with no credit check. However, it’s important to note that online lenders – like those available through Savvy – are generally very tolerant of bad credit ratings, so they don’t have to stop you from getting a loan.
While payslips are a pretty normal part of a loan application process, that doesn’t mean someone who’s self-employed, seasonal or who earns money through assets are automatically excluded. Payslips are used to confirm that you have enough income to pay off an instant online cash advance loan. Most online lenders are willing to work with alternative sources of income – provided you can show other evidence of that income (such as invoices for freelance work, or records of royalty payments).
Yes – many online lenders (including those Savvy partners with) are able to help someone on Centrelink benefits, as long as your income is enough to reasonably make your repayments.
