How to apply for an instant cash loan with Savvy
Fill out our application form
Enter how much money you need and what you need it for and click the ‘Apply Now’ button at the top of the page.
From there, you can tell us more about yourself, such as the nature of your employment and income and your contact details. This helps inform our decision on which lender is the best match for you and will only take a few minutes to submit.
Connect with your lender
We’ll pair you with your lender, from whom you’ll receive an instant outcome. From this point forward, you’re moved to your lender’s online portal, where you’ll complete the remainder of your application.
Submit your documents
Your lender will need to see documentation to verify that the details in your application are true and accurate and that you’re capable of servicing your proposed loan in its entirety.
The documents that you’ll need to supply as part of this step will include
- identification (typically a driver’s licence and/or passport),
- payslips, 90 days of bank statements and
- proof of your address (which can be provided by a recent utility bill).
Await final approval and receive funds
Once your lender has signed off on everything in your application and approved you for financing, they’ll send through an agreement for you to sign.
Ensure that you check over this thoroughly to ensure that there aren’t any details that you’re unaware of. If you’re satisfied with the agreement, you can sign the document electronically and return it to your lender. They’ll advance the funds to you shortly thereafter.
Everything else you’ll need to know about small loans
No – even though this is called an establishment or application fee, you won’t have to pay it upfront. This is broken up and distributed equally amongst your monthly repayments. For example, if you had a $400 establishment fee to be repaid over ten months, you would pay $40 of this fee each month until your loan is fully repaid.
Yes – we partner with flexible lenders who accept instant cash loan applications from people who receive Centrelink benefits. Some of our lenders are willing to work with borrowers whose benefits make up a significant portion of their income, upwards of 50%. Provided you can show that you’re capable of repaying your debt, you can be approved for a small loan on Centrelink. If you receive government payments, you’ll also be required to provide a statement related to this as part of your application, which can be downloaded from MyGov.
Just about anything you like. Cash loans are incredibly flexible in terms of what they can be used for, so you aren’t limited to one specific use as part of your loan agreement. You might wish to take out a small cash loan to pay for car repairs, domestic appliances or simply to buy Christmas presents.
Yes – we work with lenders who accommodate applicants with non-standard financial situations such as self-employment. Because payslips aren’t applicable for sole traders, lenders will request 90 days’ worth of bank statements instead.
If you fall behind in your repayments, you’ll be charged late repayment fees initially, which start from $10, before a receiving a more substantial fee if your loan falls into arrears. This cost will differ between lenders, but if you can ensure that you stay on top of your repayments, these fees won’t pose any risk to you.
Yes – fast cash loans can be repaid at any time without any additional fees. This is a great way for you to save on monthly fees and to get on top of your loan repayments if you become able to pay more each month. You’ll have to pay your establishment fee in full if you pay your loan off early, however.
