Personal loans

When you have something important to buy, and you don't want to wait, a personal loan can make it happen sooner.

Make important things happen sooner.

What's important to you right now? It might be a new car, a holiday, new furniture, a wedding or home renovations. Perhaps you would like to consolidate your bills into one convenient payment.

We can make it happen, with a loan structured to suit your budget.

What you get with our personal loans

  • Once we approve your loan, we aim to credit your funds to your account on the next business day.
  • You can borrow $1,000 to $60,000.
  • Loan terms range from 6 to 60 months.
  • You can make extra repayments or lump-sum repayments when you have spare cash, without any penalties.
