Compare all loan options from the panel of lenders displayed on our site and select the option that best suits your requirements. When you click on your chosen lender, you will be diverted directly to their website where you will be required to complete their application form. On most occasions you may be able to get a lending decision within minutes without the need for any paperwork. If approved, the lender will contact you directly to make arrangements to have your funds transferred to you. Once you have received your loan you will need to start repayment (as per your loan agreement.)
The amount you qualify for really depends on your criteria. Your circumstances may affect the lender's choice, but each loan ranges from R1,000 - R200,000.
There are no restrictions on what you can use your loan for, however, we encourage you to only take out a loan for the sake of emergencies and essentials.
Once your loan has been approved and you have accepted it, the funds should be in your bank account from as little as a few hours to a few days, depending on the lenders terms.
Should you meet the following criteria, you should be eligible for a loan:
In most cases it is essential that you have a bank account that can accept debit orders, and that our lenders are able to prove your identity and employment.
Applying for more than one loan may put you at risk of not being able to repay your debt and it is for this reason that we advise against this. Lenders will require you to pay off your existing loan before they will be willing to approve another one for you. It is important that you only borrow an amount that you can afford to payback.
Our lenders will assess all applications in a number of ways. This usually includes checking your credit profile with fraud prevention companies or agencies.Our lenders will also assess whether you have the ability to repay your loan before making a decision to approve your application.
It is good practice for all brokers and lenders to disclose the annual percentage rate (APR) when advertising credit products. Short-term loans are usually provided for a period of three to eighteen months,however the APR is calculated and based on a fixed amount of interest that needs to be paid annually.
Terms and conditions may vary depending on the lender, as well as your circumstances. Typically, small loan amounts will require a payment 28 days after you receive the money into your account, while larger amounts could be repaid over a longer period. While it may be possible in some instances to extend a repayment period, we urge you to consider the risks in doing this as a short-term loan is designed to be repaid over a short period.
Payment is taken automatically from your bank account on a pre-agreed date via a debit order arrangement that you will have agreed with the lender. Any late or non-payments towards your loan will incur penalty charges and additional interest.
Some lenders use CPA (continuous payment authority) to retrieve payment. This means that you authorise the lender to withdraw the funds from your bank account. They can also make multiple attempts to withdraw the money if it is not available. If you want to cancel your CPA, you can do this by contacting the lender or by contacting your bank and requesting a cancellation.

If you know that you are likely to experience any financial difficulties or if feel your debt situation is getting worse, we strongly recommend that you do not take out any additional loans.
