Need to consolidate your debt?

Consolidating debt could simplify your finances. Having debt doesn't necessarily mean you're bad with money - in fact, most people have debt. Excluding mortgages and credit cards, the average Aussie household has a personal debt of $17,700. Including credit cards, that number jumps to nearly $20,000!

Some of the key advantages of consolidating debt include:

  1. Having one recurring repayment is easier to manage than having multiple repayments
  2. You have a clear schedule of when you can pay down the debt, instead of multiple schedules on different timelines
  3. You could gain better control of your monthly budget and cashflow as you have one simple debt to track

Jacaranda Finance is a fast and flexible online lender that specialises in delivering reliable, convenient, and simple personal loans for debt consolidation.

This is not an offer for credit. The amount you can borrow as well as the offer you receive may vary once you complete an application and all relevant details are captured and verified. Fees, credit criteria and terms and conditions apply. Example tables and calculators are illustrative only and are not intended to be your sole source of information when making a financial decision. Consider whether to get advice from a licensed financial adviser.

THE LOAN PROCESS

How does the application process work?

Decorative graphic of an ID Card

1. Submit your application

This is done 100% online and it’s fast and simple. If you’re fast with your fingers it could take as little as 5-12 minutes1 to complete, but it could take longer depending on a number of factors such as how fast you are at typing or if you have all the required information on hand.

Alternatively, if you like to take things slow, fill in the application at your own pace from anywhere in Australia on any device as long as you have the internet.

2. We’ll do a credit assessment

For most customers, we verify the information you provide us and get back to you with an outcome on your application on the same day2 during normal business hours. If you pass the credit assessment and we can assist you, we’ll send a loan offer for you to review.

We do not guarantee same-day outcomes for all customers: customers that apply outside of business hours or customers that are required to provide additional information may experience a longer timeframe.

3. Review your loan offer

Once you have been approved and have accepted our offer by signing your digital contract, we automatically attempt to release the money to your bank account. Most customers have a New Payments Platform (NPP) bank account and receive the money in their bank account within 60 seconds.3

You must have an NPP-enabled bank account. For customers without an NPP-enabled bank account (or the instant payment fails), the money will be available overnight on weekdays and overnight the following business day if approved on a weekend or public holiday.

How does debt consolidation work?

Generally, debt consolidation is a process where you eliminate multiple debt repayments by bringing all your existing debts together into one loan, offering you greater control of your repayments.

One way to do this is by taking out a new personal loan and using the funds from this loan to pay off your other existing debts. You can then pay back this new loan with a single repayment over a set term, giving you the simplicity of knowing exactly when and how much your repayments will be.

If you're juggling multiple repayments of debts such as these, consolidation can act as a management tool to stay on top of your finances.


Did you know: Approximately 68% of Australians say they have at least one credit card, and around 20% have at least two.


Refinancing or consolidating your current debt may result in higher total charges if the interest rate and fees are higher or the loan term is longer. You should also carefully consider the impact of increasing your debt, monthly obligations, and length of your repayment term.

Most customers have a New Payments Platform (NPP) bank account and receive the money in their bank account within 60 seconds. For other customers, the money will be available overnight on weekdays and overnight the following business day if approved on a weekend or public holiday.
