If you're approved, all of the loan details, including the repayments, terms, interest rate and fees, will be in the loan contract for you to review before signing.

It's possible to receive a loan offer from us if you have 'bad credit'. We offer fast and reliable personal loans for applicants with varying credit histories. If you're in a good financial position and handling your existing financial commitments comfortably, check if you're eligible and submit an application.

We accept a wider range of credit history than a bank or a prime lender. But we do not recommend submitting an application if you're currently or recently bankrupt (you must be three years discharged and in control of your finances) or if you are not comfortably repaying your existing financial obligations.

No. As a responsible lending body, Jacaranda Finance is required to complete a credit check on all applications. Before you formally apply with Jacaranda, you can check if you qualify for a loan in a way that does not impact your credit score. We do this by performing a 'soft' credit check that is only visible to you.

If you don't meet our initial criteria, your credit score won't be affected.

Once you've checked your eligibility and we've let you know that you do qualify for a loan, you have the option to move forward with a full application.

We will perform a credit assessment during this process, which involves checking your credit report. By submitting a full application, you authorise Jacaranda Finance to obtain a copy of your full credit file, referred to as a 'hard' credit check.

Other lenders will be able to see that you applied for a loan with Jacaranda.

This might impact your credit score.
