Award-winning lender
What is a secured loan?
A secured loan is a personal loan that requires collateral. This means that you'll need an asset - usually a vehicle - as security when borrowing money. If for some reason you're unable to repay the loan, the lender can possess the asset and sell it to compensate for its loss.
By adding security to your loan you will generally be considered a less risky borrower, and could be considered for a larger loan amount and more competitive loan terms as a result.

How does the application process work?
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.
What can I use a secured loan for?
Our secured loans are flexible and can be used for many things. Some of the most common reasons our customers take out a secured personal loan include:
Home repairs & maintenance
Sometimes you can't prepare for damages to your house, which can often be very expensive. We offer quick home repair loans as well as loans to cover the cost of maintenance, as well as loans for car repairs.
Travel & holiday Costs
Everyone needs a holiday now and then - they're good for you! If you don't already have the money saved up though, we can give you a loan for a holiday as well.
Home renovations
Whether it's to remodel your kitchen, add an outdoor deck, or install a security system, a home renovation loan from Jacaranda can really help turn your house into a home.
