A few personal loan questions
There is no such thing as a stupid question, but, we want to save you time. Here are some of our most frequently asked questions about personal loans.
Can I still apply if I receive Centrelink?
The short answer is, yes! We assess our loans on affordability and suitability. So, we donât automatically discount you because you are receiving Centrelink benefits. We know it can be hard to find lenders that offer a personal loan when youâre receiving Centrelink benefits. Luckily, Jacaranda Finance is the lender with a difference.Â
We believe receiving government benefits shouldnât necessarily prevent you from accessing personal finance. As a result, we could treat your Centrelink payments as an alternative form of income. Youâll have to receive your Centrelink benefits into a personal bank account, regularly for the past 90 days. So, if you fulfil our other requirements, we highly encourage you to apply for a loan with Jacaranda.
Do you require documents when applying with Jacaranda Finance?
Most of the time, no! At Jacaranda, we utilise the latest and safest banking and identification technology that can obtain a read-only copy of your bank statements online. So, while we do require you to provide us with certain credentials and information, you will not need to submit any physical documentation. Our application is super fast and easy, but if you are missing any documentation we will reach out to you immediately. So, keep an eye on your phone or email after youâve applied.
What happens when I apply outside of business hours?
Lucky for you, our business is 100% online so you can conveniently apply for a personal loan at any time. If you apply during our business hours, you could get an outcome in just 60-minutes. If your application is submitted outside of business hours, weâll get to assessing your application the next business day.
Our business hours are:Â
- Monday to Thursday â 8 am to 5 pm
- Friday â 8 am to 4 pm
- Saturday â 8 am-12 pm
Some parts of our assessing process are automated so make sure you keep an eye on your phone and email to see if weâve made contact.
How quickly will I receive my funds after Iâve been approved?
Once we receive your signed contract, we can transfer the funds to you in as little as 60-seconds**!. The amount of time it takes for the funds to reflect in your personal bank account will depend on the policies of the bank you are with. If you have an NPP-enabled bank account, youâll receive your money in just 60 seconds after youâve signed your contract. Most banks are NPP-enabled, however, if your bank doesnât support this platform, youâll receive your money the next banking day.Â
Do we charge interest, fees or charges?
In the world of financial management, there is a common misconception that small lenders charge eye-watering interest, fees and charges. We donât! Our costs are simple and transparent with no nasty surprises. Moreover, our loan products are affordable. However, the interest rates and charges are subject to that type of loan you have, the loan amount and the loan duration.Try out our personal loan calculator to get an idea of your loan repayments. Just simply choose the amount you want to borrow, the loan duration (how long you want to repay the loan) and if you want to make your repayments, weekly, fortnightly or monthly.Â
For more info on our interest rates and charges, head over to our costs page. Alternatively you can use the loan calculator on the Moneysmart website.
