  1. Education loans can be a great option for individuals looking to upskill or change careers. These loans can help cover the costs of course fees, study materials, and living expenses while you pursue your new career goals. With a personal loan, you can borrow up to $10,000 with an education loan, giving you the flexibility to invest in your future. Whether you’re looking to gain new qualifications or switch to a different industry, an education loan can provide the financial support you need to achieve your ambitions.

How much you are eligible to apply for will depend on your current financial circumstances and requirements. As a Responsible Lender we want to make sure your loan is affordable for you, so we will always need to complete your assessment first before we can provide you with the loan amount you’re eligible for. Loans for bad credit are available to cater to diverse financial situations and urgent needs.

Our loans are based on your individual and current financial circumstances. Until we receive your application and your bank statement information, it is not possible for us to guarantee you will be approved.

Our loan repayments vary depending on the loan amount, the loan term and the interest rate. You can use our loan calculator as a guide, however because we tailor our rates to your unique credit profile, we will not be able to confirm any repayments until your assessment is complete.

The interest rates for our loans are calculated using risk-based pricing, which simply means the better your credit rating, the better the interest rate you can be eligible for. We won’t be able to confirm what interest rate you may be eligible for until your assessment is complete, however you can see the range of our interest rates for our personal loans here.

The usual waiting time to receive your loan application outcome is between 24-48 working hours.
