What you need to apply for Cash Converters personal loan

Find out if you meet the eligibility criteria

To be eligible, you must be:
•    an Australian resident over 18 years old
•    not currently in bankruptcy or a Part 9 Debt Agreement
•    other lending criteria may apply depending on your current situation. 

Gather the necessary documentation

To start, conditional to successful ID verification, all you need is your mobile phone, and your internet banking details. This helps us to verify your identity and that you can afford the loan you’re applying for.

Take your time

It's good to take it slow when you're actively searching for a loan, even more so if it is your first time. Do your research so you can figure out whether the loan suits your individual needs and circumstances as there are many loan options in the market. At Cash Converters, we offer different types of personal loan options:

*Deposit into bank account up to a maximum of $4,600, due to the establishment fee being financed with a $5,000 loan.

What ID will I need to have with me?

An electronic ID check will confirm your ID based on the information provided in your online application. If the electronic ID verification fails, we may request additional documents, like a driver’s licence, to confirm your identity.

What if I am on Centrelink payment benefits?

If you’re applying for a small cash loan while on Centrelink payments, you’ll be asked to provide your MyGov login. This allows us to quickly verify your Centrelink payments.

Our assessing team will make sure that the repayments aren’t more than 10% of your net income.

The loan verification process

We assess every application

Your loan is assessed as we gather some personal details to verify your identification, along with details of your employment, income, and expenditure.

Every application is individually assessed for affordability and suitability. The team will also conduct a credit check which will leave a general finance inquiry on your credit file. However, this is just one of many things that they take into consideration when reviewing your application. 

We gather your information securely

Australian legislation requires we gather the last 90 days of bank statements to assess your application. We do this online by safely and securely collecting the transaction data from your Internet banking.

Our in-house system is compatible with most Australian banks and credit societies, and your Internet banking details are never stored or shared with us.

We get in touch if we need more information

Once you've completed your loan application online, a Cash Converters customer service representative will be in touch if we require any further information.

If you experience any difficulties processing your application online, please give us a call on 13 CASH.

How long does the Cash Converters loan review process take?

How long a Cash Converters loan takes to process depends on if all the information has been submitted with your application. You could complete the online application in just 10 minutes. 

The sooner you provide the information to us, the sooner you will get an outcome for your loan application.

If you have all the information available when you apply, the loan verification process can take as little as 24 hours whether you apply online or in-store.

Once your loan application has been approved, funds could be transferred to your bank within minutes once the loan offer is accepted.
