Tassies like to scale, but be careful not to let your repayments rise as high as Cradle Mountain – otherwise it'll be hard to scale back down. Allow us to help keep your finances in check. If you’d rather talk to someone face to face about applying for a personal loan, you can always walk into one of our stores in Hobart.
With three local stores across Tasmania, Moonah and Rosny in Hobart and Kings Meadows in Launceston - we make it possible for you to chat to one of our friendly personal finance staff in person. They can help answer any questions you might have before you apply, so you can make an informed decision on what is right for you.
Our Cash Advances and range of personal loans start from $50 to $5,000* and can be used on a variety of things like vet bills, car repairs, or that unexpected dental bill, with a repayment period of up to 24 months.
Just in 2023 alone, we approved over 264,000 loans to Australian customers with varying financial situations.

That’s why our loans make getting on with life possible in a lot of circumstances. Even if your credit score isn’t as high as you would like, we can still consider your application and assess it based on your current financial circumstances, as we consider a variety of factors when approving a cash loan application.
If you are after a Cash Advance, applications can only be done at participating stores.
If you are considering applying for a Small Loan, Medium Loan or Line of Credit, there are two ways to go about it. You can go through the easy application process available online or you can apply from one of the Hobart stores.

Our Cash Advance Loans incur a 20% establishment fee and a 4% monthly fee, based on the amount borrowed. For example, a small loan of $100 over 4 weeks has fees and charges totalling $24 (1 x $20 + 1 x $4), resulting in a total repayment of $124. Cash Advance Loans are only available in-store with a minimum loan term of 4 weeks. The minimum term is 4 weeks and a maximum of 20 weeks.
Our Small Personal Loans incur a 20% establishment fee and a 4% monthly fee, based on the amount borrowed. For example, a small loan of $1,000 over 9 months has fees and charges totalling $560 (1 x $200 + 9 x $40), resulting in a total repayment of $1,560. The minimum loan term is 2 months and a maximum of 12 months.
Our Medium Personal Loans incur a $400 establishment fee and interest at 48% per annum. For example, a medium loan of $3,000 repaid by monthly payments over 1 year would equate to a total amount payable of $4,348 (including a $400 establishment fee). The minimum loan term is 4 months and a maximum of 24 months.
Our Line of Credit product does not incur an establishment fee and interest is at 48% per annum. For example, a line of credit of $4,000 repaid by monthly payments over 3 years would equate to a total amount payable of $7,616. The maximum repayment term for a credit limit of up to $2,000 is 18 months; and the maximum repayment term for a credit limit over $2,000 is 36 months. This example has been calculated on a specified credit limit with the assumption that the debtor has drawn down the maximum amount of credit as agreed to under a contract.
Our loans are repayable in weekly, fortnightly or monthly instalments. Loans can be settled early with no penalty and fees will only be charged whilst there is an outstanding balance on the loan, hence early settlement will reduce the amount payable on the loan. Loans are subject to assessment criteria and suitability. An APR (Annual Percentage Rate) does not apply to our Cash Advance Loans or Small Personal Loans. The maximum APR on our Medium Personal Loan is 144.02% and the maximum APR on our Line of Credit is 48%. These calculations do not account for potential additional fees and charges, such as default charges, which may be incurred.
