The important detail

Important terms you should read before you apply.

None of this is buried in fine print. If anything here is unclear, call us and we will talk it through.

Repayment

Loans are repaid in a single instalment collected by debit order on your next payday, within 30 days of payout. Please make sure there are sufficient funds in the account on that date.

Late payment

Late payment charges apply from the date on which we were unable to collect. If you know a payment will be missed, contact us beforehand so we can make an arrangement.

Non-payment

An account in arrears attracts a R50 monthly service fee plus 5% interest on the outstanding balance. After two months the account is handed to external debt collectors, which adds their costs and is reported to the credit bureaus, affecting your credit record.

Renewals

When you renew a loan it is treated as an entirely new loan. The same interest, service fee and initiation fee apply and a fresh affordability assessment is completed.

Credit limit increases

Limits are reviewed when you request a renewal. A clean repayment history helps, but any increase still depends on your income and affordability at that time.

Early settlement

You may settle your loan early at any time. Contact us before your debit order date and we will confirm the settlement amount, so you are not charged for credit you did not use.

Responsible lending. Short-term credit is designed to bridge a gap until payday. It is not a solution for long-term financial difficulty. Every application is subject to a credit bureau enquiry and an affordability assessment in terms of the National Credit Act, and we will decline an application where repayment would leave you worse off.
