You apply on our website from your phone or computer. Choose how much you'd like to borrow, tell us about yourself - including your address, employment, income and regular outgoings - and securely share your bank statements. We then assess your application, and if you're approved¹ we send your loan contract to sign online. Once it's signed, we pay the funds into your bank account, usually within 30 minutes via NPP.** Repayments then come out automatically, timed to your pay cycle.
You can apply online for any amount from $200 to $8,000.¹ Loans up to $2,000 are small loans repaid over 2 to 12 months. Loans from $2,100 to $8,000 are personal loans repaid over 12 to 20 months. The amount we can approve depends on your income, your expenses and what you can comfortably afford.
In most cases, yes. We can usually give you a decision on the day you apply, and once you're approved¹ and have signed your contract, the money is usually in your account within 30 minutes via NPP.** Applications completed late in the day or outside business hours may be assessed on the next business day.
Yes. We use a secure, bank-grade service that gives us read-only access to your statements for your application. It can't be used to move money or change anything in your account, and your information is handled under our Privacy Policy. Sharing statements this way is also faster than emailing or uploading documents.
No. Everything can be done online, from your application to signing your contract. If you'd rather apply in person, you're welcome to visit any Cash Stop branch instead.
Cash Stop is a direct lender. We assess your application, provide the loan and look after it until it's repaid. Cash Stop Financial Services Pty Ltd holds Australian Credit Licence 389 433, and you can confirm this on ASIC's Professional Register.
It depends on how much you borrow. For small loans up to $2,000, there's no credit check, so applying won't show on your credit file. For personal loans over $2,000, we do a credit check later in the application, and only if your application looks likely to be funded. As part of responsible lending, that enquiry is recorded on your credit file. Lots of loan applications in a short time can count against you with some lenders, so it's best to apply only for the amount you need rather than applying with several lenders at once.
The most common reasons are that the repayments wouldn't be affordable on your current income and expenses, we couldn't verify your details, you're behind on another loan, or your bank statements show other conduct that raises concerns, such as heavy gambling. If you're declined, we'll let you know. Taking some time to reduce your other commitments before applying again can help.
Call our team on 1300 762 261 and we'll help you find another way to provide your statements. You can also visit any Cash Stop branch and apply in person.
We'll email you with our decision. If your application doesn't pass one of our earlier checks, we'll let you know on screen as soon as possible instead. If you're approved¹, you'll get your loan contract to review, showing the amount, every repayment and the total cost. Nothing is final until you've read and signed it.
