Getting started

Calculate your repayments
You can apply if you’re over 18, an Australian citizen or permanent resident, and have a regular income. You’ll also need to have been in your current job for more than 6 months, have no history of bankruptcy (including Part IX agreements), no defaults on loans, credit cards, interest-free finance or store cards in the last 5 years, and an acceptable credit risk profile.
You’ll need to provide your personal details (current and previous address, phone number and email address), along with details of your income, employment, assets (such as your home, car or savings) and debts (mortgages, loans and credit cards). You’ll also need to provide your account transaction listing showing where your income is deposited, via our Bank Statements service.
If you’re self-employed, we may also ask for your last 2 years’ tax returns and financials/profit & loss statements (personal and/or company) to support your income, proof of any rental income (real estate statement or executed lease) and your latest Notice of Assessment.

Common Questions

Vehicle age is based on the compliance date shown on the vehicle’s compliance plate — not the build date. For example, if you’re purchasing in 2026, the vehicle must have a compliance date no earlier than 2021. The compliance plate is usually located on the driver’s side door frame.
The vehicle needs to be able to be legally registered for road use (where applicable) and covered by comprehensive insurance. This generally excludes written-off, unregistered, or non-compliant vehicles.
Yes, you can borrow to purchase a vehicle whether you’re purchasing privately or through a dealership.
Because this is a secured loan, the loan must be paid out in full before or at the time of sale — either from your own funds or from the sale proceeds. Once the loan is fully repaid, we’ll remove our financial interest from the PPSR (Personal Property Securities Register). We can provide a payout figure so you know how much is owing and can pass on the correct payment details to your buyer.
Yes – you can add the cost of a wall charger to the loan if you’re buying an electric vehicle.

Buying an older vehicle?

If you’re buying something older, our unsecured personal loan is a flexible option that could still help get you moving.
