Finding yourself short of cash when you’re between pay cycles can be incredibly frustrating, especially if the bills keep arriving thick and fast. Savvy can lend a hand if you need payday loan cash to give yourself some breathing space.
Getting a cash loan is as simple as applying from your smartphone or computer. Every step of our process is online, from the moment you apply to the moment you’re approved and paid out. Don’t wait around for your next pay day: apply with Savvy today.
Depending on what you can comfortably afford, you can be instantly approved to borrow between $2,050 and $5,000 with a quick cash loan. Lenders will take into account several factors when considering you for approval, including what you earn and spend. This is known as your borrowing power and allows lenders to assess your current situation when considering you for loan approval. Some of the variables which impact your borrowing capacity include:
Lenders will enable you to factor in a range of income streams, such as investment income, superannuation withdrawals or fixed and ongoing Centrelink payments. These can be declared when you submit your initial application and the only requirement is that they must be consistent, stable and unconditional forms of income.
You should receive your loan funds on the same day you apply in most cases, which is handy if you need cash today. Once you’re offered formal approval and sign and return your loan contract, your lender can release your funds to your nominated bank account. Several factors will determine whether your cash hits your account on the same day, though, including how fast your bank processes payments and the timing of your application.
Transfer and cut-off times vary from bank to bank, but typically payments are quicker during business hours and slower overnight and over the weekend. In some cases, it can take up to three days to receive a payment which is sent from another financial institution.
If you're chasing a very quick cash loan, applying earlier in the day or week will reduce the chance of payment being held up overnight or over a Saturday or Sunday. Because payday lenders aren’t open 24/7 to process applications, starting your application early means there is less risk of approval being delayed.
The cost of your cash advance or loan will come down to how much money you borrow and how long you choose to take to repay it, as it comes with a few fixed fees which are determined by your loan’s size and term.
An establishment fee is charged as a flat fee of $400, which is rolled into your loan repayments. Lenders will take into account these fees when they’re considering you for approval on a loan amount. In terms of monthly fees, they’re capped at 48% of your loan amount over 12 months.
You can take between 16 days and two years to repay your payday loan. Your loan term will impact the value of your repayments and how much you pay in fees. For example, while taking out a $2,500 loan over 12 months instead of 15 would increase your repayments by $41 each month, you’d save $300 overall on monthly fees.

All lenders have a set of eligibility criteria which you’ll need to satisfy before you apply and receive an instant outcome. These include:
Â
You will also need to provide several documents to verify your identity. Lenders will usually request a driver’s licence or passport and a Medicare card.
Yes – bad credit doesn’t tend to matter with short-term cash loans. Lenders prefer to take a complete look at your borrowing history (such as credit card limits, defaults and repayment history) rather than just focus on your bad credit score.
You’ll get the option of weekly, fortnightly or monthly repayment options on your cash loan. This allows you to schedule your repayments around when you’re paid, making it more manageable for you overall.
Yes – you can borrow money to consolidate debt such as overdue bills or other outstanding expenses. Bundling these expenses together can make them easier to manage and repay. However, you can’t use your payday loan funds to repay existing short-term finance directly.
Yes – you can still apply for a payday loan if fixed government benefits make up all of your income. If you want a loan and you’re unemployed, temporary measures such as JobSeeker or Youth Allowance can’t be factored in on their own. However, eligible benefits include:
Lenders generally require loan applicants to be permanent Australian residents, so it’s unlikely you’ll get approved for finance if you’re a student in the country on a temporary visa.
