We understand the unique needs of Centrelink recipients and can connect you with lenders who offer fair loans tailored to your circumstances.

Navigating the small loan application process with Savvy is an easy and straightforward experience. Here's a step-by-step guide to get you started:
Through Savvy, you have the potential to secure a small loan as a Centrelink customer ranging from $2,050 to $5,000, as long as you meet the required lender eligibility criteria. This adaptable range accommodates diverse financial needs, allowing borrowers to select an amount that matches their particular requirements.
Due to the uniqueness of each applicant's financial situation, the amount you are eligible to borrow may vary based on your individual circumstances. Factors influencing your borrowing capacity include your credit score, income level, existing debts, savings, and other relevant financial considerations. It is essential to note that your income must originate from one or more stable employment sources with consistent pay and work hours and/or from your eligible Centrelink payments.
As noted earlier, your small loan application as a Centrelink customer could be approved, and your funds could potentially be released as early as the same business day (potentially within an hour in some cases). However, this is conditional upon your application meeting all of your lender's requirements and passing their assessments.
The speed at which your application is processed can be impacted by several factors:
No matter the time of day or week, you can complete your small loan application with us online.
You can receive an outcome in 60 seconds and, if successful, have your money sent in just one hour.
We're partnered with reputable Australian lenders to bring you greater peace of mind when applying for your small loan.
Yes – despite having a less-than-stellar credit history and being on Centrelink, you can still consider applying for a fair small loan, assuming you meet your lender's other requirements. While traditional lenders often prioritise credit scores, those offering small cash loans tend to adopt a more lenient approach.
Yes – you have the flexibility to repay your small loan ahead of the scheduled timeframe without facing any early repayment penalties. Early settlement can minimises the total loan cost by reducing the amount paid in monthly fees.
Yes – despite indicating a purpose for your small loan application, you have the flexibility to utilise the funds in various ways, not limited to the stated reason. You may choose to allocate them towards multiple household expenses, for instance. However, it's important to be aware of certain restrictions on their usage, such as paying off other small loans or engaging in gambling activities.
When applying for a small loan, you will encounter two primary costs: an establishment fee (capped at $400) and recurring monthly fees (not exceeding 48% of the loan's total value per year). However, the total amount you pay will also depend on several other factors, such as the loan amount, repayment term, any additional repayments you choose to make, and whether you are charged any late payment or dishonour fees.
