Cashies Loan repayment calculator

It’s important to review how much a loan will cost and if you can afford to repay it.

Use the calculator to estimate repayments and compare it with your budget.

Personalised rates starting from 19.95% p.a.

We offer three interest rate tiers based on your recent repayments, income stability and overall financial habits:

  • 19.95% p.a. for good credit and strong, recent repayment behaviour.
  • 35% p.a. for OK credit with steady recent patterns.
  • 48% p.a. for credit with some challenges or less stable patterns.

Even if your credit isn’t perfect, you may still qualify for a Cashies Loan. Your credit score is only one part of the story. 

Heads up: the rate we offer you might not match what you select. Your personalised rate will be determined by your actual credit history. 

Understanding the terms above

  • What is an interest rate?

    An interest rate is the cost of borrowing money. It’s usually shown as a percentage of the amount borrowed and is added to the amount you need to repay. Our Cashies Loan interest is charged at a fixed rate of either 19.95%, 35% or 48% per annum on the total outstanding balance. Interest is only charged on what you choose to use, not the full credit limit.

  • What are personalised interest rates?

    Instead of having a ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach to our interest rates, we now offer three different personalised rates. The rate offered to you will be determined by your actual credit history.

  • How is the Cashies Loan interest rate set?

    The fixed interest rate that we offer varies between 19.95%, 35% or 48% per annum, based on the applicant's individual credit rating. An interest rate of 48% p.a. is the maximum rate we can charge under the National Consumer Credit Protection Act (NCCP) and reflects the fact that we are often able to help customers that may otherwise not be able to access a loan from a traditional bank.

  • What is an establishment fee?

    An establishment fee is a one-time, upfront charge from a lender to cover the costs of setting up a new loan. This fee can be a flat rate, a percentage of the loan amount, or a bit of both. It covers administrative tasks like processing the application, credit assessment, and preparing loan documents and is often added to the total loan amount. 

    Our Cashies Loan doesn’t have an establishment fee.

  • What is an early repayment fee?

    An early repayment fee is a penalty charged by a lender when a loan is paid off before the agreed end date. Early repayment fees are meant to compensate the lender for the lost interest they would have earned. 

    Our Cashies Loan doesn’t have any early repayment fees, giving you more flexibility to be in control of your finances.

  • What is a monthly fee?

    Our Cashies Loan doesn’t have any monthly fees, but some lenders might charge one.

    A monthly fee on a loan would usually cover the service and administration costs of maintaining your loan account. It’s not a payment towards the principal balance. 

  • What is a dishonour fee?

    A dishonour fee, also known as a missed repayment fee or default fee, is a charge from a financial institution for a failed payment – most often due to insufficient funds in a bank account.
    At Cash Converters, a dishonour fee of $33 is charged if you are unable to make a payment by the due date, or a direct debit is declined.

    At Cash Converters there is a dishonour fee of $33 you’re unable to make a repayment by the due date or a direct debit is declined.

  • What is a loan repayment cycle?

    A repayment cycle, or repayment frequency, is the schedule for making regular payments on a loan such as monthly, fortnightly, or weekly. 

    At Cash Converters, each repayment includes a portion of the principal (the original loan amount) and the interest, which reduces the total amount owed over time.

  • How is my choice of repayment frequency affecting how much interest I pay?

    Interest is charged daily on the outstanding loan balance but debited monthly. The more often you can repay a loan  the less interest you’ll be charged overall and the sooner you will pay out your loan. 

  • What repayment frequency is best for me?

    Everyone’s financial situation is different. Take a look at your income and how often you’re paid, as well as your weekly and monthly budgets.

  • If I already have a Cashies Loan, can I apply for a lower rate if my credit history is OK or Good?

    As you already have a Cashies Loan, you cannot re-apply until your existing Cashies Loan has been repaid.

Fee Disclosure

Our Cashies Loan does not have an establishment fee or any monthly fees. Fixed interest rate offered varies between 48%, 35% or 19.95% per annum, based on the applicant’s individual credit rating. Interest is charged on the total outstanding balance. The maximum repayment term for each drawing against the loan is 36 months.

For example: A Cashies Loan of $5,000 repaid monthly over 3 years with an interest rate of 35% p.a. would require total repayments of $8,143 ($5,000 principal and $3,143 interest). This example has been calculated on a specified credit limit with the assumption that the loan has been drawn to the maximum amount of credit at the start of the loan and all repayments have been made on time. The calculation shown does not account for potential additional fees and charges, such as default or enforcement charges, which may be incurred.

A dishonour fee of $33 is payable if a repayment is not made by the due date or a direct debit is declined.

Our loans are repayable in weekly, fortnightly or monthly instalments. Loans can be repaid early with no penalty and interest will only be charged on the outstanding balance of the loan. Early repayment will reduce the total interest payable on the loan. The maximum interest rate on our Cashies Loan is 48%. These calculations do not account for potential additional fees and charges, such as default charges, which may be incurred.

All loans are subject to lending criteria and suitability assessment.
