How to Manage Your Cashies Loan
Frequently Asked Questions
Our Cash Advance product will no longer be available from 25 September 2025. From this date, you will not be able to apply for a new Cash Advance.

We’re responsible lenders and we want to make sure our customers are at the heart of everything we do to help find the right cash solution to make life possible.
We'll take a close look at the information and documents you provide us - including details of why you need the cash loan and how much you need to borrow, plus things like 90 days of bank statements, any existing credit card debt, and a careful assessment of your living expenses.
We do all this to ensure your cash loan is suitable, and meets your specific needs and situation to help you get on with your life. If you have any questions about your application and how we assess, talk to one of our personal finance team members
Our Cash Advance Loans incur a 20% establishment fee and a 4% monthly fee, based on the amount borrowed. For example, a small loan of $100 over 4 weeks has fees and charges totalling $24 (1 x $20 + 1 x $4), resulting in a total repayment of $124. Cash Advance Loans are only available in-store with a minimum loan term of 4 weeks. The minimum term is 4 weeks and a maximum of 20 weeks.
Our Small Personal Loans incur a 20% establishment fee and a 4% monthly fee, based on the amount borrowed. For example, a small loan of $1,000 over 9 months has fees and charges totalling $560 (1 x $200 + 9 x $40), resulting in a total repayment of $1,560. The minimum loan term is 2 months and a maximum of 12 months.
Our Medium Personal Loans incur a $400 establishment fee and interest at 48% per annum. For example, a medium loan of $3,000 repaid by monthly payments over 1 year would equate to a total amount payable of $4,348 (including a $400 establishment fee). The minimum loan term is 4 months and a maximum of 24 months.
Our Line of Credit product does not incur an establishment fee and interest is at 48% per annum. For example, a line of credit of $4,000 repaid by monthly payments over 3 years would equate to a total amount payable of $7,616. The maximum repayment term for a credit limit of up to $2,000 is 18 months; and the maximum repayment term for a credit limit over $2,000 is 36 months. This example has been calculated on a specified credit limit with the assumption that the debtor has drawn down the maximum amount of credit as agreed to under a contract.
Our loans are repayable in weekly, fortnightly or monthly instalments. Loans can be settled early with no penalty and fees will only be charged whilst there is an outstanding balance on the loan, hence early settlement will reduce the amount payable on the loan. Loans are subject to assessment criteria and suitability. An APR (Annual Percentage Rate) does not apply to our Cash Advance Loans or Small Personal Loans. The maximum APR on our Medium Personal Loan is 144.02% and the maximum APR on our Line of Credit is 48%. These calculations do not account for potential additional fees and charges, such as default charges, which may be incurred.

You can take out a Pawnbroking loan with us by using a valuable item you own as security. We will hold your item and charge a monthly interest rate on the money you borrow. When you pay off the loan amount and any interest owing, you get your item back. Just like a regular pawnbroking loan, you also have the option to get a pawn loan against your vehicle.
You can loan on most valuable items you own, provided that they’re in full working order. For example, we loan cash for items like jewellery, gold, watches, smartphones, tablets and laptops, musical instruments, sporting goods, power tools and gaming gear. If you’re not sure whether an item you have can be loaned against, contact your local store.
To get a Pawnbroking loan, you’ll need 100 points of ID including primary ID like a passport or drivers license, plus a proof of address document (like a power bill or phone bill) that is less than three months old.
Yes. Your valuable item is used as security for the loan, so a credit check isn’t required. Your credit rating will not be affected if you get a pawn loan, and also won't be affected if you can't/ don't pay back the loan.
Pawnbroking loans can last between one and three months, depending on which state you’re in. Check with your local store for more information.
If you take out a one month loan on the 1st of January, you will owe the amount you borrowed plus one month of interest up until and including the 1st of February. You have until the 1st of February to repay the loan and redeem your item.
If you take out a three month loan on the 1st of January, you will owe the amount you borrowed plus one month of interest up until and including the 1st of February. Then from the 2nd of February up to and including 1st of March, you will owe the amount you borrowed plus two months of interest and from 2nd of March to 1st of April, you will owe the amount you borrowed plus three months of interest. You do not need to wait until the 3 month due date to pay the amount owing and redeem your item, you can do this at any time during the three month period. By redeeming your loan before the due date, you may be able to reduce the amount of interest you are charged.
Yes, you can extend your loan by paying one month's interest. Each time you pay a month’s interest, your loan will extend by an additional month. You can make payments in-store, via My Loans or online (online payments currently not available in NSW). If you can't make a payment by the due date, you can contact the store for assistance.
If you don’t make your monthly interest payments or respond to contact from us, we will keep your item in lieu of loan repayment. You won’t be contacted by debt collectors and your credit rating won’t be affected.
Yes, you can. We’ll work with you to understand any issues that prevented you from paying off your last loan, to assist you in getting your next loaned item back.
You can have more than one active pawnbroking loan, though it’s important to be aware of the total amount you owe and when the payment due dates are.
To find out how much you might get for your item, you can use our What’s It Worth tool to get an online quote, or you can head in-store and chat with our friendly staff.
