Following the successful launch of our No Fee Personal Loan – for loans from $5,000 to $15,000 – NOW Finance is expanding this feature to all new personal loans, both secured and unsecured, from November 9th 2020. We’ll be the first lender in Australia to offer no fees on all new personal loans for all customers as a permanent product feature!
Customers with an excellent credit score who are eligible for our lowest interest rates could get:
- An unsecured loan of up to $40,000, at a comparison rate of 6.95%*
- A secured loan of up to $50,000, at a comparison rate of 5.95%*
How can you benefit from a NOW Finance no fee loan?
Benefit 1: Get those things you want NOW, at a cheaper rate
Why spend your savings or risk falling into a revolving debt cycle by putting big purchases on a credit card, when you can get a personal loan with no fees?
With a fixed-rate loan and no fees to pay (excluding late payment charges), you’ll always know where you are with your outgoings and know the date your loan will be fully repaid, too. It all adds up to better value and no nasty surprises.
Benefit 2: One of the lowest comparison rates available
If you’re eligible for our lowest interest rates, you’ll be getting one of the lowest comparison rates anywhere in Australia.
The removal of our fees could make a significant difference in this respect. Another lender may offer you a lower interest rate than NOW Finance. However, once fees are added to generate the comparison rate, we may still work out cheaper.
Benefit 3: Higher borrowing power, same affordability
When helping customers find a personal loan to suit their needs, one of our biggest questions is what can they afford?
Having no fees attached to a personal loan means you could borrow more but keep your repayments the same!
How would that work?
Let’s say the fees on your loan would ordinarily total $1,000. As you’re no longer paying them, you could borrow the extra $1,000 instead, meaning you could buy something even better!
Benefit 4: Consolidate and refinance existing debts
Debt consolidation and refinancing an existing loan is a fantastic way to potentially save you money through a lower interest rate and savings on fees, as well as change your loan term and repayment schedule to better suit your circumstances.
How do I apply for a NOW Finance no fee loan?
From November 9th 2020, no fees will apply to all NOW Finance loans as standard (excluding late payment charges). You don’t need to do anything differently; simply get your rate and enjoy one of the most competitive comparison rates around!

*About Comparison Rates
The Comparison Rate is designed to help you understand the overall cost of the personal loan. It combines the amount of the loan, loan term, repayment frequency, interest rate, fees and charges into a single rate to show the total true cost of the loan. The comparison rates for the NOW Finance loans are based on a loan of $30,000 over 5 years. WARNING: The comparison rates given are true only for the examples given and may not include all fees and charges. Different terms, fees or other loan amounts might result in a different comparison rate.
