Secured Personal Loans
Get a lower interest rate by offering your purchase as security.
NOW Finance offers the choice of secured personal loan or unsecured loans. A secured loan means putting up a vehicle, boat or caravan as security. In return, we reduce the interest rate for our secured personal loans by 1% to 2.5% compared to a similar unsecured loan, and offer higher loan amounts for secured loans.
Secured loans can be used to purchase a car, boat, caravan, motorhome, motorbike or for any other worthwhile purpose, like improving your home for example. You can use an eligible asset you already own as security, or, the asset you are purchasing with your loan.
