The Comparison Rate is designed to help you understand the overall cost of a loan by taking into account the interest rate, fees and charges, the loan amount, and the loan term. Comparison rates for NOW Finance loans are based on a loan of $30,000 over 5 years. Since NOW Finance charges no fees on Personal Loans, the comparison rate is the same as our interest rate, making it easier to compare our Personal Loan with other lenders.

Yes, you may be able to refinance your NOW Finance Personal Loan to better suit your current financial situation. Refinancing means replacing your existing loan with a new one, which may offer lower interest rates, different repayment terms and access additional funds.

You might consider refinancing if your credit score has improved, your income has increased, or market rates have dropped.

Please note that refinancing involves a new credit assessment and credit check, and eligibility depends on your existing loan balance and our lending criteria. There is a minimum additional lend of $3,000 required to refinance an existing loan. Make sure to review your personal circumstances and the loan terms to ensure refinancing is suitable for you.
