Pros and cons

Pros

  • One rate for everyone. Everyone approved gets 10.74%, so the rate you see is the rate you get.
  • A fixed rate. Your repayments stay the same for the whole loan, which makes it easier to budget.
  • No security needed. Your car or home isn't at risk if things go wrong, though missed repayments still hurt your credit report.
  • Redraw. You can take back extra repayments later if you need the money.
  • No early repayment fee listed. You can pay the loan off early, or refinance, without a penalty. Check the terms to be sure.

Cons

  • A $10 monthly fee. That adds $600 over 5 years, as well as the interest.
  • A $25 late payment fee. Setting up automatic repayments avoids it.
