A personal loan gives you a set amount with a fixed repayment schedule that fits your pay cycle. It suits planned costs and larger one‑off expenses when the budget can comfortably support the repayments. CashPal is a direct lender for $500 to $5,000. You apply online, we assess your financial capabilities under Australian credit law, and you see every cost and repayment date before you accept. For approved applications, the payouts are usually sent the same business day. Please note that your chosen bank controls when the deposit shows in your account.
What is a Personal loan and Who Can It Benefit?
A personal loan is a credit contract with a clear end date and fixed repayments. It can help when you need certainty about timing and amounts. For example: covering essential car repairs, rental bond shortfalls, medical gaps, education costs or consolidating small high‑cost debts where the total cost falls. It may not suit ongoing shortfalls, discretionary shopping or situations where repayments would be tight even after the loan.

CashPal Personal Loan FAQs
What can I use a personal loan for?
Planned costs and larger one‑off expenses such as essential vehicle repairs, rental bond shortfalls, medical gaps, education costs or consolidating small high‑cost debts where it reduces total cost.
What do you look at when assessing affordability?
Regular income, living costs and existing commitments, supported by recent bank statements and payslips. The goal is a schedule you can manage without hardship.
Will a credit enquiry be recorded and who records it?
Yes. An enquiry is recorded with a credit reporting body such as Equifax, Experian or illion.
How quickly are payouts sent after approval and what affects when I see the deposit?
Fund transfers are usually sent the same business day for approved applications. Your bank decides when deposits appear. Public holidays, late evening approvals and first‑time payee holds can add time.
Can I repay early and does it reduce the cost?
