Apply with your selected lender

Choose a preferred offer and apply directly with that lender. Final approval remains subject to the lender’s credit and affordability assessment.

Clear from the start

One application.
Three clear stages.

Premier Finance provides access to the free loan search engine. The search engine checks your details against participating lenders.

1

Enter your details once

Enter your employment, income and contact details to see whether you may qualify with any of the 15+ lenders. The initial search uses a soft credit check and does not affect your credit score.

2

Compare available offers

If lenders may be able to assist, the search engine presents available offers so you can compare amounts, costs and repayment terms.

3

Apply with your selected lender

Select the offer that suits your needs and apply directly with that lender. The lender completes its own credit and affordability assessment.

Important: Search results and pre-vetting are not loan approval. A full credit check may be performed when you apply directly with a selected lender. Use the loan search engine →
Know where you stand

The essentials, upfront.

These are the starting requirements for the personal loan search service.

Full-time employment

This service does not currently assist pensioners, self-employed applicants or commission earners.

At least R5 000 monthly income

Your monthly income must meet the minimum requirement before you use the loan search engine.

Not under debt management

The service does not accept applicants under debt review, debt mediation, administration or sequestration.

Documents available

Qualifying applicants need a clear ID copy, their latest three months’ bank statements and their latest payslip.

Meeting the starting criteria does not guarantee approval. The amount, interest rate and repayment terms depend on the selected lender’s complete credit and affordability assessment.
“A useful loan starts with a clear purpose—and a repayment you can realistically afford.”

Premier Finance provides access to a free loan search engine that connects applicants directly with a network of 15+ lenders. Each selected lender remains responsible for its own credit assessment, offer and final approval.

Straight answers

Before you apply.

Understand the criteria, process and documents before sharing your information.

How much can I apply for? +

Applicants can apply for a personal loan from R4 000 to R500 000. The amount offered depends on the lender’s affordability and credit assessment.

Does pre-vetting guarantee that I will receive a loan? +

No. Pre-vetting checks whether you meet the starting criteria. A lender makes the final credit decision and determines any offer.

Who can apply? +

This service is available to full-time employed applicants earning at least R5 000 per month. It does not currently assist pensioners, self-employed applicants or commission earners.

Can I apply while under debt review? +

No. Under the National Credit Act, a consumer whose debt is being restructured through debt review may not apply for or receive further credit. The service also does not accept applicants under debt mediation, administration or sequestration. Please consider credit repair if you want to work towards qualifying in future.

What documents will I need? +

Applicants who meet the criteria for an offer need a clear copy of their ID, their latest three months’ bank statements and their latest payslip.

What interest rate will I receive? +

Interest rates generally range from 20% to 30%. The rate offered to you will depend on your personal financial profile, credit assessment and affordability, and will be set out in the lender’s offer.

Is this a self-help service? +

Yes. Premier Finance does not provide the loan and does not complete the application on your behalf. It provides access to the loan search engine. Applicants must select an offer and deal directly with the chosen lender to complete the lender’s application. This approach limits unnecessary handling of personal and credit information and supports responsible processing under POPIA.

Why does Premier Finance not display an NCR credit-provider number? +

Premier Finance is not the credit provider for loans accessed through this service. It provides access to a search engine that connects applicants directly with participating lenders. The lenders available through the loan search engine are registered with the National Credit Regulator. You can confirm your selected lender’s NCR registration details before accepting an offer.
