To get a loan with Sunshine Loans, you must be at least 18 years old. Secondly, you must have a regular income of at least $700 a week ($1400 a fortnight) take home pay. This income can be a combination of employment and government benefits. Also, you must be able to comfortably afford the repayments on your current budget. As part of our commitment to responsible lending, we will not lend to those who might be placed in a position of financial hardship as a result of our lending. Check your loan eligibility here.
Unfortunately, if you are unemployed or only receiving government benefits, we are unable to assist you.
Head on over to our loan costs page for a full explanation of our fees. It's really simple though. There is an establishment fee of $400 and interest is charged at an annual rate of 48%.
Our loans generally run for a period of 12 to 20 weeks, but you can pay out at any time.
We provide express funds for almost anything. Need a little extra for a bond payment? Unexpected vehicle repairs take you by surprise? Not to mention when the fridge or washing machine breaks, or a sudden Vet Bill for your favourite pet? Or perhaps you just need that little extra for a car, bike, boat, or holiday? The list goes on - just ask us!
Absolutely, we often provide loans to self-employed people. Self-employed people have rainy days too! Tools break, the computer needs an upgrade, tax time takes you by surprise. No worries
The application process is completely online so you can apply 24/7. Apply here.
The application should only take you less than 5 minutes. Once we have your assessed and approved your application, we will send you a loan offer to sign online. Once you have signed, the money will be in your account in cleared funds within seconds.
Yes. You can payout your loan at any time. We do not have any "payout early fees", in fact you will save some money by paying out early.
You are welcome to apply for another loan as soon as you have paid out a current loan.
Don't worry! As rainy day fund experts, we know that it never rains, but it pours. If you think you might not be able to pay on time, get in touch as soon as possible via Customer Support so we can discuss some options. We need 2 business days notice for rescheduling or adjusting payments.
We do offer Refinancing on a current loan if needed. We would offer you a new loan where a portion would pay out the remainder of your current loan and the balance deposited into your account.
We run on Queensland time, 9:00am to 4:00pm, Monday to Friday. But you can apply online 24/7!
