Credit assessment and responsible lending criteria and inquiries will apply to all applications.
Finalise your loan details
Once you’ve been approved, we will send you an email with a link to finalise your loan details (this typically only takes a couple more minutes). So, you can check you’re happy with the loan amount, repayment frequency, contract term and regular repayment amount.
Sign contract electronically
We’ll send you an electronic contract via email for you to sign. Read it over, and when you're ready just 'click' to sign it and send it back to us.
Get paid
Once we have your signed contract, we'll deposit the funds via direct debit into your bank account. If you're consolidating debts, we'll settle those directly with your existing finance providers. Simple as that.
THORN FINANCE TERMS AND CONDITIONS: Responsible lending criteria, terms and conditions apply. Interest rate 9.95% p.a. - 22.95% p.a. variable, determined by credit risk. Mandatory fees: account fee of $3.25 a month (other payment frequencies available), $75 to be paid up front or capitalised over the contract term. Rates and fees may change. Other non-mandatory fees and charges may also apply. Minimum term 12 months. Maximum term 60 months. Security and vehicle insurance may also be required.
Supplementary terms for debt consolidation loans only: interest rate 0% p.a. fixed for first 6 months (at the end of that period, the applicable interest rate for the remaining term of your loan will be 9.95% p.a. – 22.95% p.a. variable determined by credit risk); repayments are spread evenly across the full term of the agreement so the first 6 months payments are principal only, then principal and interest for the remaining term; no establishment fee.
