What do you get with a LoanGIANT Personal Loan?

When you take out a loan with LoanGIANT you’ll deal with an authorised Financial Services Provider, with many years of financial services experience in South Africa. We support responsible lending, so if your application is approved, you’ll only be approved for an amount that you can afford comfortably. We’ll do our utmost to give you the best offer that we possibly can.

Because LoanGIANT Personal Loans are unsecured this means that we won’t ask you to use your car, home or any other asset as collateral. To apply for a loan is quick and you can also use your loan for anything you want.

For your security and peace of mind, all our loans are subject to the National Credit Act of 2005. Keep in mind, we consider all loan applications and every application is subject to credit approval.

Your loan will include a Personal Protection Plan, which settles your outstanding balance in the event of your death or permanent disability. This plan also offers some cover for temporary disability and retrenchment – and the level of your cover will be based on your risk profile. You can substitute the Personal Protection Plan with a policy of your choice, provided the cover offered is equivalent.

LoanGIANT administers loans for FirstRand Bank Limited, an authorised Financial Services and Credit Provider, and has been providing loans to South Africans for over 20 years.

Loan repayment terms range from a minimum of 24 to a maximum of 72 months. The maximum interest rate with regards to a LoanGIANT Personal Loan is 27.25% per annum (compounded monthly). Your rate and initiation fee will be determined according to your personal risk profile. An illustrative example of a R50 000 loan at an interest rate of 27.25% per annum plus a once-off initiation fee of R1 207.50 (added to the loan amount in this example) and a monthly admin fee of R69.00, over 72 months would have a total cost of R 116 623.20.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why should I use LoanGIANT to consolidate my accounts?

With over 25 years’ experience in providing leading financial services to South Africans, LoanGIANT is an Authorised Financial Services and Registered Credit Provider (NCRCP20), and a business unit of FirstRand Bank Limited.

LoanGIANT will handle all the admin of settling your lending and credit accounts for you, giving you peace of mind.

 

How will a consolidation loan improve my cash flow?

When consolidating debt, your monthly repayment of the qualifying credit will be lower than you are currently paying. Most South Africans who have consolidated their accounts with LoanGIANT increased their cash flow between R1 000 and R1 500 every month. 

 

When should I consider consolidating debts?

If you’re left with very little cash each month after all your qualifying lending and credit accounts have been paid, consolidating debt can be helpful. It’s a financial tool that’s used by businesses and many financially savvy people to simplify their financial affairs, save on administrative costs and free up cash. It's especially helpful in tough economic times.

 

How will LoanGIANT settle my debts?

We’ll let you know for how much your accounts will be settled and will handle the settlement on your behalf. It's your responsibility and will be in your best interest not to re-open or continue to use these accounts.

 

Does debt consolidation affect my credit score?

Debt consolidation stands to benefit your credit score since you’re less likely to miss the repayment of a single loan instead of many individual accounts. However, debt consolidation is only the first step to improving your financial health. The next step is to improve your credit score rating. A poor credit score will negatively impact your chances of getting financial assistance in the future, making it difficult to rent or buy a home, take out a loan or even secure vehicle finance.

 

To get you started, sign up for CreditKnow. CreditKnow is a FREE and secure financial wellness tool that allows you to check your credit score rating and learn how to improve it.

What other benefits can I expect with debt consolidation?

  • You’ll have the convenience of paying a single, fixed monthly payment; plus, a single service fee, and a credit protection plan.

  • The Personal Protection Plan will settle your outstanding loan balance in the event of your death, permanent disability or certain dread diseases.

  • Your monthly repayment of the qualifying credit will be lower than what you’re currently paying. 

  • You may also have the chance to put further monies you may qualify for to good use.

 

What type of accounts can I consolidate?

LoanGIANT will review your credit profile and determine which accounts are eligible for debt consolidation on a case-by-case basis. Qualifying accounts usually include a range of loans (excluding home loans), credit cards, and retail accounts.

 

What do I need to apply for a debt consolidation loan?
