      Rates and fees

      Swoosh Finance is all about simple, easy finance. That’s why we’re upfront about our rates and fees. You know what you are dealing with before you make any decisions.

      Interest is calculated daily, based on the outstanding balance, and is applied monthly to your account. Our small bad credit loans have fixed interest rates, so you know exactly how much you’ll be paying for the entire loan term.

      If a scheduled payment is returned unpaid, we may issue a $40.00 debit dishonour fee. This fee is not subject to interest, though you’ll continue to pay the usual interest charges as described.

      Fees:
      • $0 Application fee (even if your application is not approved)
      • $400 Standard Establishment fee

      Repayment optionsWeekly, fortnightly or monthly (based on your paydays)

      Keep in mind that you may incur additional fees each time you miss a payment. As a result, this may also affect the length of your loan.
