Before continuing
A final check that this is the right credit option for you. A Flexi Loan can help with short-term cashflow shortfalls. However, there are instances where it’s worth considering another form of credit:
You need a payment tool to access funds for everyday purchases on an ongoing basis. In this case, view our Credit Cards
You have a longer-term or specific borrowing need, like a car or home renovations. In this case, view our Personal Loans
You want a fixed repayment schedule with a defined loan end-date. In this case, view our Personal Loans
You're doing home renovations that will cost more than $50,000. In this case look at increasing your home loan, or a construction option.
