Do you need emergency cash?

Alternate Finance in New Zealand offers an array of solutions for clients looking for financial assistance through loan products.

We serve our clients with a customised loaning solution which puts you in control of your finances. When you short of cash and need a little boost, let Alternate Finance get you the cash you need to get back on track.

Unbelievably low rates

We offer our clients fees and rates which will grab your attention from the very beginning. Our impressive fee structure ranges between 13.95% and 26.98% per annum. To apply you only need to follow a few simple steps. Complete the online application form which take just a few minutes of your time. To qualify you would need to be over 18 years old, be a New Zealand resident and have a regular wage going into your banking account.

Do you qualify for a Personal loan?

The next step would be the qualification round, where we do a few credit checks and see if you are able to afford the instalments for the amount of cash you need. Once your application has been approved, we will send you the necessary documentation to sign and your application will be complete. Our terms are usually over a three years period in which you can pay off your low rate personal loan. This also depends on the amount and kind of loan you choose. Should you be choosing a larger amount on your loan, you may need to provide security or a guarantor to sign on your behalf.

From then your loan will be deposited into your bank account, and you will have access to your funds within 24 hours. It’s that easy! Like all short-term loans, you would have to stick to your repayment agreement. Any default in payments could result in a penalty of a 10% charge. However, should you stick to your payments on time each month, there will be no extra unexpected fees charged to you.

Alternate Finance also provides loans for bad credit.

We have the product you need to use for anything you like. With a few clicks, you could have cash in your account within 24 hours of your approved application.

Alternate Finance is exactly that, I needed a loan and could not obtain one from my bank. Alternate Finance had no issue giving me an unsecured loan. I can highly recommend them.
