Westpac Services

With a Westpac loan, clients can choose to either pay it off monthly or fortnightly.

If clients pay off a loan before the loan contract agreement expires, the bank will not charge a penalty fee. The advantage of a Westpac short-term loan is that clients can top up the loan amount if their financial needs change.

Best Rate Short-term Loans at Westpac

Westpac understands the issues at play and will always come up with a solution for short-term loan clients.

They will custom a loan to suit every client’s need because they are acutely aware that not everyone can afford similar loans in the market. As a bank that takes pride in its duty as a registered banker and Responsible lender, expert staff will always ensure that clients can comfortably afford to lend a specific amount and pay it off easily.

Easy online loan calculator

Westpac is aware that clients like to know in advance what they qualify for and what the cost of acquiring a loan would be. This means clients are better prepared when applying for any loan so they can make the necessary financial arrangements

The online loan calculator available on the website is an ideal tool that can prepare the client for the costs to be met, should they qualify. The applicant enters the loan amount in the appropriate field then chooses the loan repayment term – of between 6 months and 5 years. Once the interest rate is applied the calculator will assess the cost of the loan including interest.

For example, if a client borrowed NZ$10,000 over 3 years at 13.90% p.a, with a monthly repayment of NZ$345, the total that would be repaid would be NZ$12,409 (including a NZ$100 establishment fee).
