According to the annual economic report of the Australian Banking Association, every third small business has no debt and does not access debt facilities, and every fourth has no debt, but does have access to a credit card.
If we exclude credit cards, almost 50% of small businesses have a loan facility. Overdrafts, long-term cash loans, and property mortgages are the most commonly utilised sources of credit (excluding credit cards) with 24% 15%, and 14% of businesses using these respectively. Growth in these loans is increasing at a rate of almost 4 per cent a year.
Aussies are borrowing more than ever before, and as a result, the need to find quality, trusted lenders has increased dramatically. That’s where we come in. Friendly Finance is ready to find everyday Aussies a quality lender when they need it most.
Find Trusted Lenders In Minutes
Lenders can provide fast and easy cash loans for a fixed period of time. Loan recipients repay these easy loans in weekly, fortnightly, or monthly instalments. Before lenders and borrowers sign a contract, the lender should inform the borrower of how long they will be repaying their loans and when they can expect to repay it in full as well as of other considerations.
Friendly Finance works with lenders that offer personal loans when you need it most. We can pair you with a lender, that can provide fast, easy cash loans ranging from $300 to $15,000. In some cases, we’ve been able to secure same-day loan approval, depending on when you apply.

Terms You Need to Know
So, what type of loans do the lenders we find offer? We can help you get:
| ✓ | Short-Term Loans |
| ✓ | Personal Loans Low Interest |
| ✓ | Instant Cash Loans |
| ✓ | Personal Loans Small |
| ✓ | Bank Loans |
Short-Term Loans
The principal amount of these money loans range from $300 to $2,000 and the repayment period could range anywhere from two weeks to two years. Typically, you can make repayments by direct debit from your nominated bank account. The law requires lenders who offer short-term loans to display a warning that they can provide alternative borrowing options because these come with the highest interest compared to any other loan product.
Easy Loans from Trusted Lenders
At Friendly, we’re ready to find you a quality lender that offer the cash you need, without hassle. We can help you get up to $15,000 for personal reasons, such as care costs, child-related costs, training or education for personal needs, and more. If you’re not comfortable listing the reason for applying, just select “other” from the drop-down menu of reasons for needing a loan. The lender we potentially find for you will give you a loan that you can repay over a period of 1 to 5 years. You can choose the term.
Personal loans also accrue interest on the loan amount. This can either be charged at a variable rate (varies throughout the repayment term) or at a fixed rate (stays the same all the time and is charged as a percentage of the principal). Some lenders will charge a combination of both.
Common uses of this loan product include buying a car, paying for a holiday, renovation, or even a wedding.
Secured and Unsecured Personal Loans
Personal loans can be secured or unsecured. Secured loans tend to be larger because an asset is used as collateral. The lender may have the right to seize this asset if the borrower defaults. The interest rate on secured personal loans is lower than that on unsecured because of the lower risk facing the lender.
If you apply for a unsecured personal loan, that means that you typically don’t have to provide an asset (car, boat, etc.) as collateral. Unsecured loans are small loans ranging from $300 to $2,000.

Details on Repaying the Loan
If you are approved and agree to the loan terms, you and the lender should organise a direct debit. This is the easiest way to go about it because payments are automatically deducted from your account on a date specified by you. This setup discourages defaulting, which makes lenders prefer it over other options.
Prior to signing a loan contract, your lender should play an active role in setting up the repayment schedule. Take the time to consider if it’s convenient for you. If it is not, ask that it be adjusted. Ask the lender to send you an email or text message ahead of due payment. If you are struggling with your repayments, please contact your lender directly.
