What is a personal loan?

A Westpac personal loan can let you borrow money to help you pay for the things you need or want, which is almost anything.

With a personal loan you’ll be charged interest on the amount you borrow over the term of your loan. More information can be found below.

If you want to pay your personal loan off sooner, you can. There are no early payment fees, so you can make repayments above the minimum required, to help you pay your loan off faster and save money on interest.

 

Interest rates.

If you do not pay amounts when they are due and this causes your loan account to exceed your limit, the rate of interest that applies to that overlimit amount will be the interest rate + 5% p.a.

Fees.

Fees are subject to change.

Use our calculator to get an idea of how much you can borrow, what your repayments would be and how long you would need to make them for. For example, if you borrow $10,000 over 3 years at 13.90% p.a.¹; with a monthly repayment of $345, the total amount you’d need to repay would be $12,409.
