Looking for Loans for Unemployed People?

Nifty Understands!

If you’re unemployed, chances are you’re receiving Centrelink as your income. Even if you’re on top of your spending, a few hefty unexpected expenses could put your budget in jeopardy. Just think how many little things can go wrong in everyday life which would cause a major hassle. What would you do if your car suddenly broke down and you needed to pay for the repair? Or one of the appliances you depend on working, like your fridge or washing machine, gives up the ghost? When you find yourself in an emergency and needs funds fast, who do you turn to?

What are loans for unemployed people?

Well, they’re just what they claim to be: loans for unemployed people. If you’ve applied for a loan with a traditional lender before and been rejected because you’re on Centrelink or have bad credit, you might think that fast cash loans for unemployed people are a pipe dream. However, getting the finance you need while unemployed is possible!

Loans for unemployed people are types of personal loans for those without employment. They can be for amounts between $500 and $5,000. Unsecured loans for unemployed people, from $500 to $2,000, have available repayment periods of between 6 and 9-months. Secured loans for unemployed people of above $2,000 have possible repayment periods of 9 to 24-months. The exact costs of loans for unemployed people are dependant upon the loan amount.

Are there other options I could consider?

Well, there are a few options. You could ask your family or friends for help. However, borrowing money from loved ones can become difficult and lead to strained relationships if there are a few bumps along the way. Depending on the amount, you might not know anyone that you trust with enough cash to spare.

Another possible avenue to pursue is by applying with a traditional lender. However, this can be quite difficult for those who are unemployed and receiving Centrelink. A traditional lender might outright reject your application when they see these details. So, what other option do you have for getting finance? By applying with Nifty Loans, of course!

Although at Nifty we understand that there may not always be other options. So when you need that helping hand, apply with Nifty!

Can I get loans for unemployed people with Nifty?

You sure can! We can offer fast cash loans for unemployed people in the form of loans for people on Centrelink.

In contrast to the traditional lending practices that you might be used to, we take an alternative approach. In the fast-paced world that we live in, time is money. Not only is the prospect of making appointments, waiting in line and filling out paperwork not particularly exciting, but you could also be using that time to do so many other things. At Nifty, we understand how valuable your time is. That’s why we’ve designed our system to be far more streamlined and efficient than what you might expect from a lender.

Life doesn’t always go the way you plan it. Murphy’s Law states that whatever can go wrong will go wrong, and there are some days where that is an undeniable truth. At Nifty Loans, we get it. You don’t take any joy in being faced with a surprise bill that throws your finances a bit out of whack. All you want is to get the funds you need to put yourself back on course. The last thing you want in that situation is to have your application rejected just because your income is made up of Centrelink payments.

If you’ve been searching for a lender that understands, look no further. Apply today from Nifty Loans!

What do I need to apply for loans for unemployed people with Nifty?

Our application is super easy, and we don’t make you jump through hoops. However, there are a few things we need from you before you can apply, and some documents that will help speed up your application even more if you have them on hand.

Eligibility

We want as many Australians as possible to be able to apply with us when they need to. That being said, there are four requirements that you’ll need to meet before you can apply. This information forms the basis of our assessment process.

You must be:

• 18 years of age or over;
• An Australian citizen or permanent resident;
• Have been receiving an income into a personal bank account for at least the past 90 days;
• Have an active mobile number and email address.

Obviously if you’re applying for loans for unemployed people, we don’t expect that your income will be from a job. Whilst we do require you to have been receiving income for the past 90-days, we are happy to accept most Centrelink payments as part or all of that! That extra level of understanding on our part is what allows us to offer fast cash loans for unemployed people. If you’re after Centrelink loans, why not see if a Nifty loan is right for you?

When you hit that Apply Now button, you’ll be taken to our application form. This should take just a few minutes to complete. But, if you want the time spent filling out an application to really fly by, have these details at the ready:

1. Personal contact details, such as your mobile number and email address;
2. Reason for your loan;
3. Internet banking details;
4. MyGov details (for clients receiving Centrelink benefits);

Can I get cash loans for unemployed people if I have bad credit?

Yes, you could also get cash loans for unemployed people with Nifty if you have bad credit.

Like being unemployed, having bad credit is something that traditional lenders tend to look down upon. If they struggle to find a traditional lender that accepts their bad credit, some people might resort to frantically searching online for things like “instant cash loans no credit check unemployed” or “24 7 loans for unemployed”. However, there’s no need to go to these lengths. Just apply with an online lender that understands bad credit, like Nifty Loans!

Part of the reason why we don’t offer “instant cash loans no credit check unemployed” is because we conduct a credit check on every applicant. This might send some people with bad credit running for the hills, but don’t panic just yet. We perform credit checks as part of responsible lending practices. Whilst it makes up part of our assessment process, it’s certainly not the be all and end all.

At Nifty, we tend to focus more on your current relationship with money rather than your credit score alone. Did you know that some negative credit information can stay on your credit history for up to seven years? That means that a blip from your past could be preventing you from getting a loan from a traditional lender now. But never fear, because Nifty is here! We look at the bank statements you supply us with to get a better idea of your ability to afford a loan.

Want to get a loan, but worried about being judged purely by your credit history? Close those tabs of searches for “instant cash loans no credit check unemployed” and “24 7 loans for unemployed” and apply with Nifty Loans today!

How do I repay my Nifty loan?

Repaying a Nifty loan barely requires you to lift a finger. Your main responsibility is just to ensure that you have enough money in your account when your repayment day rolls around. Sound too good to be true? Let us explain.

While sorting out your loan contract, we’ll organise a day for your repayments on either a weekly, fortnightly or monthly basis. This is generally set up in line with your pay cycle. On that day, the allotted repayment will be automatically deducted from your account via direct debit. Once your loan is fully paid off, the direct debit will automatically stop. You are also welcome to pay out your loan early if you wish to – you won’t be charged any extra fees for doing so!

If you find yourself in the unfortunate position where you know that you won’t be able to make a repayment, communication is key. It’s important you let us know as soon as possible of the change in your situation. With enough notice, we may be able to arrange an alternate payment plan that works for all involved. If you don’t notify us and there isn’t enough money in your account for that repayment, the automatic withdrawal could fail and you may be charged extra fees. To avoid this, keep us updated!

Looking for Employment? Need some training first?

One thing we have always found is that our unemployed applicants are usually seeking employment or trying to find a new career path. Given this, we thought we would jot down some ideas to help get you inspired!

So, are you looking to get into the workforce but unsure of what you want to do or where to start? There are many different career paths you can take, even while receiving Centrelink or in a current part-time role. So let’s go over a few examples that you might find useful.

• Depending on your passion and desired profession, there are many businesses that offer internships, traineeships and apprenticeships. Some are paid and covered by the organisation and some by the government. If you have a business in mind that you would like to work for, it never hurts to reach out to them and ask if this is an option.
• Volunteering is a great way to dip your feet into something new and exciting, perhaps branch out into a field you hadn’t thought of. A dog walker today, a vet nurse tomorrow. You can easily do this while still working another job or receiving Centrelink.
• There are TAFE courses and workshops across many industries that take varying amounts of time. For example a Barista workshop can be done between 1-3 days or something in business administration can be up to 12 months. Most courses and workshops can be covered in part or in full by Vet Fee Help, Centrelink, grants or scholarships. You can if need be also ask a friend or family member if they are in a position to help you.
• Maybe you loved your old job but you need a challenge. Talk to your previous managers about more training in your area or even cross training in another department.  Check the company intranet for job opportunities being advertised in house. You won’t know unless you ask.
• There are some job advertisements on websites such as Seek that offer employment opportunities for those who have no or limited experience and on the job training for example. For example, the Defence Force offer employment opportunities and on the job training as well as paid courses for upskilling.
