What is a 5K loan?
A 5K loan is just a personal loan up to the value of $5,000. A personal loan is an amount of cash that is lent to a borrower based on the agreement that the money will be repaid over a set period of time. There are a variety of different lenders on the market who might offer a 5K loan over 4 years, a 5K loan over 3 years, or even a 5K loan over 5 years.
At Nifty, we offer 5K loans over a repayment period of up to 2 years. You can use the loan calculator at the top of the page to see what the weekly, fortnightly or monthly repayments on your desired loan amount could be.

Frequently Asked
Questions
Can I get a 5K loan with bad credit?
At Nifty, we think you’re more than just a number. That’s why we don’t base our assessment solely on the result of a credit score check. As a part of our commitment to responsible lending we will conduct a credit score check, however, we will also look at other aspects of your current financial situation. Our team will assess your income, spending habits and pre-existing financial commitments to ensure a personal loan is the right financial decision.
We do not want to provide 5K loans to people who can not afford to repay them. So, if you’ve been googling ‘get a 5k loan with bad credit’, ‘how to get a 5k loan with bad credit’ or ‘direct lender for 5K loans with bad credit’ we could help!

Our team might ask you to provide online banking details as a form of identification and as a platform to assess your financial suitability for a 5K loan.

Responsible lending
Nifty Loans is proud to be a responsible lender. Wondering what that means? Responsible lending basically means doing the right thing by the consumer. At Nifty, we do not lend cash to people who we deem unable to repay their loan. Responsible lenders are required to:
Make reasonable inquiries about the consumer’s financial situation, and their requirements and objectives;
Take reasonable steps to verify the consumer’s financial situation;
Make an assessment to determine whether the contract is ‘not unsuitable’ for the consumer.
