Our Centrelink Car Loans

Apply for a Centrelink Car Loan.

Our Cash Direct Centrelink Car loans are perfect for when you are ready to start shopping around for your next car. We loan from as little as $2,000, up to $10,000 for a Centrelink car loan. Start with a Pre-Approval so you know how much you can borrow, with loan repayments aligned with your budget. Our Specialist team can help you understand options on the term and payment schedule to meet your budget.

We offer Centrelink Friendly Car loans, providing options for an affordable loan repayment plan to secure your car. We will factor in your income and budget to ensure the loan is suitable and affordable. With the Centrelink Car loan you can set repayments over 1-3 years.

With a Cash Direct Loan Pre-Approval, you can shop for your car with confidence. Haggle a little – get the best car for your budget, Pre-Approved amount. You can buy online, privately or from a dealer. The key is to shop widely and avoid any middleman costs, so you can get the best deal.

Once you have agreed the deal, we’ll need a couple of things to finalise the loan:

  • Details of the seller, as we will typically pay the seller directly

  • The car registration and a photo

  • A link to the cars advertising feature if bought online, or details from the dealer

Once we have all this wrapped up, we’ll fund the required balance for your used car purchase, and activate your new loan.
