Fast & Easy Centrelink Loans

Can I qualify and be eligible for a loan if I receive most of my income from Centrelink Benefits? Many borrowers look for loans on Centrelink when traditional lenders make it harder to qualify.

Yes. If you receive Centrelink benefits, you can always apply for an Advance Payment directly with Services Australia which has nil cost versus a loan that incurs fees or interest costs. However, if you need a loan for $200 to $3,000 over up to 12 months, it can be difficult to Qualify with banks, credit card companies and most lenders in Australia, or it just takes a bunch of time and fussing around.

At Cash Direct, our Centrelink Eligible Loans are for borrowers with some or all of their income sourced from Centrelink, and can be:

Smaller, Express Centrelink Eligible loans of $200 to $2,000,generally paid off over 1 to 12 months; or

Medium, Quick Cash Loans of between $2001 to $3,000+, generally paid off over 12 to 24 months. For these loans you must have income of at least $3,000 per month, and own a vehicle in your name.

Cash Direct provides Centrelink Eligible loans quickly and without the fuss. They can also be known as Pensioner Eligible Loans, Disability Income Eligible Loans, Carer Eligible Loans, JobSeeker Eligible Loans, or just fast cash loans for Centrelink recipients. A Centrelink Eligible Loan is just a loan tool that can be used by people using Centrelink resources. If you do receive Centrelink benefits, you should also check your ability to qualify for a Centrelink Advance Payment or other government Centrelink support before applying for one of our loans.
