There are bills they land before your payday arrives. If savings will not stretch,
Loan Owl is a helping hand.
Apply online for $500 to $5,000 and choose weekly, fortnightly, or monthly repayments. We assess today’s affordability from your income, expenses, and recent banking. Before you accept, we show every fee, the total cost, and each repayment date. After approval and signing during business hours, funds are typically available within 1 business day, subject to bank processing.
When Your Payday is Days Away, Loan Owl Swoops In to the Rescue
Upload a mechanic quote or invoice. Borrow only what fixes the fault so you can get back to work.
Utilities or Rent Due This Week
Share your bill or notice and due date. Keeping power and housing secure usually comes first.
Send the invoice or estimate. If Medicare or health cover pays part, include both documents so we can see the gap clearly.
Essential Travel For a Family Emergency
Include flight or transport estimates. Choose a short term and keep repayments comfortable.
Broken Essentials at Home
Hot water system, fridge, or tyres. A small amount can bridge the week without derailing other bills.
What You Can Borrow And How It Works
Small amount loans for short term needs
For immediate gaps tied to your next pay. Borrow what you need and finish fast with a clear end date.
Small personal loans up to $5,000
For larger short term expenses. Repay on a schedule that fits weekly, fortnightly, or monthly.
Repayments that line up with your pay cycle
Pick a date that matches your roster. Direct debit keeps things on track. You can make extra repayments any time.

Who Can Apply And What You Need
Eligibility criteria
You are 18 or over, live in Australia, have regular income, and have a transaction account in your name. Centrelink income can be considered as part of the overall assessment.
Centrelink as part of income and what proof helps
Provide recent benefit statements and bank statements that show consistent deposits. We size the amount to keep repayments realistic.
Credit checks and your file
As part of responsible lending, a credit enquiry may be recorded with a credit reporting body such as Equifax, Experian, or illion.
Costs, Timing, And Early Payout
You see costs before you accept, including any establishment or service fees, the schedule, and the total payable. Funds are typically available within 1 business day after approval and signing, subject to your bank. There is no fee for early payout. Where interest applies, it is recalculated to your payout date.

Payday Loan FAQs
Can you time my first repayment for the day after payday?
Yes. Ask before your next debit. We can place the first repayment right after your regular pay.
What is today’s latest acceptance time to see funds tomorrow?
Mid afternoon is usually safe. Bank cut offs and public holidays can shift timing.
If my employer pays late, can I move the repayment date?
Yes. Contact us as soon as you know. We will move it to match the new date.
Do you accept Centrelink and which documents help?
Yes. Provide recent benefit statements plus bank statements showing consistent deposits.
Will a credit enquiry be recorded and with which bureaus?
Yes. We may use Equifax, Experian, or illion as part of our checks.
Do you offer loans under 16 days?
No. We do not offer loans with a term under 16 days under the National Credit Code.
Can you pay a biller or landlord directly if I upload the invoice?
Funds are paid to your bank account in your name. You then pay the biller or landlord.
Can I repay early if my pay is higher than expected?
Yes. There is no fee for early payout. Paying early reduces the balance and future charges.
What if I already have another short term loan?
We check your current commitments. If another loan makes your budget too tight, we will say so.
Can I apply with just one payslip from a new job?
Yes. A first payslip and a letter of employment can help us confirm your income pattern.
