Responsible lending does not start and end with using a reputable lender. It is vital that, once you decide to apply for a loan, you take action to use your loan responsibly, too.
Firstly, ensure that you will be able to afford your loan before applying. This is the most vital aspect to consider when considering financial aid; if you cannot expect to be able to make your monthly repayments, your financial situation is likely to deteriorate further. Ask yourself the following questions:
For most people, short-term loans such as payday loans or small, personal loans are used in order to get themselves and their family through a period of financial difficulty, until they can expect to see some revenue again (such as on payday).
When looking at taking out a more substantial loan, it is likely that one is expecting to see the loan itself generate a financial return, such as with a business loan where the loan is used to get an entrepreneurial endeavour off the ground, or as with a home improvement loan which usually results in an increase of the amount of equity in one’s home, generating a profit when it comes to selling the property. Whatever the purpose of the loan, it is important that you are able to forecast your spending habits and repayment abilities for the duration of the repayment period that you choose.
When you do receive your loan amount, be sure to use the money sensibly. If you have taken out your loan to fund something specific like your wedding or the purchase of a vehicle, resist the temptation to use the sum on something else. Stick to the goals you set out when deciding to get the loan. Make sure you also account for unexpected costs when budgeting with your loan amount so that you don’t get caught out when it comes to your financing.

What happens if you cannot repay?
Failing to repay your loan may result in your credit rating being negatively impacted, which could harm your ability to access other financial products in the future. If you take out a loan that is secured against an asset, such as your home or your car, defaulting on your repayment could lead to the repossession of that asset.
Please ensure that you choose a realistic repayment term when applying for a loan with any one of our providers such that you are able to make your monthly payments. If you expect that you will not be able to make a monthly repayment, ensure to let your chosen lender know in advance. Most lenders have sympathetic policies which allow for a grace period of a couple of days if you ensure to notify them of your situation.
