Why should I use a personal loan calculator?

A personal loan calculator helps you understand how much you can borrow and what your repayments will look like over time.

Here’s how a personal loan calculator can help you in different situations:

  • When you're buying a car. If you’re buying a new or used car, you can use a personal loan calculator to see if you should get a secured or unsecured loan (based on the interest rate), and how long you can take the loan out for.
  • If you're looking to renovate. Using a personal loan calculator before taking out a loan for home renovations can help keep your expenses in check by telling you just how much you’ll have to repay over time. This can help you choose between making affordable and not-so-affordable renovations.
  • If you have debt and want to consolidate. Making multiple repayments each month can be a bother, and you might even be paying excessive interest on some of your credit cards or personal loans. By getting a personal loan to consolidate existing debts, you can save in the form of interest, and a personal loan repayment calculator can tell you by just how much.
  • If you need a cash injection for your business. Certain lenders offer loans for businesses, and there are business loan calculators that can help you compare features in such instances as well. Typical business loans, for instance, offer lower interest rates when compared to personal loans for individuals.
  • When you just need a bit extra to see you through. Do you need money to get by existing cash flow problems and aren’t sure which type of personal loan to take up? By using a personal loan calculator, you can compare different types of options, like secured loans, unsecured loans and payday loans. You can then make a decision that best suits your needs.

      Hi Leanne,

      Thanks for reaching out to Finder.

      Though we can’t recommend a specific lender to our users as we are a comparison website, you may like to check our list of $1,000 cash loans. Please review the loan details and the eligibility criteria then contact the lender to discuss your options. When you are ready, you may then click on the “Go to site” button and you will be redirected to the lender’s website where you can proceed with the application or get in touch with their representatives for further inquiries you may have.

      Hope this helps.

      Cheers,
      May

    I have a bad credit rating however I’m employed and earn good money with no debt. My wife is a med student with a perfect credit rating. Could we get a joint unsecure personal loan of say only $5000 with her as primary?

    Is there any way if doing this or including my income?

    Thanks.

      Hi Tim,

      You can apply for a joint personal loan but your credit history will still be taken into account. You generally won’t be eligible for a loan with a traditional bank.

      However, there are some non-traditional lenders that offer joint personal loans (follow the link to find out criteria). You can read our $5,000-loan guide to find personal loan options up to $5,000 for people with bad credit. You can also consider getting your wife to become a guarantor.

      Hope this helps,

      Elizabeth

      Hi Sunny,

      Thanks for your question.

      You can compare personal loans for temporary residents to see application criteria and required documents. You can select the lender and read our review or select ‘Go to Site’ if you are ready to apply. Please ensure to read through the relevant product disclosure statement and terms and conditions to ensure that you got everything covered before you apply for the loan.

      I hope this has helped.

      Thanks,

    I wish to bye a business for $60000, do about 10000 in upgrades and add about $10000 Which will take the turn over each year from $10000
    to $150000 Being a push bike mechanic and it being 2 km from the Yah rail trail I expect more business even I think to A figure of $20000 The second figure should only burn about $20000 where as the first $70000. I’m a pensioner but don’t think I will be for long.I also have $130000 worth of land. I feel I should get a personal loan as there is heaps of security, the business pulls in a good wage each week with out my extras.

      Hi Gregory,

      Thanks for your comment.

      You can take a look at our business loans guide to find out the application process and whether you are eligible. You might want to have a chat with a lender or accountant who might be able to offer you personal advice. Before applying, please ensure that you meet all the eligibility criteria and read through the details of the needed requirements as well as the relevant Product Disclosure Statements/Terms and Conditions when comparing your options before making a decision on whether it is right for you.

      I hope this information will be of use.

      Thanks,

      Hi Mike,

      This depends on the interest rate of the loan and whether there are any fees – you can use the personal loan calculator on the page above to work out your monthly repayments.

      Thanks,

      Elizabeth
