Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between a cash loan and a personal loan?
A Personal Loan is often used to help pay for larger purchases like a holiday, while a Cash Loan is typically a small cash boost used to cover urgent expenses.
At Cash Train, our Personal Loans are for borrowing amounts from $2,001 up to $8,000, whereas our Cash Loans are for amounts ranging from $200 to $2,000*.
With Cash Train, we'll give everyone a go, whatever loan you choose.
Can I get a $10,000 loan with bad credit?
No, sorry.
Cash Train only offers personal loan amounts up to $8,000. However, depending on your individual circumstances, you may be able to get a smaller loan up to $2,000 even if you have bad credit.
Can I make weekly loan repayments?
Yes, Cash Train's flexible repayment plans are designed to align with the payment frequency of your regular income and can be set up weekly, fortnightly, or monthly.
How do my loan repayments work?
Direct debit transactions will automatically transfer your loan repayments from your bank account on the agreed repayment dates, so you don’t have to worry about incurring additional fees for late or missed payments. If you think you may have difficulty with your payment plan, contact our friendly team.
Can I repay my loan early?
Yes, early repayment fees are not charged if you finalise your payments before the previously agreed-upon date. For more information, speak to your Cash Train customer service representative.
Can I get a larger loan if I am an existing customer?
As your trust rating improves, you may be able to borrow more money with another loan as long as you can meet your repayments and afford the higher amount.
