Our fee to you: nothing

247 Loans is a free loan-matching service. We do not charge consumers any application fees, subscription fees, or broker fees. Our business model is simple: lenders in our network pay us a commission when they are matched with an applicant. That cost is borne entirely by the lender — never by you.

You will never receive a bill from 247 Loans. If anyone contacts you claiming to be 247 Loans and asks for a fee upfront, please report it to us immediately at info@247loans.co.za.

Interest rates and lender fees

247 Loans does not set interest rates — each accredited lender in our panel sets their own rates, within the limits regulated by the National Credit Act (NCA). The rate you are offered will depend on:

  • The loan amount you apply for
  • Your chosen repayment term (6 to 60 months)
  • Your credit history and credit score
  • The individual lender’s assessment criteria

Typical lender charges include a once-off initiation fee and a monthly service fee, both capped by the NCA. All costs must be disclosed to you in full, in plain language, before you sign any credit agreement.

Representative example

The following example illustrates the total cost of a typical loan through our network. Your actual offer may differ based on your profile and the lender’s criteria.

R10,000 borrowed over 24 months
Interest rate: 27% APR • Monthly service fee: R78.90
Monthly repayment: approx. R616.13 • Total repayable: R14,787.05
(Excluding credit life insurance. Credit life insurance premiums, if applicable, are set by the lender.)

Always compare offers carefully. You are never obligated to accept a lender’s offer. Under the NCA, you have the right to receive a pre-agreement statement and a quotation that is valid for 5 business days.
