Calculate your repayments
Enter a couple of details below to estimate your repayments
This information is provided for illustrative purposes only. It does not constitute a contract. We are not recording and will not use the information quoted by you in this calculator. The results are based on the current offered rate for the loan type selected, which is variable. Certain assumptions have been made when calculating these amounts including that the loan is drawn down today and that the first repayment is made based on the frequency you have selected. If you have selected a monthly repayment frequency and you are using this calculator on the 29th, 30th or 31st of a month which precedes a month which doesn’t have the same number of days, it is assumed your first repayment will be the last day of the following month. Any change in the interest rate, drawdown day, first repayment date, or repayment frequency will change these figures. The total amount repayable and cost of credit are based on the assumption that the interest rate remains unchanged for the duration of the loan term. The APR quoted for personal loans is based on a typical loan with a variable interest rate in line with the loan type selected and is not specific to the loan details you have entered. The APR quoted for hire purchase is based on a typical loan with a fixed interest rate. For hire purchase, a documentation fee of €63.49 will be charged with the first repayment and an additional purchase fee of €12.70 payable with the final repayment. Additional fees may apply for early repayment of a fixed rate agreement or if an account falls into arrears.

How our loans work
We want you to have all the information you need to borrow confidently. Here are a few points to consider.
Understanding our rates
Our first loan interest rates at 8.65% and 8.95% APR (Annual Percentage Rate) are some of the most competitive and consistent on the market, but they are variable. If your rate changes, your repayment amounts stay the same. So, if the rate rises during the loan term, you will have to make extra payments at the end of the term, and if the rate falls, you might pay off your loan sooner.
A representative example for you:
A typical €1,500 one-year loan with a variable interest rate of 8.65% and 8.95% APR (Annual Percentage Rate), where the interest rate and APR does not vary during the term, has 12 monthly instalments of €130.48 and the total cost of credit (the total amount repayable less the amount of the loan) is €65.76.
How to apply
For some of our loans, including this one, applications are by phone or in person only. That’s because we need a little bit more information in order to approve the loan. For example, we may need to see your job contract. Applications over the phone or in person take a few minutes, and we’ll help guide you through the process. Give us a call on 1890 724 724 or use our calculator to see how much you could borrow and ask for a call back.
