Compare loan quotesHow to use our loan calculator
Our loan calculator shows you what your repayments might look like to help you work out how much you can afford to borrow. There are two ways you can do this.
Firstly, you can use the ‘I know my monthly budget’ tab if you have an idea of what you want your monthly repayments to be. Then choose how long you want the repayment period to be and at what APR (annual percentage rate). We’ll show you how much you can borrow and how much the interest would be, based on what you’ve told us.
Or, if you have a budget in mind for the amount you’d like to borrow overall, select the second tab. We’ll show you what your payments are likely to be, based on different APRs.
Our loan calculator tool is for illustrative purposes only and aims to give you a rough idea of repayment costs before comparing loan deals.
Ways to compare loans
We get that comparing loans may seem daunting. That’s why we offer different ways for you to see what you might be able to afford, and what loan offers could be right for you.
-
To get an idea of how your loan repayments could look, our loan calculator could be exactly what you’re after. And you don’t have to enter any personal details.
-
Then to find out what loan deals are available to you, you can compare loan quotes through us without affecting your credit score. Enter a few personal details, the amount you’d like to borrow and over how long, and we can show you a list of potential lenders. The quotes offered aren’t a guarantee, since we only run a soft credit check. This that means you can compare quotes as many times as you like without committing and it won’t show on your credit report.
-
If you like the look of one of the loan quotes you’re offered, you can visit that lender’s site to complete your application. This is where you’ll see a guaranteed rate as the lender will run a hard credit check on your credit history. A hard credit check is a detailed look into your financial situation and will show on your credit report. They’ll calculate an exact APR (annual percentage rate) based on your information and give you your repayment figure. The final APR given by the lender may be different to what you saw on our site.
What do I need to apply for a loan?
-
The amount you’d like to borrow
-
The purpose of your loan e.g. holiday, one-off purchase
-
How long you’d like the loan for (the term)
-
Your personal details, such as your annual income and monthly outgoings
-
Your UK address and any previous addresses you’ve lived at over the last 4 years
Depending on the lender, you may have to provide proof of address and of your earnings during the loan application process.
When you’re ready to go through with an application, it’s a good idea to have these to hand to make the process easier.
