FAQs

  • When is it a good idea to get a personal loan?

    A personal loan may be suitable for you if you want to borrow a relatively large amount of money upfront and have a set purchase in mind such as a car, home renovation, holiday, wedding or other large expense. It may also be good for you if you want to pay a set amount of money in repayments each month, knowing that at the end of the initial term the loan will be paid off in full.

  • What is a good personal loan rate?

    You may see unsecured personal loans advertised with a low ‘from’ rate, as in ‘from 8% p.a.’ However, the majority of Australians will be unable to access these low rates because only those with excellent credit ratings are eligible. According to Canstar, the average interest rate for people with good to very good credit ratings is generally between 10% p.a. and 14% p.a.

    Citi's low standard variable Annual Percentage Rate of 8.90% p.a. Comparison rate 9.18% p.a.1 is available to all customers that pass Citi's credit criteria, which generally entails meeting the minimum eligibility criteria, having good credit history, and having sufficient available monthly disposable income to cover monthly living expenses and credit commitments.

  • What is good credit history?

    According to Canstar good credit scores are generally more than 600 across the three credit bureau's in Australia. You can check your credit score and credit history with all three credit bureau. Things that can help you to build up a good credit score include:

    • having a low number of applications for credit
    • a good history of repaying you loans on time
    • not borrowing money from small amount credit providers (often called payday loans)
    • and avoiding any defaults or credit actions from other lenders or utility providers.


    Citi also requires you to have enough additional cash flow to be able to repay any of your existing loans, credit cards, living expenses and other lifestyle expenses, as well as having stable employment and income.

  • Why should I use a personal loan when I can redraw on my mortgage at a much lower rate?

    While a personal loan will often have a higher interest rate than a mortgage, there are some things you need to consider before using your mortgage to pay for items that have a shorter life than your mortgage.
     
    When you redraw on your mortgage, your monthly loan repayments may not actually change. This means that the item you just bought using those funds may end up being paid back over the entire life of your mortgage – which creates a compounding effect on the interest you pay if you do not increase your monthly mortgage payments. 
     
    Consider a case where you are currently ahead of your mortgage payments by $20,000 and have 27 years to go with an interest rate of 3% p.a. If you redraw that $20,000 and don’t make extra repayments, over your remaining mortgage term, you would pay an additional $23,924 in interest.
     
    Compare that against borrowing the same $20,000 over a 5-year term with Citi Personal Loan Plus at a variable interest rate of 8.90% p.a. Comparison rate 9.18% p.a.1 In this instance, you would only pay $4,851.83 in interest, which is a saving of $19,000 compared with using your mortgage to redraw the money.
     
    After a redraw on your mortgage, if you make additional repayments within 5 years, then you will likely save on interest. However, you will need to review your contract as some mortgages restrict how much you can repay in addition to the monthly repayment.

  • How much will my monthly repayments be?

    You can use our personal loan calculator above to estimate your monthly repayments. Any use of the reusable credit facility will require additional monthly repayments on your loan.

  • Can existing customers apply?

    If you already have another Citi unsecured credit product you must hold this account in good working order for 6 months before applying for another lending product such as a Citi Personal Loan Plus.

  • What documents do I need for a loan application?

    Here's a quick checklist of the documents you'll need to apply:

    • Address proof
    • Income proof
    • Proof of employment
