Getting Your Direct Axis Loan
You can get an overview of the rates involved in the amount you plan to loan on their official website. By using their personal loan calculator, you can determine the interest rates for repayment and the amount you need to pay monthly to fulfill the loan obligation. The monthly repayment is automatically computed as you adjust the slider for the amount and the buttons for the repayment period.
A minimum of R5 000 and a maximum of R150 000 can be borrowed through Direct Axis loans online. They offer a longer repayment period compared to other loan providers. You can choose from 2 years to 6 years to repay the borrowed amount, plus interest.
Direct Axis personal loan is an unsecured type of loan, meaning you don’t have to provide any collateral to get approved. All you need to do is comply with their requirements and submit the application form available online.
Expect the money to be deposited in your bank account within 48 hours after the approval of your application.
Approval of your application will be based on your capacity to repay your loan. DirectAxis won’t approve your application if they think it will just plunge you further into debt.
DirectAxis personal loans are covered by a Personal Protection Plan. This plan automatically settles your debt in case you pass away or suffer from a permanent disability. The plan also covers some cases of temporary disability and instances of retrenchment.
Interest & Fees
Since DirectAxis Personal Loan is an unsecured type of loan, expect the following rates to be imposed:
- A minimum initiation fee of R600 and a maximum of R1 197, depending on the loaned amount
- A fixed monthly service fee of R68.40
- Fixed interest rate of 27.75% regardless of repayment period. The rate is based on your financial profile, meaning this can be higher or lower.
These rates are compliant with the National Credit Act of 2005.
