How it works

From application to payout in three simple steps – without the hassle

Step 1

Fill in the application

Go to the form, choose your loan amount and repayment term, and add your contact details. It takes less than 2 minutes, and applying doesn't commit you to anything.

Good to know: Using Lendova is free, and submitting your request doesn't affect your credit score.

Step 2

Compare offers

Lendova passes your request on to NCR-registered lenders, who send you tailored offers. You can then compare the interest rate, fees, monthly instalment and total cost of credit side by side – and choose the offer with the best terms.

Your advantage: One application gives you access to several offers at once – no need to phone around or apply at each bank separately.

Step 3

Choose and get your money

Found an offer that suits you? Accept it and finalise your application with the lender. The lender completes a credit check and affordability assessment and may ask for documents such as your ID, payslips or bank statements. Once everything is in place, the money is paid into your account – often within 24–48 hours.

Important: Before you sign, the lender must give you a pre-agreement statement and quotation showing the interest rate, all fees and the total cost of credit.

Lendova is not a credit provider. We are an independent loan comparison service and only work with credit providers registered with the National Credit Regulator (NCR). When you apply through Lendova, your request is passed on to one or more lenders, who make their own credit decision. Our service is free – we may receive a commission from our partners when a loan is paid out, which never affects your interest rate or fees.

Representative example: A loan of R30,000 over 36 months at a maximum annual interest rate of 28.25% gives an estimated monthly repayment of R1,364, including the initiation fee and monthly service fee. Total repayment: R49,107. Repayment terms range from 6 to 72 months.
