So what is a pre-approval loan offer?
Before you go out and start looking for a new or used car, it is important to know how much money you can afford to spend on your next vehicle. It can be very frustrating and disapointing to fall in love with a vehicle, only to find out later, when looking for a loan that the vehicle is too expensive and that you won't be able to finance the vehicle. Your pre-approval loan offer with Money3, gives you a clear indication of what you can afford to borrow and that all you need to do is find a suitable vehicle, within the loan offer range.
By having a pre-approval loan offer, you'll know which vehicles could be suitable for your budget and then, once you have settled on a vehicle that you'd like to purchase, we can then step in and quickly finance the deal, providing everything about the vehicle checks out1.
As a responsible lender, how much you could borrow with us will be based on how much you can comfortably and affordably repay within the loan term.
To qualify with us, you must:

A Centrelink car loan is offered to customers who get all or most of their income via Centrelink. Many lenders will not be willing to finance a car loan to customers whose income is only via Centrelink. The good news is that Money3 considers all types of income, whether from employment or Centrelink, when assessing your loan application. Your Centrelink car loan could be approved with Money3.
The application process is quick and simple, so the information you need to complete your application should be easily on hand. You'll need to confirm your contact details, address, employment details and regular expenses. Optionally, you can confirm your driving licence, which will help speed up your application. After that, due to responsible lending concerns, we require 90 days bank statements which can be given securely online in a few minutes.
As the car or vehicle you will be buying with your loan from Money3 is used as security for your loan, no other security is required.
If your income is a mix of earnings from employment, plus Centrelink income, then the maxiumum you could borrow could be up to $50,000 depending on your affordability1. If your income is over 50% and up to 100% from Centrelink, then the maximum we could finance would be up to $12,000 for first time customers.
Yes, it is possible for existing customers with 100% Centrelink to borrow more than $12,000, although your repayment history and the loan affordability will be taken into consideration1.
No you won't have to. If you have saved a deposit, great, that can be used together with your loan from Money3, but it is not necessary to have one.
No you don't. However you choose to find your vehicle is up to you. Dealerships and private sales are fine.
Yes, that is also possible. Complete the application as a single applicant and let us know that you'd like to make a joint application. The amount you could borrow with a joint application may be higher1.
Yes, it is1. We will look at your current financial situation and your affordability when reviewing your application for finance. We are specialists in assisting people with irregular financial circumstances and will give you a fair go. See Pensioner Car Loans for more details.
