If you need a Loan, Izwe Loans believes it’s easier than you think. They offer various forms of personal loans ranging from R1,000 to R40,000 with loan repayment terms ranging from 9 to 60 Months.

Let’s have a look at the various personal loans from Izwe Loans and the processes involved.

Personal Loans (broken down into categories below after How it Works)

Izwe Loans offers purpose based personal loans to suit your personalized needs, with affordable monthly payments.

Whether you need funds to build or renovate your dream home, pay for your child’s education or you need to consolidate your current debt  for any unforeseen expenditure. Izwe Loans offers personal loans with terms ranging from 9 months – 60 months (5 years) and from R1 000 to R50 000.

How it Works

What do I need in order to apply for a Personal Loan?

  • Valid SA ID or driver’s licence.
  • Your most recent payslip.
  • 3 months bank statements.

Building Loans

We all have dreams of how our future home will look or have an idea in our head of how our homes can be improved. There is nothing more frustrating than having to wait to be able to afford these dreams.

Whether you have changes you are currently trying to pay off or ideas about what you will do in the future, an Izwe Loans building loan can help you with the finances needed.

Student Loans

Are you stressed about paying off your child’s school fees?  Do you need help paying for your child’s tertiary education or even registration to secure them a different future?

We are all aware that school and tertiary education comes with a high price tag. Education is vital if we want our children to succeed in life. Children need to attend school and a tertiary institution in order to grow into mature and intelligent adults. This places a lot of pressure on ourselves in everyday life to ensure our children’s future education or potential growth.

Izwe Loans’ Student Loans allow you to pay off your child’s education over a period of time that is tailor made to your personal circumstances. This can be done over as little as 9 months or as long as 60 months, depending on your financial situation.

Debt Consolidation Loans

Do you sometimes wish that you could combine all your debt under one roof? Are you tired of having a never ending list of people or companies you owe money to every month?

If you are having difficulty repaying several loans, you should consider a consolidation loan. You may be more familiar with the term “debt consolidation loans”. It allows you to take multiple outstanding debts and consolidate them into a single, more manageable loan. In other words, you will take out one new loan and use that loan to pay off all your other debts.

What does this mean?

A consolidation loan will;

  • Give you the security of a fixed-rate loan;
  • Lower your monthly payments;
  • Help you obtain a lower-interest-rate loan.

General Loan

Want to spoil yourself? Need a gift for someone special or need money for an unforeseen circumstance?

Izwe Loans gives you the freedom to spend your money however you feel fit. Whether you need the money to assist you with an unforeseen life event or even a well-deserved vacation , Izwe Loans grants you the freedom of choice to do what you want with your money.

They offer general loans ranging from R1,000 up to R50,000 and terms ranging from 9 to 60 months.
