Overview of Wisr personal loans

Unsecured personal loan

If you’re looking to borrow between $5,000 and $64,000 for that new car, boat or kitchen renovation, then a fixed rate, unsecured personal loan from Wisr may be just the ticket. With terms ranging from 3-7 years, this loan doesn’t require you to put up any assets as security. Your repayments can be made weekly, fortnightly or monthly, and you have the option to make extra repayments if you like. Just be careful - there’s no redraw facility to put those extra funds back in your pocket! There’s also a pretty hefty application fee to consider upfront.

Secured car loan 

Got your eye on a set of wheels? The secured car loan from Wisr allows customers to borrow between $5,000 and $79,000 for a vehicle and choose a loan term between 3 and 7 years. With this loan, there is the option to make weekly, fortnightly or monthly repayments as well as the opportunity to make extra repayments towards your debt if you want to. Like with the unsecured loan above, remember there are no redraws allowed on this loan. The good news is there are minimal fees attached to this loan with no ongoing service fees or early repayment penalties - just bear in mind there is an application cost to consider upfront. 

Wisr personal loan features at a glance

  • Extra repayments: Make additional free repayments on your Wisr loan to pay it off quicker and save on interest. And the best news? Unlike many fixed rate loans, there’s no early repayment penalty. Just remember, Wisr doesn't allow customers to make redraws on their extra repayments. 
  • Fees: Although you won’t pay any ongoing fees on your Wisr loan, there is an application fee to budget for. And watch out for the late payment fee!

How to apply

The eligibility criteria for taking out a Wisr personal loan includes you being:

  • at least 18 years of age
  • a permanent Australian resident
  • free of loan or credit card defaults for the past 5 years
  • employed and earning an annual income of at least $30,000

If you tick all those boxes, you’ll then need to supply your personal and financial details - including your contact details, how much you make and your spending commitments (such as other debt repayments or ongoing costs).

Wisr Unsecured Personal Loan

Avoid at all costs.

I have not dealt with a company more horrible, more self centred or just plain rude in my whole life. I would suggest that you stay as far away from them as you possibly can. They don't care about anything or anyone - just profit and lining the pockets of the people that own them. I have been a victim of financial domestic violence, which involved my ex forcing me to take out a loan for him with these people through a broker. And when I got the IVO and contacted them, they basically bullied me and said they don't care - I have to pay the loan even though I got nothing from it. He took the lot! I am a single mother and I live from pay cheque to pay cheque but they don't care.
