Application and Eligibility

You can apply for a loan if you:
  • Have a valid Proof of ID, Address, and Income
  • Live in the UK
  • Are over the age of 18
You can apply for an additional loan even if you haven’t finished paying back your current one. We’ll review your financial situation before deciding if lending to you again is affordable.

It’s important to think carefully before applying for a new loan. Borrowing more than you need may not be a good idea.

Even if you’ve paid all of your previous loans on time, we may not approve another if it’s not affordable. We assess each application based on your current finances.
If this is your first time applying, you can request an amount between £100 to £300.

If you are a returning customer, you can apply for £100 to £1000.

We can’t guarantee that you’ll receive the amount you applied for. We might offer a lower amount based on our affordability assessment.
We can’t guarantee approval. Even if you’ve had an Able loan before and paid it back, we use your latest income information to assess affordability.

This ensures we only offer loans that are manageable for you to repay.
We understand that being declined for a loan can be frustrating. We carefully assess each application to ensure our lending decisions are based on your personal circumstances.

We have assessed your loan application and determined that the requested amount may not be financially sustainable or aligned with your best interests.

However, circumstances can change, and we’d like to stay in touch. We will assess each new application carefully in the future, though approval is not guaranteed.
Once approved, your loan will typically be sent to your bank or issued in cash the same day. However, there may be delays due to various reasons.

If you experience a delay, check with your Agent for an update on when the money will be issued.
No, applying will not impact your credit score.
