In most cases, we will carry out a credit check during the Application process. If we choose to run a credit check, a credit enquiry may appear on your credit file, and this may affect your credit score. However, this doesn’t mean that if you have had problems in the past we’ll automatically reject your Application. We’re more interested in your recent history and your current capacity to repay the loan.

We need to do a few things: we need to verify who you are; we need to do some basic credit enquiries; and we need to check you can afford the loan you’re asking for. During the Application process we will ask to enter the following information:

– Your Driver’s Licence Number or your Medicare Card number.
– A valid mobile phone number that is capable of receiving an SMS.

The encrypted details are then passed to Credit Sense Australia Pty Ltd. They are stored in a highly secure data centre which has a single use, to generate a read-only data-feed which we will use to assess the affordability of the loan.
