Refinance 101: How It Works—And How It Can Help You Right Now

Refinancing lets you restructure an existing vehicle/asset loan (to ease your monthly instalment) or use a paid-up asset to unlock cash,without selling it. Below is a plain-English guide to when it makes sense, how it works, and what to expect.

---

What is refinancing?

• Reduce my instalment: Replace your current loan with a new one (often at a sharper rate and/or a longer term).

• Unlock value from a paid-up asset: Use a fully paid vehicle or selected asset as security and receive a cash-out paid to you.

You keep the asset; you just change the finance behind it.

When it helps

• You want breathing room in your monthly budget.

• You prefer predictable payments (and to keep your savings intact).

• You own a paid-up vehicle/asset and want to access cash without selling.

Compliance note: deals are credit-profile and asset dependent. We’ll confirm eligibility, LTV (loan-to-value) and costs for your exact case. Finance subject to credit approval.

The process (fast & simple)

1. Quick pre-assessment – Share basic details about you and the asset.

2. Pre-approval – We confirm indicative terms (rate/term/estimated instalment).

3. Valuation / documents – We validate asset value and complete KYC/affordability.

4. Final approval & contracts – Sign digitally or in branch (as required).

5. Payout / settlement – We settle your old loan or pay out your cash; you keep the asset.

Docs you’ll likely need: SA ID & driver’s licence, latest payslips, 3 months bank statements (6 for self-employed), proof of address, and basic asset docs (NaTIS/logbook, settlement letter if applicable).

What can I refinance?

• Vehicles: cars, bakkies, vans, selected commercial units.

• Selected assets: (case-dependent) trucks, trailers, yellow metal/plant, some equipment.

We’ll tell you quickly what’s eligible and on what terms.
