About us

LoanRadar is an independent comparison service for people in South Africa who are looking for a loan. We list short-term lenders, personal loan providers and banks, show the facts we can confirm about them and link to their official websites.

What we do

  • We check each lender’s registration number against the National Credit Regulator register before we link to it with an application button.
  • We show loan amounts, terms and requirements only when the lender or its official partner terms publish them. When we do not have a figure, we say so and send you to the lender’s site.
  • We explain how the National Credit Act 34 of 2005 protects you as a borrower, including the affordability assessment every registered lender must carry out.

What we do not do

LoanRadar is not a credit provider. We do not lend money, make credit decisions, collect loan applications or charge consumers any fee. You apply on the lender’s own website, and the lender decides whether to approve you.
