Consolidation Loans

What is a Consolidation Loan and how does it work?

The Consolidation Loan is designed to simplify your finances, so instead of several lending and credit accounts to manage you’ll have just one.

When consolidating debt, your qualifying accounts are reduced into one single monthly payment at a fixed interest rate. Your monthly repayment of the settled accounts will be lower than you are currently paying. In fact, most South Africans who have consolidated their accounts with DirectAxis increased their cash flow between R1 000 and R1 500 every month. You may also qualify for further monies.

DirectAxis will handle the admin of settling your accounts for you. Apply online today to see if you qualify.
