Flexible FNB Personal Loans up to R300 000 with personalised low rates, fast approval via the FNB app and repayment options tailored to weddings, renovations and unexpected bills

Why FNB Personal Loan fits South African needs
FNB Personal Loan is a practical option for South Africans who need clear, affordable credit for weddings, renovations or unexpected medical bills. With borrowing up to R300 000 and personalised rates, an FNB Personal Loan adapts to local budgets and life events.
The product is common across cities from Cape Town to Joburg because repayments are fixed and simple to manage, and additional payments do not attract penalties. Many customers appreciate the convenience of having loans linked to their everyday FNB account.
Rates, insurance and repayment flexibility
Interest rates for an FNB Personal Loan are personalised based on your credit profile and can be competitive, with advertised rates from around 12.75% per annum for well-qualified applicants. The loan term can extend up to 60 months, helping to lower monthly instalments when needed.
FNB includes mandatory credit life insurance that covers the outstanding balance in cases of death, disability or retrenchment, and offers handy features like a January credit break if you are up to date. There is no early settlement penalty, which means you can pay off an FNB loan faster and save on interest.
How to apply and what documents you need
Applying for an FNB Personal Loan is straightforward through the FNB app, online banking or at a branch and ATM. The pre-approval check is useful to gauge eligibility without affecting your credit score, making the digital route popular across South Africa.
To apply you must be 18 or older, a resident of South Africa and have salary payments into an FNB account. Typical documents include a South African ID or valid passport, recent proof of income, proof of residence not older than three months and recent bank statements if you bank elsewhere.
Manage repayments and get the most from your loan
Set up automated debit orders to avoid missed payments and protect your credit score. Use the FNB loan calculator before you commit to see total costs including monthly service fees, so repayments sit comfortably within your monthly income.
If you have multiple debts consider consolidating them into a single FNB Personal Loan to simplify payments and possibly lower interest. Keep an eye on statements for any discrepancies and contact FNB customer service promptly if something looks off; clear communication helps resolve issues quickly.
