A Save My Bacon mini bad credit loan allows you to borrow between $100 and $600 this is an unsecured short-term loan.

The main difference between a mini loan and a payday loan is that a payday loan needs to be paid back by your next payday.

A mini loan allows you a bit more breathing space as you can choose to split the repayment over 3 terms weekly, monthly, or fortnightly depending on your pay frequency.

To help you calculate the cost of your personal loan, we have provided a handy calculator on our website for your convenience. Use the sliders to choose how much you would like to borrow and select your payment frequency. The calculator will do the rest and let you know how much the loan will cost you.

Another fee that you will be responsible for being the establishment fee that is $25. Our contract is transparent and there is no small print or nasty surprises down the loan.
