How Paylab Advance Works
-
#1 Download and Sign up on Paylab
Download the Paylab app from the Google Play Store or Apple App Store and sign up within minutes. Once you're in, you'll have to access Paylab Advance and Rewards.
-
#2 Apply for Paylab Advance and Get Approved
Select the Paylab Advance option and start your assessment. Simply link your bank account (where your wages are deposited) and we'll do a quick review. Based on your cash flow, we’ll show you how much you can access.
Disclaimer: a $5 application fee applies which is refundable at the time of repayment. T&Cs Apply -
#3 Verify your Identity
For security, we’ll ask for a few details - your name, date of birth and address (just as they appear on your ID). Upload your Australian passport or driver’s license and we’ll handle the rest with a quick verification.
-
#4 Get your Advance & Repay Easily
Once verified, choose the amount you need (up to your limit), approve the loan agreement and your funds will be sent straight to your bank account - usually within minutes. Repayment is automatic and scheduled for your next payday, so you don’t have to worry about a thing.
