Helping you access
the essentials in life

No Interest Loan Scheme loans can be used for the purchase of essential goods and services up to $1500. Repayments are set at an affordable amount over 12 to 18 months.
An Intereach staff member will meet with you to explain the process and gather the information required. It is then submitted for assessment. Intereach delivers NILS loans in partnership with Good Shepherd Microfinance.
