Lender panel

Pepper Money through Lyft Money

Pepper Money is a large Australian non-bank lender well known for asset and vehicle finance alongside its mortgage business. It is particularly recognised for tiered credit programmes that consider borrowers who fall outside bank policy — including those with credit impairment, self-employed applicants and newer businesses — with pricing that steps up as the file moves down the tiers.

Lyft Money is an independent broker. Pepper Money is one of 18+ lenders on our panel; we are not Pepper Money and do not speak for them. Product details change — your broker confirms current terms before anything is submitted.

Where Pepper Money is strong

  • Tiered credit programmes that accommodate impaired or non-standard files
  • Strong consumer and commercial vehicle and asset finance offering
  • Established non-bank with broad broker distribution and clear policy

Things to weigh up

  • Pricing rises noticeably in the lower credit tiers
  • Asset age and type limits still apply within each programme
  • Not the cheapest option where a bank would approve the same deal

Pepper's value is predictability outside the mainstream. Where a bank simply declines, a tiered programme tells you where a file lands and what it costs, which lets a client make an informed decision instead of guessing. That is useful for self-employed applicants, newer ABNs and people with a historical blemish on file.

It covers both regulated consumer lending and commercial asset finance, so the same lender can often handle a personal car loan and a business vehicle. We compare the tier offered against the rest of the panel rather than assuming a non-bank is the only option for an imperfect file.
