You can have several accounts with Finance Now. However, the total amount you can borrow is limited to what we set as your credit limit. This is determined by a number of factors, including your credit score and your re-payment history.
When you need to contact us to update your details, we’ll ask you a few questions as part of our standard ID verification process

You can contact the following Trusted Referees to verify your original documents
- Member of the Police;
- A Justice of the Peace;
- A lawyer, solicitor, or barrister;
- A Notary public;
- A Member of Parliament;
- A Chartered Accountant; or
- A person who has the legal authority to take statutory declarations.
Your chosen Trusted Referee must:
- Be 16 years old or more;
- Not related to you;
- Not be your spouse or partner;
- Not live with you; and
- Not involved in the transaction or business requiring the certification.
The certification needs to:
- Include the trusted referee’s name, signature, and their position or role (which indicates their capacity to act as a trusted referee);
- Include a statement from the trusted referee that the document(s) provided is a true copy of the original, and represents the identity of the named individual.
Document Certification is having a person, called a Trusted Referee, confirm that the documents you provide to us match the original versions and belong to you. It helps us to make sure we’re lending money to you, and not someone pretending to be you.
What do I have to do?
Photocopy your document(s). Take the photocopy and the original document to a Trusted Referee. They will compare the copy to the original, and if the document has your photograph on it, they’ll compare that photograph to you.
If you forget to advise us of any changes to your personal contact details, we can contact your next of kin and advise them we have been trying to contact you.
You can, as long as the certification was done within the last 3 months
