A Pawnbroking Loan is a short-term loan that is secured against your valuable items of gold, silver, diamond jewellery, luxury watches and other valuable assets. Interest on your loan value accrues on a monthly basis therefore the sooner you repay the full loan the cheaper the total amount payable will be. Our monthly interest rates are checked regularly to ensure they remain competitive and reduce according to the size of your loan. Please visit our stores page for specific store contact details to find out more information and what we can lend on your items.
Pawnbroking can be a great way to get instant cash injections for small businesses and costs towards projects such as home improvements or emergency situations.

Once you no longer need the loan you can repay it back at any time within the 7 month contract period. This process is called redeeming your loan. If you wish to have longer to repay the original loan amount you can simply pay off the interest accrued and renew your loan for a further 7 months. We always wish for you to collect your goods and most of our pledge loans are collected. If you cannot pay it all at once then you can repay some of loan off and this will reduce your interest payments ongoing. We always encourage our customers to make repayments where possible and will always help in every way we can to enable you to collect your goods.
Sometimes your financial circumstances can vary and you may not be able to make repayment or may not wish to collect your goods. In this case we will sell the items after the contract expires after contacting you to ensure you no longer wish to or are unable to collect your goods. This is called forfeiting your pledge and it means we are entitled to sell the items to recover the cost of the loan, any interest accrued until the item is sold. You will not be liable for any further costs and the sale of the item will always cover the cost of the outstanding amount owed. Even if the item sells for less, the debt is cancelled and you will not be responsible for any further costs. Should the item sell for an amount greater than the cost of the loan, the accumulated interest and any administration charges then the excess profit is called a ‘surplus’ and you will be contacted after the item sell if this is the case to recoup this amount.
Remember it is the pawnbrokers responsibility to lend the correct amount in the first instance and if you chose to forfeit your loan then the debt is automatically paid off with no penalty to yourself.
