Key facts

Four things to understand before consolidating your debt.

One payment

Replace multiple payments, due dates and lenders with a single fixed monthly payment to Micropath Finance.

Fixed rate

The same rate for the full repayment term — no variable-rate surprises from month to month.

Compare total cost

Consolidation saves money only if the new total repayable is less than the sum of your existing debts. Always compare.

Do not re-use cleared cards

Re-accumulating balances on paid-off accounts while repaying the consolidation loan creates more debt, not less.

What a debt consolidation loan does

It pays off multiple existing debts — credit cards, medical bills, store cards, other personal loans — and replaces them with a single loan. You get one monthly payment, one interest rate and one due date. The aim is simplicity and, where the consolidation rate is lower than your existing rates, a reduction in total interest cost.

When consolidation saves you money — and when it does not

Consolidation reduces total interest cost only if the new rate is lower than the weighted average rate across all debts you are consolidating. A lower monthly payment on a longer term can mean more total interest even at a lower rate. To find out whether consolidation works in your favour, compare the total repayable on the consolidation loan against the total you would pay continuing on your current repayment plans.

Fixed rate for the full term

The interest rate is locked at the time of your offer. Your monthly payment stays the same from the first installment to the last — no variable-rate risk, no increases mid-term.

What your offer will show

Before anything is agreed, you see the loan amount, interest rate, APR, any origination fee, every installment date and amount, and the total repayable. Compare the total repayable against the sum of what you currently owe across all debts being consolidated. That comparison tells you whether consolidation is financially beneficial in your situation.

One trap to avoid after consolidation

Once the consolidation loan pays off your existing debts, avoid reloading the credit lines you have cleared. Re-accumulating card balances while also repaying the consolidation loan creates more total debt, not less. Review your monthly budget before you apply to make sure you can sustain the new single payment.

What we review when you apply

We look at your credit history, income, all existing debt obligations and the amount requested. Your credit score is one factor. We assess your full financial profile.

Keep in mind. Consolidation only reduces total cost if the new rate is lower than your average existing rate — and if you do not re-accumulate balances on cleared accounts. Micropath Finance presents the full comparison before you sign.

Common questions

Frequently asked questions

Will a debt consolidation loan definitely save me money?

Only if the consolidation rate is lower than the weighted average of the rates you are currently paying. To check, compare the total repayable on the consolidation loan against the total you would pay continuing on your current schedules. That comparison tells you definitively.

What debts can I consolidate?

Credit cards, medical bills, store cards, other personal loans — any combination of existing debts. The loan pays them off and replaces them with one fixed monthly payment.

Is the rate fixed?

Yes. The rate is locked at the time of your offer. Your monthly payment stays the same for the full term — no variable-rate risk, no mid-term increases.

How does consolidating affect my credit score?

Applying involves a credit check. Paying off multiple accounts can reduce your credit utilisation, which may improve your score over time. A hard inquiry may temporarily lower it.

What is the biggest mistake people make after consolidating?

Re-accumulating balances on the cards or credit lines they just paid off. This creates more total debt, not less. Before applying, review your monthly budget to make sure you can sustain the new single payment without relying on the cleared credit lines.

Does applying affect my credit score?

A soft inquiry at the initial stage does not affect your score. A hard inquiry may be made before final approval. We confirm which applies before you proceed.
