What are loans against cars?
Loans against cars are low-risk lending options secured by fully paid-up vehicles. It’s a quick, easy and convenient way to raise funds over the short-term in Johannesburg and other major South African cities.
At Pawn My Car, we don’t request payslips or bank statements. Also, we don’t check your credit records or transactional history. All that’s required is a vehicle as collateral and a written undertaking that the loan will be paid back within the negotiated repayment period.
How to borrow money against a car in Johannesburg
The online or call-based application process for our loans against cars involves four steps.
- You contact us with all the relevant information about the car.
- We propose the amount of money we’re prepared to lend you.
- The car is brought to one of our Johannesburg branches for a physical examination.

What you need to get a loan against a car in Joburg
The only documents required to support the application are a copy of your ID, proof of residence and the original vehicle registration papers. They must be in the name of the person applying for the loan.
Are vehicle-backed loans low-risk?
Loans against cars are secured by an asset – a car, bakkie, truck, motorbike or boat. If the funds are not paid back, the vehicle is sold to recover the money.
Your personal and business assets can’t be attached. We don’t report defaults to the credit agencies. A loan against a car in Johannesburg is a strictly private agreement between you (the applicant) and Pawn My Car.
