  • Complete the online application form to receive a quick decision.
  • Customers whose loan has been agreed in principle will receive an email link to assess the agreement. This will include a four-digit pin code that is required for use on returning the form.
  • A Oplo team member will be in contact to run through affordability checks to verify it is a suitable loan for you. If successful, the funds will then be transferred.

Can you repay your loan early?

Will Oplo run a credit check?

Oplo will run an initial soft credit check by carrying out a quotation search which will have no effect on your credit score. If your application is approved in principle and you are happy to accept the offer, a hard credit search will then be conducted. This will leave a record on your credit file and can be viewed by other lenders and associated organisations.
