What we loan against

Our team will consider loans against most items, especially:

  • gold and silver
  • watches
  • diamonds and gemstones
  • jewellery
  • cars and motorbikes

Here’s a breakdown of how our loans work...

For every month your item is with us, 7.5% of the initial loan value is added to the redemption value. This means that for a £100 loan, £7.50 is added as interest to the initial loan value. Representative APR 110%

Our contracts are based on a seven-month lending period, however you can choose to leave your items in pawn with us by paying the interest owed to extend the contract. 

For example, for an extended duration of seven months, you would pay £7.50 x 7 = £52.50

Our pawnbroking service is regulated by the Consumer Credit Act 1974.
