5.0 Thank you for the great stress free service. It was so easy to apply and receiving the notification "your loan is approved" is by far the most wonderful news to receive on a Friday afternoon. God Bless Team Harmoney Auckland, New Zealand
5.0 Easy and quick service. My loan was approved in just 5 minutes.
Easy to follow instructions.
I compared with other agencies and harmony had the best offer. , New Zealand
5.0 I am very happy with my experience with Harmoney. It is excellent and stress free. I have recommended Harmoney to everyone I know and most of them have Harmoney loans approved. So THANK YOU Harmoney Wellington , New Zealand
5.0 Easy and super fast application. What a great help for our family. I wish they have an annual review of loan rates and give customers a reduced rate for those who who are a a good payer. This will give them confidence and encouragement as they will see it an incentive and feels that Harmoney cares even more. Auckland, New Zealand
5.0 I would 150% recommend Harmoney to anyone needing finances. Super easy to use, great communication and wonderful timing! I absolutely love :) Auckland, New Zealand

 Canterbury , New Zealand
5.0 Harmoney have been great for me, consolidating my debt and now allowing me to top up my loan for important purchases , New Zealand
5.0 This is incredibly modern and user friendly. I am super impressed with the entire concept and how the system is set up. Amazing stuff! Futuristic and helpful. The interest rate in my case was 27% and I hoped for lower interest, perhaps 18%. But nonetheless Harmony has helped me get it my way when all traditional banks and finance companies couldnt care to help me. Now I am in control and can sleep at night knowing I can afford my repayments and live a normal life, start saving again to repay the loan faster and be debt free sooner with no stress. Harmony approved me and the money was in my bank account the same day! All done on my phone in my lunch break. Simply amazing! Felt like a blessed miracle to consolidate my debt so efficiently and so quickly. It's been months of struggle and now I am at peace with my circumstances. THANK YOU HARMONY Auckland, New Zealand
5.0 Absolutely awesome. Applying for the loan is easy to understand and complete and it lets you know by a percentage diagram how far along your loan is processing. Waiting is not long and when the loan is actioned Harmoney always contacts you to make sure that everything is okay with you. Thank you Harmoney. Hastings, New Zealand
5.0 My overall experience with Harmoney was excellent. I would not be able to get this kind of loan from my bank. I remember applying just for an overdraft of $500 and the bank could not even give it to me...how sad. Thanks so much Harmoney. You have made it so easy for us. This is truly a blessing. , New Zealand
5.0 Easy, efficient and intuitive. Getting a loan through Harmoney was super easy and really quick. The whole process took around 48 hours from start to finish and with such an awesome interest rate, there is no way the banks could compete with that. Very impressed. Wellington, New Zealand
5.0 Great service! Special mention to Mere who helped me on the early stage of my loan application. And to the rest of the team at Harmoney for the assistance until my loan got funded. Well done guys! Manawatu, New Zealand
5.0 Great Costumer Service and Great Financial Concept for borrowing/lending finances on right time! Well done Harmoney happy to have you on board on my side! Thank you! Auckland , New Zealand

5.0 Once I decided to consolidate 3 HPs I didn't give my bank a call there would be too much paper work and the interest rate would not be 9.9% that Harmoney would be offering and from my experience with Harmoney the process was easy understand and you were informed throughout the process when applying for the loan, and the time it took to be approved was excellent. Thanks Harmoney , New Zealand
5.0 Excellent service- no forms to fill in when you have been a customer with Harmoney and I have applied for and have approved 2 loans with Harmoney.
Very easy to access all bank details to set up auto payment
This way of getting approved to borrow money is far better than going to a bank or finance office or filling out forms
An excellent way to build a good credit rating for later on
Excellent Service Tauranga, New Zealand
5.0 It's great to be able to find funding online in the comfort of your home. I'm amazed at how fast my application was funded as I completed it very late yesterday afternoon. And now it is 100% funded and it's barely 11am the next day. Thanks everyone for a quick response to my loan application and thanks Harmoney for great service.

5.0 ABSOLUTELY AMAZING...SO EASY, SO FRIENDLY...SO UNDERSTANDING...FANTASTIC SERVICE...AMAZINGLY FAST...Thnx Harmoney BEST Loan Application Process & STAFF EVER NORTHLAND, NEW ZEALAND
5.0 It was a LOT easier than I thought. I was very impressed with HARMONEY'S lateral & logical thinking.
Our bank won't lend to our business, in it's 1st year of operation, even though we have equity. They won't even give a personal overdraft.
Thanks to Harmoney, I am now laughing my way to the bank, where I would have gladly paid more in interest if they had been even remotely interested. Our mainstream bank adversities with the following slogan: "Helping small businesses grow" ~ YEAH RIGHT....... I think that title belongs to HARMONEY.
Thank you Harmoney. When are you starting banking services? Auckland, NEW ZEALAND
5.0 With Graces personal attention and service it has made my processing a lot easier. She is awesome. The speed and accuracy at which Harmoney dealt with my application was unbelievable. Manawatu, New Zealand
5.0 I decided to give applying for a loan online and couldn't believe how quick it was!
I'm very impressed how the money was in my account the very same day. I am ever so grateful because I had been stressing out trying to find a solution and this happened! Thank you Harmoney. Auckland , New Zealand
5.0 Wow! I got a pamphlet in the post about Harmoney.co.nz, and did a bit of research and couldn't find anything bad about them. So I went ahead and tried the online application. 3 days later and everything is wrapped up nice and neat, the money is in our account, I thought the cost and interest were reasonably competitive given the ease and convenience, the direct debit is setup to replay the loan, and I didn't have to move from my lounge. Harmoney, FANTASTIC PROFESSIONAL SERVICE!!! , New Zealand
5.0 Tried my bank first, but proved very difficult to get a loan and it didn't matter wheather you had excellent credit rating. A friend mentioned harmony, so I thought I'd try. What an absolute hassle free application process and you don't need to go there, you can do it all on line. The response time for an answer was swift and getting the funds was way faster. I have recommended harmony to all my friends. , New zealand
5.0 Harmoney are like a best friend, I have been doing reno's on my home for the past 2 years and Harmoney came to the party with Top Lending at fabulous interest rates. I am nearly at the end of home reno's thanks to Harmoney. I have topped up twice on my original Loan and it was done with ease. I highly recommend "Harmoney" with fast efficient Lending and a competitive interest rate. Thank you Harmoney !!! New Zealand,

About boat loans

A boat loan is a personal loan that can be used to cover expenses associated with purchasing, owning and maintaining a boat.

This could include the purchase price, repairs, maintenance, storage, accessories and equipment up to the value of your approved loan limit. There are various types of boat loans and it’s important to understand how they work when deciding which type of loan is right for you.

Unsecured boat loan

An unsecured boat loan is a loan which does not require your boat (or another asset) to be offered as security. This means your boat will not be repossessed if you default on your loan or have trouble making payments. Penalties are still charged for late payment, but this is a safer option than a secured loan.

All Harmoney boat loans are unsecured.

Secured boat loan

In the case of a secured boat loan, security (or collateral) is provided on the loan. This can either be the boat itself or another asset. If you default on a secured boat loan, your collateral can be seized by the loan provider.

Secured boat loans are not provided by Harmoney.

Dealer finance

Boat sellers will often offer their own finance, much like car dealerships. While these may seem attractive, often offering low-interest rates and other perks, they typically require a deposit and, like a secured loan, will keep the boat as security. Dealer finance often works out to be more expensive than third party loans, especially for those with bad credit.

Fixed and variable loans

There are two types of interest rates you can have on your loan: fixed and variable. A fixed interest rate is one that will stay the same despite outside influences, making it easier to budget and plan for the future. Meanwhile, a variable rate will rise and fall with the economy, making it a riskier option.

At Harmoney, our loans always have fixed rates so you can know in advance what your payments will be throughout your loan term.
