Unsecured OD
An overdraft that flexes with your cash flow
An unsecured overdraft gives you a revolving credit limit without pledging collateral - draw funds when you need them and pay interest only on what you use. Betterloanz compares OD facilities across lenders to set you up with the right limit and pricing.

FAQ
Unsecured OD - common questions
With a term loan you receive the full amount and pay EMIs on all of it. With an overdraft you get a limit and pay interest only on the portion you draw - making it more flexible for variable needs.
OD limits are typically reviewed periodically by the lender. We help you understand the renewal terms before you sign up.
Interest applies only to the amount you actually draw and only for the days it stays outstanding - not on the full sanctioned limit. That's what makes an OD efficient for irregular or short-term needs.
Usually no interest, since that's charged on utilisation. Some lenders levy a small annual or renewal fee to keep the facility open - your advisor will confirm this before you commit.
Yes. An overdraft is revolving: as you repay, the limit is restored and available to draw again within the sanctioned period. It works well for cycles that repeat through the year.
Both personal and business overdraft facilities exist. Your advisor will match you to the right product for your purpose.
