Emergency medical

Need help paying a medical bill?

It doesn’t matter how well we plan. A surprise bill or the need for some extra cash is never far away.

  • Emergency dental
  • MRI or scan
  • Procedure or script

Can I cover it?

Example
You withdraw
$500
Fee (1.99%)
$9.95
From your next pay
$509.95

Covered in full, instantly

Example only. You can withdraw up to 50% of the pay you’ve earned so far.

How it works

A Tuesday morning, sorted by lunch.

Here’s how CashD fits into the week a medical bill turns up.

Example only
  1. A cracked tooth at breakfast.

    The dentist can see you today, and they’ll want paying on the day.

  2. The quote comes in.

    $500 for the consult and treatment. Payday is still three days away.

  3. You withdraw $500.

    It lands in your bank instantly. You pay at the front desk and get on with your day.

  4. Payday, as normal.

    What you withdrew and the fee come out through payroll. The rest of your pay lands as usual. Nothing to repay, nothing to chase.

Why CashD

What a $500 medical bill really costs.

FAQs

Questions people ask before they start.

What can I use CashD for?

Anything you want. Remember, all you’re doing is accessing your earned wages before payday, so it’s your cash to do with as you want.

What do people use CashD for?

All sorts of things: paying bills, reducing more expensive debt, holidays, presents, repairs and home improvements, and sometimes just to treat themselves.

How much does using CashD cost me?

There’s a one-off fee of 1.99%, although some employers choose to cover it for their employees. There are no late fees, hidden fees or interest charges. All fees are clearly shown in the app.

How is CashD different from payday loans and early wage access?

CashD isn’t a loan. There are no credit checks, interest charges or late fees, and there’s no risk of default. You’re simply accessing wages you’ve already earned before payday.

What is earned wage access?

Earned wage access lets employees access a portion of their earned wages on demand, instead of waiting until payday.

How does CashD protect my financial data?

All employer and employee data is encrypted at rest and in transit, and hosted securely on AWS servers in Australia. CashD also undergoes certified penetration testing and complies with AUSTRAC and Australian financial regulations.

How long does it take to get funds transferred?

Transfers are usually instant via PayID/Osko. However, depending on your financial institution, standard bank processing can take up to 2 business days.

There’s no complex eligibility assessment. If your employer uses CashD and you’re earning wages, you’re generally eligible to use the service.

Can I use CashD if I receive government benefits or Centrelink?
