Your questions answered.

How do I take out a Spot?

A Spot can only be requested by following these steps:

  1. Join Douugh (if you have not already done so)

    1. See: How do I join Douugh?

  2. Log into the Douugh app.

  3. Tap your Spot Jar

  5. Tap ‘Create Spot’

  6. Tap the edit pencil or use the slider to select how much you want to borrow.

  7. Tap ‘Next’

  8. Review your instalment plan and tap ‘Next’

  9. Enter a name for your Spot (and change the icon if you wish) then tap ‘Next’.

    1. If you don't have a Spot repayment card by this point, you will need to link a Spot repayment card to pay your Spot repayments when they fall due.

  10. Tap to select what bank account will receive your Spot.

    1. If you don't have a bank account connected to Douugh by this point, you will need to connect your account by either linking it via Basiq or tapping 'Link manually' to enter your bank details.

  11. Review your Spot details and once you're comfortable that all is as expected, tap ‘Confirm & Proceed’.

Once done you will get confirmation that your Spot and repayment plan has been created. This will mean the funds have been sent to your selected account.

Can I change my Spot repayment dates?

Unfortunately at the moment, no.

When you take out your Spot, your first payment will be set for 7 days from the date your Spot commenced.

How much can I borrow?

$2000 is the maximum anyone can borrow and you’ll be informed once you’ve signed up how much your borrowing limit is.

The amount offered to you will depend on your individual assessment.

Are there any rewards for paying a Spot back on time or early?

By paying back your Spot on time or early, you could qualify for a bonus 4% Stockback™!
