Why choose Calp for your travel loan

Four reasons to fund your trip with Calp

Funding a trip on credit must remain a reasoned choice. Calp offers a short, capped, fixed-rate travel loan with one priority: repay before the next trip. No long commitment, no after-return surprises.

Term capped at 48 months

Calp travel loan is capped at 48 months term and EUR 20,000 amount. This limit is intentional: a trip should not be repaid longer than a reasonable life cycle, or you risk accumulating successive travel loans.

Seasonal payment adjustment

Monthly payment adjustable up during your high earnings season (bonus, 13th month, freelance) and down during quieter periods. Modulation possible twice a year within 30%.

Cancellation insurance available

Travel and cancellation insurance available as option, included in the monthly payment. Covers cancellation for medical reason or major unforeseen, and triggers a deferment or penalty-free early repayment.

No contractual allocation

Although presented as a travel loan, it is an unrestricted personal loan: you use funds freely without booking proof or invoice. This leaves you full freedom to book your trip yourself, step by step, without provider constraint.

Frequently asked questions

Your questions, our answers.

01

Do I need to provide a travel agency quote?

No. No proof of purpose is required. You organise the trip freely.

02

Does the loan cover travel insurance?

Yes, ancillary expenses (cancellation insurance, equipment) can be financed within the same envelope.

03

Can I repay before departure?

Yes, full or partial early repayment is available at any time, with no penalty up to €10,000 / year.

04

Which kind of trip is it for?

Any trip: holidays, honeymoon, world tour, long stay. No destination restriction.

05

Is a travel loan a good financial idea?

It depends on the amount and term. For a EUR 4,000 trip repaid in 24 months at Calp fixed APR, total interest cost is around EUR 250, or 6% of the trip. Calp considers this cost reasonable for an important occasional event. Conversely, funding a trip on credit over 48 months when another is planned in 12 months leads to over-indebtedness.

06

Must I provide a travel booking to subscribe?

No. The Calp travel loan is an unrestricted personal loan: no booking, no invoice, no proof of use of funds is required. You are free to book your trip yourself, step by step, or to change your plans after disbursement.

07

Can I include travel and cancellation insurance?

Yes, as an option. Calp offers travel and cancellation insurance integrated into the monthly payment, covering cancellation for medical reason, interruption for major cause (relative's death, home disaster) and medical repatriation. In case of full cancellation, the insurance triggers penalty-free early repayment of the loan.

A planned departure,
a budget intact.

No proof of purpose, no forced account transfer, no compulsory insurance.
