Application FAQs

Have questions about applying? Here are answers to the most common questions we receive from applicants.

Will checking my rate affect my credit score?
No, checking your rate performs a soft credit inquiry that does not affect your credit score. This allows you to see your potential rates and loan options without any risk. Only when you accept an offer and proceed with a full application will we perform a hard credit inquiry, which may have a small temporary impact on your score. We believe you should be able to explore your options freely before making any commitment.
How long does the application process take?
The initial rate check takes just 2-3 minutes to complete. If you like your offer and decide to proceed, the full application typically takes 5-10 minutes. Most applications receive a decision within 24 hours, though some may require additional documentation review. Once approved, funds are typically deposited within 1-3 business days, depending on your bank's processing times.
What credit score do I need to qualify?
We consider applicants with a wide range of credit scores. While we don't have a strict minimum score requirement, most approved applicants have a credit score of 580 or higher. However, credit score is just one factor we consider. We also look at income, employment history, debt-to-income ratio, and other factors to get a complete picture of your financial situation. Even if your credit isn't perfect, we encourage you to check your rate.
Can I pay off my loan early without penalties?
Absolutely! We do not charge any prepayment penalties. You're free to pay off your loan early, make extra payments, or pay more than your minimum payment at any time without any additional fees. In fact, paying off your loan early can save you money on interest charges. We believe in giving you the flexibility to manage your loan in whatever way works best for your financial situation.
What documents will I need to provide?
For the initial rate check, you only need to provide basic personal information. If you proceed with a full application, you may be asked to provide proof of income (such as pay stubs or tax returns), proof of identity (government-issued ID), and bank account information for fund disbursement. Some applicants may need to provide additional documentation depending on their situation. We'll let you know exactly what's needed during the application process.
How much can I borrow?
Our personal loans range from $500 to $5,000. The exact amount you qualify for depends on several factors including your credit profile, income, debt-to-income ratio, and the loan purpose. When you check your rate, we'll show you the loan amounts you're pre-qualified for, allowing you to choose the option that best meets your needs while staying within a comfortable repayment range.
