Loan Types
The lenders in our network offer several types of loan products. Below is a general overview of what may be available to you. Actual products, amounts, and terms depend on lender availability and your qualifications.
Personal Loans
$1,000 – $5,000 | 12 – 36 months | Fixed monthly payments
Personal loans are general-purpose installment loans that can be used for nearly any legitimate purpose — debt consolidation, home improvement, medical expenses, vehicle repairs, or other planned expenses. You borrow a lump sum and repay it in equal monthly installments over a fixed term.
Who it's for
Borrowers who need a medium-sized amount and prefer predictable, fixed monthly payments. A steady income is typically required. Both good and bad credit borrowers may apply — lender criteria vary.
Typical APR range
Roughly 18% to 120% APR depending on creditworthiness, lender, loan amount, and term. Borrowers with stronger credit may receive lower rates.
What to expect
- Lender may perform a credit check
- Fixed monthly payment for the life of the loan
- No collateral required (unsecured)
- Funds deposited directly to your checking account
Installment Loans
$500 – $2,500 | 6 – 24 months | Scheduled payments
Installment loans are structured like personal loans but typically for smaller amounts and shorter terms. Repayments are made on a scheduled basis — often aligned with your pay cycle — making them predictable and easier to budget for.
Who it's for
Borrowers who need a few hundred to a few thousand dollars for a specific, near-term expense and want to spread repayment over several months rather than all at once.
Typical APR range
Roughly 60% to 250% APR. Installment loans for smaller amounts often carry higher APRs than large personal loans because of fixed origination costs.
What to expect
- Payments are scheduled (weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly)
- Some lenders may use alternative credit data rather than a traditional credit check
- Unsecured — no collateral required
- State regulations may limit amounts and rates
Short-Term Cash Advances
$100 – $1,000 | Due next pay period | Single repayment
Short-term cash advances (sometimes called payday loans) are small-dollar, short-duration loans intended to bridge a gap until your next paycheck. The full balance plus fees is typically due on your next pay date.
Who it's for
Borrowers facing an urgent expense — an overdue utility bill, a car repair, an emergency purchase — who are confident they can repay the full amount from their next paycheck.
Typical APR range
Short-term advances often carry very high APRs (200% – 450% or more) because fees are charged on a short-term basis. This does not mean the total dollar cost is high — a $300 loan due in two weeks may have a $45 fee — but expressed as an annual rate it is significant. These products should not be used as a long-term financial solution.
What to expect
- Lender will verify income and active bank account
- Full repayment typically due on your next pay date
- Available in fewer states due to regulations
- Late repayment can result in significant additional fees
APR Disclosure
APRs typically range from 4.99% to 450% depending on loan type, amount, term, and your credit profile. Representative example: A $1,000 loan repaid over 12 months at 36% APR would have a monthly payment of approximately $100.46 and a total cost of $1,205.50. Actual rates and terms are set by lenders and may vary based on creditworthiness, state of residence, and applicable law. Not all applicants will qualify.
