Rates and Terms

Exact rates and terms depend on the loan type, your credit, and state. Payday loans offer amounts of $100–$1,000, although most states cap them at $300 or $500. Common repayment terms are 14–30 days. Fees are usually $10–$30 per $100 borrowed, translating to an APR of 260%–782% for a standard 14-day loan.

Installment loans allow you to borrow up to $5,000 and repay over 2–24 months in fixed monthly payments. APRs typically range from 16% to 200%, depending on your credit. If you borrow $1,000 for 12 months at an APR of 36%, your total loan cost will be $1,205.55, with a monthly payment of $100.46.

Note: Loan availability varies by state. Some states cap short-term loan APRs at 36% or less. Check your local lending rules and regulations before applying.

FAQ

Signature loans are unsecured personal loans that require no collateral, co-signer, or repayment guarantee other than your signature.

Reliable lenders need to check your credit and financial profiles to verify your loan eligibility. However, not all checks will affect your credit score. Most lenders we partner with perform only a soft credit check that does not show up on your credit report. However, some lenders may run a hard inquiry for the final approval after notifying you, especially if you request a high amount.

If you receive your loan via an ACH deposit, the money will arrive as soon as the next business day after approval. Same-day funding may be possible for approvals before 10:30 am local time on weekdays. Cash loans may be issued right away if you apply at a store and repay through a post-dated check. Some lenders may also offer instant deposits to a debit card.

A bank account is usually required to deposit loan funds and collect payments. However, some lenders may transfer money to your debit card.
