Frequently Asked Questions

We are here to help

What is a Personal Loan?

Personal loans are generally loans without collateral (hence the name personal). Personal loans can be used for any purpose, but common uses include debt consolidation, credit card payoffs, etc.. It may go without saying but personal loans should be used responsibly. Be sure to read the terms before accepting.

What is a Short Term Loan?

Short term loans are designed around addressing an immediate financial need or emergency. This could be an unexpected medical bill, a broken down car, etc. The loan amount range is usually up to $1,000 and the term can range from under 30 days for a payday style loan to monthly or weekly installments for an installment style loan.

Why are you collecting my SSN and Bank Details?

Our network of lenders use your SSN and bank details to help them make a decision about whether or not to extend you a loan offer. The bank details also help the lender that you are connected to know how to send money to your account. Our websites are encrypted using industry recognized encryption technology to help keep your information safe. Additionally, lenders use the SSN to help ensure the identity of the applicant is really the person they say they are.

Are you a lender?

No, we are not a lender. We work with several lenders to make up a network that can help you to find a loan. After submitting a request, if accepted, we will forward you to the lender's website where you will be able to learn more about your specific loan offer.

Submitting information through the website form does not guarantee that a consumer will connect with a lender or qualify for a loan or a specific amount of credit. The typical loans products offered by lenders which consumers may connect with are not long-term financial solutions but instead, are intended to provide temporary credit to resolve immediate financial needs or emergencies. The operators of this website receive monetary compensation from the lenders a consumer may connect with and whose products are presented through the website, such as a referral for each consumer request they receive. To summarize, the operator of this website earns referral fees from passing information to lenders.

Indian tribes that are federally recognized are independent sovereign nations, meaning that their wholly owned entities are generally not subject to certain laws and regulations governing lending, such as rates, fees and other loan related conditions. Consumers that connect with tribal lending institutions on this website are encouraged to review all material terms, including rates, as they may be higher than those rates offered by certain state licensed lenders. Lenders you may connect with are required by federal law to disclose material loan terms and conditions to consumers, such as rates and fees.
