How It Works

How the Loan Request Process Works

Understanding the steps from application to receiving offers

Step 1: Submit Your Information

Start by providing basic information about your loan needs. This typically includes the loan amount you're requesting, your income, employment status, and other relevant financial details. The process is designed to be quick—most applications take just 1-2 minutes to complete.

Your information is securely encrypted and protected. We don't sell your data or share it without your consent.

Step 2: Lenders Review Your Application

Once submitted, our network of third-party lenders receives your application. Each lender reviews your information based on their own underwriting criteria. They evaluate factors such as:

  • Credit history and score
  • Income and employment stability
  • Debt-to-income ratio
  • State regulations and eligibility

Not all lenders will approve every application, and approval depends on their specific criteria.

Step 3: Receive Offers

If a lender decides to make an offer, you'll receive the details including:

  • Loan amount available
  • APR (Annual Percentage Rate)
  • Repayment terms and schedule
  • Any fees associated with the loan

You can see all offers in one place, making it easy to compare.

Step 4: Review & Decide

Take time to review each offer carefully. Compare the APR, fees, repayment terms, and total cost. You're under no obligation to accept any offer. If you decide to proceed with a lender, you'll continue directly with them through their application process.

If you're approved and accept, funding timelines vary by lender—some can deposit funds within 1-2 business days.

Understanding APR & Timing

APR (Annual Percentage Rate) is the total yearly cost of borrowing, expressed as a percentage. It includes interest and certain fees, giving you a more complete picture of the loan cost than interest rate alone.

Timing: The entire process from submission to receiving offers typically takes minutes to hours, depending on how quickly lenders respond. However, final approval may take longer.
