A backup if no lender matches

You may be shown other options, such as debt relief providers.

Common questions

Will checking hurt my credit?

Submitting the request form won't affect your credit score. A lender you choose to move forward with may run a credit check as part of their own review.

Is Lending For Bad Credit a lender?

No. It's a free service that connects you with lenders and lending partners. The lender sets your rate and terms, and you'll see them before you agree to anything.

How much will the loan cost?

It depends on your state, credit history, loan amount and term. For example, a $10,000 loan over 36 months at 10% APR comes to $11,616.12 in total repayment.

Am I guaranteed a loan?

No. Not every lender can offer every loan amount or term, and approval is decided by the lender.
