Credit Recovery Loan
Everybody deserves a good credit comeback.
Credit Recovery Loan 101
To get your credit up and running or back on track, we loan you up to $1,500 and put it straight into your savings account — with a hold on the funds. You’ll pay us monthly until the loan is paid in full (congrats!), then we’ll release the funds for you to spend as you wish.
Shine up that credit score.
At a fixed rate of 10% and with a 10-day payment grace period, our Credit Recovery loan helps you establish or repair your credit with almost no risk. And the best part? We provide the funds up front which means you don’t have to. You can set your payment terms for up to 24 months, and we recommend a term of at least 12 months* so you have a year’s worth of reliable payment history to show for your hard work.
