Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to the most common questions about integration, security, and how to start offering financing through your platform.

What is a debt-to-income ratio?
 

The debt-to-income ratio is a financial measure that compares your total monthly debt payments to your gross monthly income. Lenders use this ratio to assess your ability to manage monthly payments and repay borrowed funds.

Can I refinance my loan?
 

Yes, refinancing a loan involves taking out a new loan to pay off an existing one, often to secure a lower interest rate or better terms. It's important to consider the costs associated with refinancing before proceeding.

What happens if I miss a payment?
 

Missing a payment can result in late fees, a negative impact on your credit score, and potential collection actions. It's crucial to communicate with your lender if you anticipate missing a payment to explore possible solutions.

How do I choose the right lender?
 

Choosing the right lender involves researching different options, comparing interest rates, fees, and customer reviews. It's important to select a lender that aligns with your financial needs and offers favorable terms.

What is a variable-rate loan?
 

A variable-rate loan is a loan where the interest rate can change over time based on market conditions. This means that monthly payments may fluctuate, which can be beneficial if rates decrease but may also pose a risk if rates increase.

Can I pay off my loan early?
 

Many lenders allow borrowers to pay off their loans early without penalties, but some may charge a prepayment fee. It's advisable to check your loan agreement or consult with your lender to understand their policy on early repayment.

What are the requirements for a loan?
 

Loan requirements can differ by lender, but common requirements include being at least 18 years old, having a steady income, and a good credit history. Some lenders may also require additional documentation, such as bank statements or tax returns.

What is the interest rate on loans?
 

The interest rate on loans can vary based on several factors, including your credit score, the type of loan, and the lender's policies. Generally, borrowers with higher credit scores qualify for lower interest rates, while those with lower scores may face higher rates.

How do I apply for a loan?
 

To apply for a loan, you typically need to fill out an application form, provide personal information, and submit documentation such as proof of income and identification. Many lenders offer online applications for convenience, allowing you to complete the process from home.
