Frequently asked questions
What is the mathematical difference between Note Rate and APR under Truth in Lending (Regulation Z)?
Under 12 CFR § 1026.22, the Annual Percentage Rate (APR) reflects both the nominal interest rate (Note Rate) and any prepaid finance charges such as an origination fee. For example, a $25,000 36-month loan with an 8.50% note rate and a 2.00% ($500) origination fee disburses $24,500 net proceeds, resulting in a disclosed TILA APR of 9.92%.
Does pre-qualifying for an installment loan affect my FICO credit score?
No. Initial rate and term pre-qualification uses a soft credit inquiry under FCRA § 604, which is visible only to you on your consumer disclosure and never impacts your FICO or VantageScore credit rating. A hard inquiry occurs only if you select a final loan offer and execute the closing truth-in-lending promissory note.
How does paying off revolving credit cards with an installment loan improve FICO scores?
Amounts Owed accounts for 30% of a FICO score, weighted heavily toward revolving credit utilization (total credit card balances divided by total credit card limits). Paying off revolving card balances with a closed-end installment loan drops revolving utilization below the 10% optimal threshold while diversifying your Credit Mix (10% of FICO).
How do underwriters calculate Debt-to-Income (DTI) for unsecured personal loans?
Back-end DTI equals your total recurring monthly debt obligations (housing payment + auto loans + student loans + minimum credit card payments) divided by gross verifiable monthly income. Most prime unsecured installment facilities target a post-consolidation DTI below 40%–45%, where direct creditor payoff eliminates the existing card minimums from the DTI numerator.
Are there any prepayment penalties if I pay off my personal loan early?
No. All personal installment loans underwritten through our platform use simple daily interest with zero prepayment penalties. Any extra payment or early payoff goes 100% toward reducing your remaining principal balance, immediately lowering future interest accrual.
What documentation is required for same-day or next-day ACH verification?
Standard automated underwriting verifies identity (government-issued ID + SSN), income and cash flow (Plaid read-only bank connection or two recent paystubs / 1099 tax filings), and routing/account ownership for direct ACH disbursement.
