Prosper is a peer-to-peer lender, meaning you’re borrowing from hundreds of individual investors, not a bank. As a result, many borrowers who cannot get approved for a bank personal loan have success with Prosper. The better your credit, the lower your APR, and the interest rates for borrowers with poor credit can get steep. There’s also a one-time closing fee of between 2 and 5 percent (again, this depends on your creditworthiness).
5.99% – 35.36% | 36 or 60 months | $2, 000 – $35, 000 | 2%-5% of loan amount | Average, Good, Excellent |
3- or 5- year loans for any purpose.
Like Prosper, LendingClub is a peer-to-peer lender, not a bank. This means approval decisions are made based on more than your credit score alone. Investors have been hungry to fund these kinds of loans recently, meaning approval chances are good — but you don’t know what your interest rate will be until you apply (although you don’t have to accept the loan if you don’t like the rate). As with Prosper, a one-time origination fee of between 1.11 and 5 percent applies at closing.
5.99% – 32.99% | $1, 000 – $35, 000 | $1.11% – 5.00% |
