Personal Loan Tips

Improve Your Credit Score

A higher credit score can save you thousands in interest over the life of your personal loan.

Shop Around for Rates

Compare rates from multiple lenders including banks, credit unions, and online lenders.

Choose Shorter Loan Terms

Shorter terms have lower interest rates and save more on total interest, though payments are higher.

Read the Fine Print

Check for origination fees, prepayment penalties, and other hidden costs before signing.

Consider Total Cost, Not Monthly Payment

Longer terms lower monthly payments but increase total interest paid significantly.

Get Pre-Qualified

Many lenders offer pre-qualification with a soft credit check that doesn't affect your score.

Important Financial Disclaimer

This personal loan calculator provides estimates based on the information you provide. Actual loan terms, rates, and payments may vary based on your creditworthiness, income, debt-to-income ratio, and the lender's specific criteria. Always read the full loan agreement and consult with a financial advisor before taking out a personal loan.
