Questions

Personal loans for unexpected costs, explained

Will checking offers hurt my credit?

No. Checking your options won't affect your credit score. A lender may run its own credit check as part of considering your request.

How quickly could I get the money?

That depends on the lender and your bank. Some lenders fund as soon as the next business day, if approved. Any offer shows its timing before you agree.

Who can send a request?

You need to be 18 or older and a US resident, with regular income, an active checking account in your name, and a phone number and email you use.

What if my credit isn't perfect?

Lenders in our network consider all credit types. A lower score can mean fewer offers or different terms, and approval is never certain, but it does not stop you from sending a request.

Is FinanceMeadow the lender?

No. FinanceMeadow is a referral service, not a lender. We pass your request to lenders in our network, and any offer comes from the lender, on the lender's terms.

What amount can I ask for?

Anything from $100 to $5,000. A lender may offer a different amount after its own review.

Make some space.

One request. $100 – $5,000. Lenders in our network take it from there.
