Monthly Payment
Loan Amount$Rate%Term MonthsPay it Off
Before we fund the loan, the funds from the loan will be deposited into your savings. This money will have a hold on it until the entire loan is paid in full. Simply make on-time payments to avoid fees or credit score penalties.
Earn Interest
The money sitting in your saving’s account will earn interest based on current savings rates. Earn free money every month by simply making your loan payment and having the money on deposit.
Receive Money
After you have paid your loan in full, the funds will be released and the money is yours to spend. Plus, you should see an increase in your credit score!
