What Is a Personal Loan?

A personal loan with Republic Finance is money you borrow and pay back through monthly installments.1 The loans are usually paid over multiple years instead of weeks or months, involve a simple application process, and may provide more predictable repayment plans than credit cards.2

You can use your loan for a variety of reasons, whether on home repairs, holiday spending, or financial emergencies.

Generally, a personal loan is secured by collateral, such as your automobile or other personal property such as your laptop. You can also see if you prequalify for an unsecured loan through Republic Finance’s website.

For typical applicants, loan offers feature quotes for loans with terms of 12 to 60 months. As an example, if you borrowed $7,000 with a 30.04% Annual Percentage Rate (“APR”) and a 60-month term, your payments would be $226.47 per month. This example is based on an average customer with good credit. APRs will not exceed 36.00%. Not all consumers are eligible to apply online. Secured loan options are available exclusively in-branch and have additional collateral and insurance requirements. Loan terms, rates, and origination fees apply based on your state of residence and may vary depending on your creditworthiness. All loans and renewals are subject to approval pursuant to standard underwriting criteria. Not all consumers will qualify.
