What does a credit check look at?
A credit report can include your existing debts, available credit, payment history, and collection records. This information helps lenders assess repayment risk.
- Outstanding debts and balances you still owe.
- The unused portion of your credit limits.
- How you have repaid past and current debts.
02
How does bank verification work?
Instant bank verification uses a read-only connection to help confirm income and banking activity. It can replace the need to send paper statements.
- Verification takes place during your application.
- A read-only connection cannot make transactions.
- The lender uses this information to review your application.
03
What should I review before accepting?
Read the complete offer and agreement before you commit. Your payment schedule should show the amount and date of each payment.
- The amount you receive and total amount to repay.
- The interest rate and any applicable fees.
- Payment dates and what happens if a payment is late.
04
What does a cosigner arrangement involve?
Some applications may require a qualified cosigner. An introduction to an independent service is separate from the lender’s approval decision.
- Review the responsibilities in the agreement.
- Cosigner fees are separate from your loan agreement.
- Ask questions before signing either agreement.
