Personal Loans for Any Purpose

A personal loan is an unsecured loan that can be used for virtually any purpose. Unlike mortgages or auto loans that are tied to specific purchases, personal loans give you the flexibility to use funds however you need - from consolidating debt to financing major purchases or covering unexpected expenses.

Through LoansLucre, you can access personal loans ranging from $1,000 to $50,000. The amount you qualify for depends on factors including your credit score, income, debt-to-income ratio, and employment history. Our lending network includes options for various financial profiles.

Personal loan APRs typically range from 5.99% to 35.99%, depending on your credit profile and the lender. Borrowers with excellent credit (720+) often qualify for rates on the lower end, while those with fair or poor credit may see higher rates. We recommend comparing multiple offers to find your best rate.

A personal loan makes sense when: 1) You need to borrow a fixed amount for a specific purpose, 2) You want predictable monthly payments, 3) You're consolidating high-interest debt to save money, 4) You prefer an unsecured loan without risking collateral. Consider your financial goals and ability to make monthly payments.

Our initial rate check uses a soft credit inquiry, which does NOT affect your credit score. This lets you see potential offers without commitment. A hard inquiry only happens when you formally apply and accept a loan offer. Hard inquiries may temporarily lower your score by a few points.

Many of our lending partners offer instant decisions. Once you submit your full application, you can receive approval in as little as a few minutes to 24 hours. After accepting an offer, funds are typically deposited within 1-3 business days.

Yes! Most personal loans from our lending partners have no prepayment penalties. Paying off your loan early can save you significant money in interest. You can make extra payments or pay off the full balance at any time without additional fees.

While requirements vary by lender, we work with partners who consider borrowers with credit scores as low as 580. Generally, scores of 670+ are considered "good" and qualify for better rates. However, income, employment, and debt-to-income ratio are also important factors in approval decisions.

Personal loans often offer lower interest rates than credit cards, especially for borrowers with good credit. They're ideal for larger, one-time expenses where you prefer fixed monthly payments. Credit cards offer more flexibility for ongoing expenses. For debt consolidation, personal loans are often the better choice.

Typically you'll need: government-issued ID, proof of income (pay stubs, tax returns, or bank statements), Social Security number, and banking information. Some lenders may request additional documentation. Having these ready speeds up the application process.
