Why is a Lifestyle Loan better than just using my credit cards?
Credit cards are extremely tempting because they are so easy to use—emphasis on the word “use.” Because your credit limits are revolving, as soon as you pay down the balance, the available credit you have is also replenished by that amount. So, the temptation to hop on that hamster wheel and just keep using your credit cards without ever once paying them off is all too real. Average credit card interest rates in the United States as of December 13, 2022 is 22.91%*, which means, you're likely paying thousands (and we do mean thousands) of dollars in interest without ever making forward progress.
With a Lifestyle Loan, you borrow a specific amount over a specific term. But, you make no payments whatsoever for 90 days².
Once you do start making payments, you pay one set amount each month until that last payment when your loan balance becomes zero, and the loan is paid in full. Now, that is a great feeling, way better than the hamster wheel of paying credit cards down a little only to charge them back up after a few months.
Enjoy low, fixed-term rates from:
Borrow up to
$25,000
and take up to 90 days before making your first payment².
