What We Love About LendingPoint Loans

This company's biggest selling point is that they work with subprime and less-than-perfect credit and still provide personal installment loans with reasonable interest rates. People with less-than-perfect credit who want access to reasonable terms, fair rates, and quick cash will find that LendingPoint has a lot to offer. Plus, the company will even report to the credit bureaus, allowing you to improve your credit rating by repaying the loan in a timely fashion.

Rather than relying solely on your credit score, LendingPoint will look at the various aspects of your financial history to determine your overall risk. This allows consumers who may have had some struggles to still have a fair chance.

What Could LendingPoint Do Better?

The biggest drawback here is that loan amounts and terms are restrictive. The maximum loan amount might not be enough for all borrowers, and some people may want to start repayment sooner than what is outlined in the loan agreement. However, if these are the biggest flaws that can be found, LendingPoint is worth the look for personal loans.

LendingPoint's Backstory

LendingPoint was founded in 2014, so it’s one of the newer companies on the market today. However, the company was founded by those who come from working capital lenders and understand consumers' needs when it comes to direct lending. The brand is committed to providing various loan solutions for people that can be used for house repairs, car repairs, vacation, and other needs.

Because the company is a direct lender, they can approve all applications instantly and provide better terms and rates than you might find with third-party lenders.

The Verdict

For those who need quick cash, LendingPoint offers access to fixed installment loans with competitive rates, but they also do it for people who have less than perfect credit, which isn’t always offered. However, you’ll still need to get a few quotes to make sure they’re the right fit.
