FAQ’s

Does applying affect my credit score?

OppLoans may use credit report information provided by Clarity Services and Experian as part of the application process to determine your creditworthiness. Neither credit inquiry will appear as a hard credit inquiry on your Experian credit report, and therefore they will not affect your FICO score.

How does OppLoans compare to payday loans?

According to the Consumer Federation of America, a non-profit consumer advocacy group, payday loans range in size from $100 to $1,000, depending on state legal maximums, and carry an average annual percentage rate (APR) of 400%. The maximum APR for a loan offered through and serviced by OppLoans is 179%, and loan sizes range from $500 to $4,000.
