View ArticleA balance transfer loan is a simple way to pay down your credit cards or high-interest rate loans. If you get a balance transfer loan, you'll list the creditors youd like to pay and the amount to pay each one. Any money youdon'tuse to pay debt goes into your bank account.
Balance transfer loans vs. other options
Cash loans
With a cash loan through LendingClub, your entire loan amount will be deposited into your bank account, once approved. If you want money to make a large purchase, a cash loan could be a good choice. If youre looking to save money on interest, however, a balance transfer loan could be a smart decision. Balance transfer loans come with the lowest rates available through LendingClub.
Balance transfer loans vs. credit cards
A balance transfer loan has fixed terms, which means your annual percentage rate (APR) and monthly payment don't change. Unlike a credit card, its not revolving debt, so you have a clear payoff date and payment plan. And unlike balance transfer credit cards, theres no promo period or expiration date on your termsthe rate and monthly payments you agree to up front will stay the same for the life of your loan. Head to the LendingClub blog to learn more about the differences between balance transfer loans and credit cards.
Making transfers with your loan
You can pay up to 12 different creditors with a balance transfer loan. To see if you can pay a creditor, sign in to your account, go to your To-Do List, and enter the creditors name. If youdon'tsee it, you may not be able to pay that creditor directly.
Sometimes a credit card is listed under a different name than the one shown on your card. For a list of potential credit card names, read about adding creditors to your balance transfer loan.
A balance transfer loancan'tbe used to pay:
Mortgages
Auto loans
Student loans
How long a balance transfer loan takes
Depending on how the money is transferred, it may take a few days to a couple of weeks for your creditors to get the money:
Electronic payment
35 business days
Check payment
510 business days
Payment processing
Extra 13 days
To avoid late fees and extra charges, keep making your regular payments until the creditor confirms that theyve received the transfer. Typically, youll receive a refund for any overpayments.
Keep in mind that your old accounts will stay open even after theyve been paid with a balance transfer. To close your old accounts, you'll need to contact your creditors directly.
Your Truth in Lending disclosure shows which creditors you paid and the amounts sent to each. It also shows how much of your loan went to your bank account. To view your Truth in Lending disclosure, sign in to your account by visiting the Member Center.

Can I get a better APR?
APRs for personal loans
APRs for loans through LendingClub* range from 6.95% to 35.89%.All personal loans through LendingClub have fixed rates and fixed monthly payments.
At LendingClub, the APR includes the following:
Yearly interest rate
Origination fee
Origination fees for personal loans
Origination fees are one-time fees that range between 16% of the total loan amount. The origination fee is included in your APR and it is only charged if you receive a loan. The amount of the fee is based on your credit rating and the information in your application.
Your APR
Your APR is determined by a number of factors, including your application and credit history, and the estimated likelihood that youll be able to pay back your loan.
If information suggests that youre a lower credit risk, then youll get an offer with a lower APR.
If information suggests that youre a higher credit risk, then youll get an offer with a higher APR.
We know that you are so much more than just a number, but this method helps us deliver a fast, streamlined experience for borrowers.
No prepayment fees
You can make extra payments or pay off your loan in full at any time. We never charge any fees or penalties for making additional payments or paying your loan off early.
No application or brokerage fees
Applying for a loan is absolutely free, and no loan broker or other service is authorized to charge a fee on our behalf. We'll never ask you to pay any type of up-front application fee or other advance payment to obtain a loan.
If someone else asks you for a broker or application fee, please contact us at [email protected] so we can investigate.
Other fees
If your payment is more than 15 days late, we may charge late fees and other penalties to compensate the investors who've backed your loan. A late payment fee is 5.00% of your unpaid payment or $15, whichever is greater. You can find out more aboutlate fees and penalties in your Loan Agreement.
Can I get a better APR?
Unfortunately, your APR isn't negotiable. When comparing your options, be sure that you're factoring in all costs, such as balance transfer fees, annual fees, and early payoff penalties. Comparing the APR is the best, most accurate way to figure out the true cost of borrowing money. Also, keep in mind that applying for a loan through LendingClub does NOT affect your credit score.** This may not be the case with other loan options.
* All loans made by WebBank, Member FDIC.
** Checking your rate generates a soft credit inquiry, which is visible only to you. A hard inquiry that may affect your credit score only appears when your loan is issued.

If you want to make an extra payment by check, you can send us your check payment either by postal or courier mail. Make your check payable to LendingClub Corporation, and write your name (if it's not on your check) and loan number on your check, along with the letters "AP" so we know to apply the funds as an extra payment. For example:AP #123456789 Jane Well Rates and fees for personal loans

Note: Make extra payments in a separate check from your monthly payments. If you make your monthly payment plus an extra amount in the same check, the entire amount is processed as an extra payment that is applied to your principal balance, and your monthly payment is still due.
For example, if your monthly payment is $200 and you mail in a $300 check, the full $300 is applied as an extra payment. You would still owe your $200 monthly payment. If you just wanted to pay an extra $100 on your loan, you would write one check for your $200 monthly amount and a separate $100 check that would be applied as an extra payment.
Any payment that does not match your monthly payment amount is processed as an extra payment, and your monthly payment is still due.

How changing your due date affects interest
Your loan accrues interest daily.That means changing your due date can affect the amount of interest you pay at the end of your loan, but your monthly payment amount will stay the same.
Moving your due date later may result in an additional payment at the end of your loan to cover the extra interest. Moving your due date earlier may lower the total interest you pay. Changes in interest are only calculated at the end of your loan.
Permanently moving your due date
You can permanently move your payment to whenever works best for youeither so that it aligns better with when you're paid or so that it's not at the same time as when you pay other bills. If you've already permanently moved your payment due date once and want to move it again, call us at 844-227-5011.

Signing up for autopay is the easiest way to ensure your loan payments are on time. Automatic payments mean youll never pay a late fee as long as you have enough in your bank account. Just make sure there are funds to cover your payment on your autopay day each month, and youre all set.
Some banks hold funds one business day before the payment, so it's best to have the funds in your account by then.
You can learn about setting up automatic payments and switching your payment method by checking out the Help Center.
Here are some tips to help you make your payment on time and avoid late fees.
Check payments
Your check must arrive by 11:30 am Pacific Time if you want it to be processed on the same day. If your check arrives later than 11:30 am Pacific Time, it will be processed the next business day.
Payments by phone
If you call in to make your payment, the time you call determines when it will be processed. If you request it before 2 pm Pacific Time, the payment will be processed the next business day. If the request is after 2 pm Pacific Time, it will take two business days to process. For example:
If you call on Monday at 10 am Pacific Time to make a one-time payment, itll be processed on Tuesday.
If you call on Monday at 3 pm Pacific Time to make a one-time payment, itll be processed on Wednesday.
Please have your bank account information ready when you call.
Wire transfer payments
Wire transfer payments must arrive by 11:30 am Pacific Time if you want it to be processed on the same day. Keep in mind that wire transfers are only processed Monday through Friday. If your wire transfer arrives later than 11:30 am Pacific Time, it will be processed the next business day.

Grace period
Sometimes life happens. Thats why all our members get a 15-day grace period to make payments with no penalty. Keep in mind that interest will continue to accrue on your loan daily. That means delaying your payment may result in an extra payment at the end of your loan to cover the additional interest. If your payment doesnt arrive within the 15-day grace period, you may be charged a late fee.
As you know, your loan is backed by investors. When you make payments on your loan each month, your investors are paid back. Depending on how late payments are, collection agencies may be used to recover the money owed. Its because of timely payments that we can continue to offer access to great loans to members like you.
Reporting late payments to credit bureaus

View ArticleIf you're having trouble making your payments, we encourage you to reach out to us before enrolling with a debt settlement company. One of our experienced team members is here to answer your questions and discuss your options at no additional cost to you. Contact us at [email protected], or call us at 888-596-4478.
What should I think about before hiring a debt settlement company?
Debt settlement companies often claim they can negotiate with your creditors to reduce the amount you owe, but working with a debt settlement company doesn't necessarily mean that your loan will settle. Your loan will continue to accumulate interest, penalties, or fees until it is charged off. Before working with a debt settlement company, you should remember:
Debt settlement companies often charge expensive fees.
Debt settlement companies typically encourage you to stop making your credit card or LendingClub payments. If you stop paying your bills, you may incur late fees, penalty interest, and other charges, and creditors will likely step up their collection efforts against you.
Unless the debt settlement company settles all or most of your debts, the built-up penalties and fees on the unsettled debts may wipe out any savings the debt settlement company achieves on the debts it settles.
Using debt settlement services can have a negative impact on your credit and your ability to get credit in the future.
There is no guarantee that we will be able to negotiate a settlement with your debt settlement company. Your loan will continue to accumulate interest and any applicable penalties or fees until charge-off.
Find out more about debt settlement companies from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
We don't partner with debt settlement companies, but we can process payments we receive from a debt settlement company acting on your behalf. If you're already enrolled or plan to work with a debt settlement company, please email us your authorization to release information at [email protected].
We must receive your contractual payment on its due date every month to keep your account in good standing. If your debt settlement company mails us a payment thats less than the full settlement amount, well apply the payment directly to your principal balancenot to your monthly payment. We won't treat this payment as a final settlement.
Reporting late payments to credit bureaus
We're required by law to accurately report all account experiencespositive and negativeto one or more of the credit bureaus. What's reported to credit bureaus doesn't change if you're working with a debt settlement company, and we still must follow our policy on good faith updates. Lastly, we will still follow our charge-off policy if your loan becomes 120+ days past due.

Depending on where you're at in paying off your loan and other factors like whether you've ever missed or been late on a payment, you'll see different statuses for your loan on your credit report. Here are some of the most common ones.
Sections in this article cover:
Is your loan paid off?
Have you ever had late payments, now or in the past?
Has your loan been charged off?
What if you kept making payments or paid it off?
What if you settled?
What if it was charged off and sold?
Is your loan paid off?
Congratulations! Your credit report will show that your loan has a zero balance and will say something like "fully paid" or "closed." They both mean the same thing, so you're good to go!
Have you ever had late payments, now or in the past?
Late payments stay on your credit report for 7 years. This is true even if you've caught up on your payments and paid off your loan. We're required to report complete and accurate information and can't make good faith updates.
Has your loan been charged off?
If you've missed too many payments, your loan can be charged off, and your credit report will show a record of this.You still owe the remaining balance. Whether you've paid off the balance, settled it, or the loan is sold, the charge-off status will stay on your credit report for 7 years.
If your charged off loan hasn't been sold yet and you would like to begin making payment, please contact us immediately at [email protected] or call us at 844-227-5011.
What if you kept making payments or paid it off?
You can keep making payments or can fully pay off the balance of your charged-off account, and the charged-off status will remain on your credit report. If you do pay it off, your report will show both a zero balance as well as the missed payments that led to your loan being charged off. Paying off this outstanding debt can have a more favorable effect on your credit score, so it's best to keep making payments on the charged off balance to improve your financial health in the long run.
What if you settled?
If you settle the account for less than the full remaining balance, your credit report will show this, along with a zero balance and all the missed payments that led up to the charged-off status.
What if it was charged off and sold?
If your charged-off loan gets sold, your credit report will show a zero balance because you no longer owe the debt to usyou now owe the organization that purchased your loan.

On-time payment history
Your credit report shows your credit amounts and your track record of repaying them. Paying on time often weighs heavily into your credit score. Just one or two late payments could significantly affect it. Using automatic bill pay or calendar reminders are easy ways to help you avoid late payments.
Credit card usage
Your credit card usage is represented as a percentage. Its equal to your total credit card balances divided by your total credit card limits. Creditors use it to see how much of your available credit you tend to use. Lower credit card usage is generally considered to be better. If you want to decrease your credit usage, one way is to request an increased credit limit from your credit card provider. Keep in mind that to raise your limit, some companies make a hard credit inquiry that may affect your credit score. See Hard inquiries below for more information.
Average age of open credit lines
The longer your credit historyand the older your accountsthe better. That is why it can be a good idea to keep older credit cards open and active.
Total accounts
People with more accounts or open lines of credit often have higher credit scores because it shows that lenders are willing to give them credit. Having a good mix of different types of credit helps your credit health, as well. That said, it's definitely a balance, so only open accounts you really need.
Hard inquiries
When you apply for a credit card, mortgage, loan, or other credit, a hard credit inquiry appears on your credit report. One hard inquiry usually has little impact on your credit score, often a decrease of 15 points. Multiple inquiries can add up and have a larger impact.
In contrast, a soft inquiry doesn't affect your credit score. Only you can see it on your credit report. Others, like lenders, can't see it. When you check your rate through LendingClub, we use a soft inquiry. Well only do a hard pull of your credit (which could affect your credit score) once your loan is approved.
If your loan applicationisn'tapproved, theres no need to worry. Being declined doesn't hurt your credit.
Public records like judgments, tax liens, or bankruptcies can appear on your credit report as negative items. These records typically stay on your credit report for seven years. Certain bankruptcy types might remain for 10 years. If your credit report includes a negative public record, that can tell a lender that you may have mismanaged your credit in the past.

Why was I declined?
The specific reasons why your loan application was declined are provided in an Adverse Action notice. You can view your Adverse Action notice by navigating to the Loan Documents page from your account.
At LendingClub, you apply online and find out instantly whether youre pre-approved and what your offer is. If you choose to take the offer, we may ask you for documentation to verify your identity, employment, or income. If youdon'tsend us the documentation, or if your documentsdon'tmatch the information on your application, this can mean that the loan gets declined.
We understand that when that happens, its really frustrating. However, the trade-off is a streamlined process where you get a decision quickly and don't waste time if you don't qualify.
How does being declined affect my credit score?
When you apply for a loan, we use a soft credit inquiry to understand your credit history. This type of inquiry doesnt affect your credit score. See Being declined doesn't hurt your credit for more information.
Why was I declined after receiving an offer in the mail?
We use information provided by credit bureaus to identify potential borrowers and invite them to apply.When you respond to a pre-approved offer, we request updated information from credit bureaus to verify that you continue to meet the criteria the offer was based on. We may also request additional information, such as income and employment status.
We use all of this information to determine if you qualify for a loan. Sometimes, your current outstanding debt is too high relative to your income, or changes have occurred in your credit report since we identified you as a potential borrower. In those cases, your loan may be declined.
Why was I declined for an additional loan?
We consider a variety of factors to determine if you qualify for an additional loan, and then send you an invitation when you're eligible. However, we still need to review your financial profile before you can be given an offer. Though you have been a great customer, sometimes your current outstanding debt is too high relative to your income, or your financial profile has changed. In those cases, you may not qualify right away. As you pay down your debt and improve your credit score, you'll have a better chance of getting an offer. As always, theres no impact to your credit score to apply.
The specific reasons why your loan application was declined areprovided in an adverse action notice. You can review your adverse action notice by signinginto your account. When your financial profile has changed, youre welcome to come back and see what you qualify for.
