Personal loans might be called different things, but they're all designed to provide you with temporary financial relief.
Most lenders require you to:
- Be employed in your current position for approximately 90 days or have
another source of adequate and predicable income;
- Be at least 18 years old, and a US citizen or a permanent resident;
- Have an income of approximately $1,000 per month after tax withholdings; and
- Have a valid email address, work phone number and home phone number.
The amount a lender is willing to give you depends on how the lender evaluates a
number of factors, including your state of residence and applicable legal
restrictions (loans are not available in all states). Many lenders in our network
will loan between $100 and $5,000.
Once the lender approves your loan and you accept the loan terms, your loan will be
deposited directly in your bank account, usually as soon as the next day.
Personal loans generally are offered for people with good credit, although each
lender has its own underwriting policies. An alternative for those with bad credit
may be to seek a short-term consumer loan. If we cannot find a lender that can offer
you a personal loan for the amount you requested, we will search our network of
short term lenders to see if we can find a short-term lender for you.
It should only take a few minutes to complete our secure online form. After we
receive your information, we immediately start looking for a lender that is willing
to work with you. You should have a response from one of our lenders within minutes.
Final approval and funding is often done in as little as 24 to 48 hours.
Some lenders will ask for your permission to access your information such as bank
statements or income verification online, saving you from having to fax or email
copies of those documents. However, your lender might need you to fax or email a
copy of your bank statement, paycheck stubs or other information. If you do not have
access to a scanner or printer, consider visiting Office Max, Kinkos or another
office service provider. You should also have access to a printer so you can print a
copy of your loan agreement. If you have questions after your loan is funded, you
will need your lender’s contact information!
There is no cost to use icashloans.com’s marketplace service. The actual cost of
your loan may vary by lender. You will be provided information on the rates and fees
before you accept the loan. Personal loans are not designed as long term financial
solutions but are often less costly than late charges, NSF fees or reconnect fees
for overdue utilities. Please only accept a loan if you believe you have the ability
to repay it.
You may be allowed to secure more than one personal loan at any given time, but this
will depend on your state’s laws as well as your lender’s practices. If you have an
outstanding personal loan or other personal loan, you should let your new lender
know about it before you accept a new loan.
If you have selected the convenient and secure ACH payment option, your loan payment
will be withdrawn from your bank account on its due date. This option is designed
for convenience and helps you avoid potential late fees or default! If you need an
extension on your loan, please contact your lender before you miss a payment
(additional fees may be involved).
Each lender has its own late payment policy and fees. Check your loan documents for
details or contact your lender directly. Some states may regulate or limit late
fees.

You can use our service to get a new loan at any time (subject, of course, to state
law restrictions). If you have recently taken out another personal loan that is
still outstanding, please inform your new lender before accepting a new loan.
The rules on extensions or “rollovers” varies among lenders and also may be
regulated by state law. Some states allow for multiple rollovers while others do not
allow it at all. If you need an extension on your loan, make sure to contact your
lender before you miss any payments. Most lenders will work with you to help you
avoid missing payments or defaulting on your loan.
