How can I prepare to apply for a loan?
Many customers find it stressful looking for and applying for loans and are pleasantly surprised by how easy we make it to apply for one here at Alternate Finance. Whether you need a loan for a new car, to consolidate your debt, or for an emergency situation, you need the money as quickly as possible. That’s why we make the application process as hassle-free as we can. So, let’s go through what you need to prepare and the process of applying for one of our loans.
The Loan Application Process
Loan Calculator
The first thing you will need to do before applying for a loan is to check out what your repayments may be with the loan calculator. This calculator makes it easy to see exactly how much you would be borrowing, how much you would be repaying, and it lets you know how long it will take to pay off the loan.
Simply enter the amount you would like to borrow into the calculator and how much you can repay weekly. Then it pops up with how long this will take to pay off. This gives you the chance to play around with it and see how much faster you could pay it off if you increase the payments. Even a little more each week can make a huge difference to the length of the loan.
Online Application Form
Once you’re happy with the amount you’re borrowing, you can head over to our online application form. The quick online application process takes less than 10 minutes to complete, so it doesn’t require a lot from you! You simply need to enter your personal details such as email, phone number, and your full name. You will also need to add in the amount that you would like to borrow and how much you can repay. Plus, we need to know that you can repay the loan so there are some details about your collateral too.
Check
Next, our expert team will review your loan application. They are checking to see whether it is realistic for you to repay the amount borrowed in the time given. We only give out loans that we believe can be repaid in the timeframe by the person in question. It’s part of our commitment to responsible lending.
Success!
Within 24 hours of you completing the application form, our team will get back to you with the result. Hopefully, it will be good news for you! Then you will quickly receive the money and can grab those essentials you need.
Once you have been approved, you will need to start making repayments. Make these payments on time every week to avoid racking up late payment fees which will add to the length of your loan.
