What Is a Personal Loan?

A personal loan is a consumer loan that is typically paid back in equal payments over a set period of time. Personal loans are typically used for unexpected expenses like home repairs, car repairs, medical bills, and other emergencies. These loans can be secured by collateral or unsecured and underwritten based on your income and debt. Peak Loans offers unsecured personal loans from $100 to $2,500 and the loans are typically paid in full in less than a year.

Borrowers approved for a personal loan at Peak Loans pay back the amount borrowed, plus applicable interest and fees. Loan amounts vary depending on the state, a borrower's income, and our standard underwriting criteria. There are no prepayment penalties at Peak Loans, so borrowers who repay early may save money versus using the entire time allotted to pay back the loan.
