Application Process
What is the difference between a personal installment loan
and a personal line of credit?
A personal installment loan is ideal when you know how much money you need
upfront and you don’t anticipate needing additional financing in the
near future. With a personal installment loan, you receive the entire loan
amount upfront.
A personal line of credit is ideal when you are not sure how much you need
or when you will need it. With a personal line of credit, you borrow only
the funds you need at the time you need them without having to reapply during
the term of the line of credit.
