SECURED PERSONAL LOAN FAQs

A secured personal loan can help you build your credit if you make all of your payments on time, because your payment history factors into your credit score.

However, it’s important to make sure that the loan fits into your budget. If you miss any of your loan payments, that can negatively affect your credit and leave you in a worse situation.

No, you can only use the balances in your Certificate or Savings accounts as collateral for a secured personal loan.

No, we don’t check your credit when you apply for a secured personal loan. However, we do usually check your credit for other types of personal loans and lines of credit.
