The fine print
Numbers people ask about
What does a lender want from me?
Be 18 or older and live in the US, with regular income, a checking account under your name, and a phone and email you'll respond to.
Will lenders quote me with bad credit?
They'll look. Lenders we work with consider all credit histories. Lower scores tend to mean fewer quotes or steeper terms, and approval is never certain.
Who's quoting, you or a lender?
A lender. PistonQuotes is a referral service and not a lender itself; we send your form to lenders we work with, and every quote and term is theirs.
What range can I ask about?
From $100 up to $5,000. A lender's quote might land at a different figure after it reviews you.
Is my credit pulled?
It might be. A lender considering your request can check your credit, and it tells you how before you agree.
How long until money arrives?
The lender and your bank decide that. With approval and your acceptance, some deposit the next business day. The quote states the timing.
