Apply for a CashLend Personal Loan

Life doesn't always go according to our plans. A car breaks down all of a sudden. An emergency bill pops up, or a  great price for something you actually need comes along. CashLend can help you cover the gap with our small personal loans ranging from $500 to $5,000. Our loan application is 100% online and can be finished in as fast as 10 minutes.

What Are Personal Loans?

A personal loan is a lump sum you pay back over a set term. Repayments happen on a regular schedule, so your budget stays steady compared to a credit card balance that shifts around. Use it for real needs such as consolidating debts into one, fixing things at home, covering medical bills, paying for your studies, taking a trip or purchasing the bigger items that would sting on a card. Knowing how personal loans work helps you choose well.

A personal loan gives you a fixed amount and a clear end date. Repayments follow a set schedule, so planning your budget is easier than with a credit card that goes up and down. You can pick a secured loan if you want a lower rate and you have an asset to use as security. Otherwise, you can opt for an unsecured loan if you prefer no collateral and faster access to funds. The right option depends on your situation and what feels comfortable for you.

What Are the Types of Personal Loans?

Secured Personal Loans

Secured personal loans typically require a collateral in the form of assets such as cars or other valuable items that can easily be liquidated. With a collateral in place, this usually means lower interest rates on your loan. Secured personal loans are a good option if you're planning to pay for something big, and you're comfortable tying the loan to an asset.

Unsecured Personal Loans

Unsecured personal loans don't need any collateral. It is easier to access but the rates can be higher because the lender takes more risk.

Fixed Rate Personal Loans

A fixed rate personal loan, on the other hand, means that your repayment rate remains the same throughout the whole term of the contract. This is perfect for those who like to stick to their budget.

Personal Loan FAQS

How much can I borrow?You can apply for $500 to $5,000. The approved amount depends on your income, expenses, and credit history, and we only approve what looks affordable.

How fast is the process?Most applications get an initial decision within hours. After approval and signing, funds are usually paid within 24 hours, noting your bank’s processing times.

Can I repay my loan early?Yes. Extra repayments reduce interest and can help you finish sooner. Ask us for your payout figure at any time.

Will applying hurt my credit score?We run checks as part of responsible lending. Using credit within your means and paying on time can support a healthy credit record over time.

Can I apply even with bad credit?Absolutely! We look at more than your credit history, including steady income and day to day affordability. A lower score may affect your rate, but it does not automatically mean a decline.

What if I miss a repayment?Contact us as soon as you can. We will review options with you and work on a plan to catch up. Missed payments can lead to fees and may affect your credit history.

Are there restrictions on how I can use the money?You can use a personal loan for most everyday purposes, like bills, repairs, or consolidating debt. We do not fund illegal activity or anything that would breach responsible lending obligations.

What documents will I need?Have valid ID, proof of income, and recent bank statements ready. We will let you know if we need anything else.

How do I choose the right term?Shorter terms mean higher repayments but less interest overall. Longer terms lower the repayment amount but increase total interest. Choose the option you can maintain comfortably.
