For Personal Loans, APR ranges from 5.96% APR to 35.99% APR and origination/processing fee ranges from 0.00% to 8.00% of the loan amount.

The lowest APR may be available to borrowers with excellent credit, subject to additional factors including, but not limited to, loan amount, loan term, and sufficient investor commitment.

1. Between January 2026 to March 2026, 64% of LendingClub Personal Loans that were approved for funding (which is after your loan application is approved) on a given business day were disbursed within 24 hours. Actual availability of funds may vary and is dependent on multiple factors, including, but not limited to your receiving bank’s processing times and policies. A business day is defined as Monday through Friday and excludes the weekend and bank holidays.
2. Checking a rate through us generates a soft inquiry on a person’s credit report, which does not impact that person’s credit score. A hard credit inquiry, which may affect that person’s credit score, only appears on the person’s credit report if and when a loan is issued to the person.
