Three stops along the way

How a loan request works here

  1. First

    Fill in one short request

    A few minutes on any phone. It is free and you are not signing up for a loan.

  2. Then

    Lenders in our network can look at it

    Every lender decides on its own. You might get an offer, or you might not.

  3. Last

    Read the offer, then choose

    The lender lists the rate, fees and due date. If approved and you accept, funds can arrive as soon as the next business day.

WickerPath is a free referral service, not a lender, and makes no credit decisions.

FAQ

Questions people ask before they start

Is WickerPath the company that lends to me?

No. WickerPath is a free referral service, not a lender. We send your request to lenders in our network, and each lender makes its own choice.

What can a small loan be used for?

People ask for help with rent, a utility bill, a medical copay or a home repair. Ask for $100 to $5,000, then weigh any offer against the cost of a late fee before you accept.

Do lenders check my credit?

Sending the request is free and you are not bound to accept anything. A lender may run its own credit check as part of considering your request.

What if my credit history has a few marks on it?

You can still ask. Every credit type is considered, and lenders may look at your income and bank account too. Approval is not guaranteed, and terms vary by lender.

How soon could funds arrive?

If a lender approves you and you accept, the money can arrive as soon as the next business day. The lender and your bank decide the exact timing.

How much will the loan cost?

That depends on the lender, the amount, where you live and your credit. Short-term loans can carry high APRs, some above 200%, so read the rate, fees and due date first. You never have to accept.
