Borrowing Made Accessible

We believe fair credit should be within reach for hardworking Americans. While every lender has criteria, you may qualify if you:

  • Are at least 18 years old (19 in AL/NE)
  • Have a steady source of income (job, self-employed, benefits, or retirement)
  • Own an active checking account
  • Are a U.S. citizen or permanent resident

Bad credit? No problem. Our network includes lenders who look beyond just your credit score. Checking your options never hurts your score.

📋 Important Compliance Disclosures

Not a Direct Lender: BearLoans is not a direct lender. We operate as a matching service connecting borrowers with a network of licensed lending partners.

Truth in Lending Act (TILA): All loan terms, including APR, monthly payments, and total repayment costs, are fully disclosed before you accept any offer.

Equal Credit Opportunity Act (ECOA): Federal law prohibits discrimination in lending based on race, color, religion, national origin, sex, marital status, age, or receipt of public assistance.

Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA): BearLoans uses a soft credit pull that does not affect your credit score. A hard inquiry only occurs after you accept a specific loan offer.

Representative Example: A $2,500 loan with a 24-month term at 18.00% APR would result in monthly payments of approximately $124.65 and total repayment of approximately $2,991.60.

Responsible Lending Pledge: BearLoans requires all partner lenders to verify income, assess ability to repay, and never offer loans that would create undue financial hardship.

State Availability: Loan availability varies by state. Some states have specific lending regulations that may affect eligibility.

CFPB Resource: Borrowers can contact the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau at consumerfinance.gov with any complaints or concerns.
