Consolidate Your Credit Card Debt

How much do you need?

What is a credit card consolidation loan?

A credit card consolidation loan lets you roll multiple high-interest credit card debts into a single loan with a fixed rate, term and one monthly payment. It could help you save money over the life of the loan with a competitive rate, putting you on a path to paying off debt.

A credit card consolidation loan could also diversify your credit mix and help improve your credit, as you reduce your total debt by making on-time monthly payments.

How Can We Help?

Members report saving money over the course of their loan with LendingClub when they use it to consolidate debt or pay down credit cards. Personal loans from LendingClub Bank have fixed rates and terms, so your monthly payment amount never changes, plus you'll know the exact date your loan will be paid in full.

When comparing your options, remember to factor in all costs such as balance transfer fees, annual fees, and early payoff penalties you may incur with credit cards or when borrowing from other sources.

Instead of credit limits, introductory rates, or revolving balances, credit card consolidation loans come with a fixed rate and an affordable monthly payment that you choose upfront.

This means you get to start putting a dent into your debt right away. The interest rate on your loan won't change once you lock in your rate, allowing you to focus on paying down what you owe with one monthly payment.

Reducing debt and maintaining low credit balances may contribute to an improvement in a credit score, but results are not guaranteed. Individual results vary based on multiple factors, including but not limited to payment history and credit utilization.


By rolling multiple revolving high-interest-rate credit card accounts into one loan with one monthly payment, credit card consolidation can be a good idea, especially if you qualify for a lower interest rate. A lower interest rate will help you reduce your total  debt expense and pay the debt off faster as long as you don't accumulate additional debt.

Checking your rate with LendingClub Bank has no impact to your credit score because we use a soft credit pull. A hard credit pull that could impact your score will only occur if you continue with your loan and your money is sent.

The good news is that a personal loan could positively impact your credit down the road if you’re able to show a history of on-time payments and a reduction in overall debt.

The speed of funding is dependent on approval. You can help keep things moving by checking your to-do list and ensuring you have submitted all the documents and information requested.

Once your personal financial information is verified and your loan funded, you can choose to have the money sent straight to your bank account and/or have us pay your creditors directly. The best part is you can apply and complete the entire process online from the comfort of your home using your phone, laptop, or tablet.

With a credit card consolidation loan from LendingClub Bank, you can choose to have payments automatically withdrawn from your bank account each month. We'll email you a reminder a few days in advance so you can make sure money is there. And if you prefer to mail us a check each month, that’s okay, too. You can also change your payment date, make additional payments, or pay off your loan right from your Account Summary.

What’s also great about having a credit card consolidation loan with a single monthly payment and a fixed loan term, you'll know exactly how much you owe each month and can circle the day your loan will be paid off.

    Savings are not guaranteed and depend upon various factors, including but not limited to interest rates, fees, term length, and making payments as agreed. 

    Reducing debt and maintaining low credit balances may contribute to an improvement in credit score, but results are not guaranteed. Individual results vary based on multiple factors, including but not limited to payment history and credit utilization.

    A representative example of payment terms for a Personal Loan is as follows: a borrower receives a loan of $19,169 for a term of 36 months, with an interest rate of 10.49% and a 6.00% origination fee of $1,150 for an APR of 14.81%. In this example, the borrower will receive $18,019 and will make 36 monthly payments of $623. Loan amounts range from $1,000 to $40,000 and loan term lengths range from 24 months to 60 months. Some amounts, rates, and term lengths may be unavailable in certain states.

    For Personal Loans, APR ranges from 8.98% to 35.99% and origination fee ranges from 3.00% to 8.00% of the loan amount. APRs and origination fees are determined at the time of application. Lowest APR is available to borrowers with excellent credit. Advertised rates and fees are valid as of March 8, 2024 and are subject to change without notice.

    Checking a rate through us generates a soft credit inquiry on a person’s credit report, which is visible only to that person. A hard credit inquiry, which is visible to that person and others, and 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. Credit eligibility is not guaranteed. APR and other credit terms depend upon credit score and other key financing characteristics, including but not limited to the amount financed, loan term length, and credit usage and history.
