LendingClub's API

LendingClub offers REST API services that allow investors to access the LendingClub platform programmatically. The API was created to help investors who want to customize and independently automate their investments in LendingClub loans.

Who uses LendingClub's API?

Our API may be used by individuals, institutions, and third parties to access the LendingClub platform.

Using our API may be attractive to investors who:

  • Prefer to access the LendingClub platform programmatically, rather than logging in manually to the website

  • Prefer that investments be executed automatically based on their investment criteria

  • Have sophisticated programming skills that allow them to execute their individual investment strategy by building customized software

API users and users who access the LendingClub website by manually logging in to their account both have identical access to loan inventory and data; there is no preferential treatment or special access granted to investors who access the LendingClub platform using the API.

What services and support are available?

LendingClub offers several services via the API that allow users to:

  • Browse the loans currently listed on the platform

  • Submit orders based on filters and criteria that they build and customize

  • Review their account summary and detailed holding information

API users have access to the API Documentation. However, there is no dedicated support for API users.

API users are fully responsible for actions performed using their API credentials and any investments made as a result of those actions.

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 $19,584 for a term of 36 months, with an interest rate of 10.29% and a 6.00% origination fee of $1,190 for an APR of 14.60%. In this example, the borrower will receive $18,663 and will make 36 monthly payments of $643. 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 9.57% 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 July 11, 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.
