Zero Prepayment or Application Fees
How We Determine Your APR
We determine your annual percentage rate (APR) based on several factors, such as your credit history and rating, the amount you want to borrow, and your total debt-to-income ratio. We then present you with a loan offer(s) based on what you can qualify for right now.
How Rates & Fees Work
Interest Rate
What you pay in interest annually, shown as a percentage of the total amount borrowed.
Origination Fee
One-time fee of 2-6% of your loan amount based on your credit rating, and charged only when you receive your loan.
Annual Percentage Rate (APR)
The total annual cost of your loan, including interest rate and origination fee, and the true cost of borrowing money. Use APR to compare loan costs across lenders.
Monthly Payment Examples
| Term | Loan Amount | Interest Rate | Origination Fee | APR | Amount Deposited | Monthly Payment |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 36 Months | $6,000 | 9.56% | $300 | 13.11% | $5,700 | $192.37 |
| 60 Months | $20,000 | 10.19% | $1,200 | 12.90% | $18,800 | $462.81 |
Your actual monthly payment will vary based on the terms and conditions of your loan offer (which includes your APR, loan amount, term, and origination fee). The example above is provided for illustrative purposes only; your experience may be different.

What’s the best way to compare loan offers?
The best way to do compare loan offers from different lenders is by looking at the annual percentage rate (APR) for each. APR is the best way to quickly compare the total annual cost to borrow money from different lenders because APR includes all finance charges: interest rate and fees.
A no-fee or low-interest rate loan may look appealing at first sight. However, it’s important you carefully consider the total cost of borrowing money (which means all finance charges, not just interest rate alone) before settling on a loan offer.

What’s the difference between a fixed rate and a variable rate?
The difference between a fixed rate loan and a variable rate loan is the interest rate on a fixed rate loan won’t change, while it will on a variable rate loan. All personal loans offered by LendingClub are fixed rate loans.
With a fixed rate loan, your interest rate, APR, and monthly payment are fixed, meaning these all remain the same over the course of your loan. On a variable rate loan, the interest and APR may change as the market interest rate changes, resulting in you paying more (or less) interest from month-to-month as well as fluctuations in your monthly payment.

What’s the difference between a loan origination fee and an application fee?
The biggest difference is a loan application fee is charged (and paid) when you apply for a loan (before you know if your loan will be approved), and an origination fee happens only when you receive your loan funds after you’ve been approved.
Some lenders require you pay an application fee (or, broker fee) simply to apply for their loan. Typically, application fees are non-refundable, even if a lender later decides to decline your loan application. While LendingClub does not charge an application fee on any of its loans, we do charge an origination fee which ranges from 3-6% of your total loan amount (depending on your credit).

What happens if I want to pay my loan off early?
You can make extra payments on your loan, or pay off your loan in full, at any time with no additional charges or prepayment penalties. If you’re able to, we encourage you to pay your loan off early because you’ll save money on the interest charges that you did not incur due to your early payoff.
