Quick answers
What people ask us
Does anyone look at my credit?
The lender might. A lender reviewing your form may check your credit, and it explains its process before you accept anything.
When could the cash show up?
That's down to the lender and your bank. Approved and accepted, some send it by the next business day; the offer gives the timing.
Who can ask?
Adults in the US, 18 and up, who have regular income, a checking account in their own name, plus a phone and email they check.
What if my score is low?
You can still ask. Partner lenders look at all credit histories. A lower score may bring fewer offers or higher costs, and approval is never a sure thing.
Does PistonFunds hand out the loan?
No. PistonFunds refers requests and is not a lender. Partner lenders receive your form, and if one makes an offer, the terms are theirs.
What's the smallest and largest amount?
$100 minimum, $5,000 maximum. A lender could come back with a different figure after reviewing.
Minutes, not an afternoon.
Ask once for $100 – $5,000, and partner lenders handle the rest.
