Back to Loan Overview

 

Auxmoney offers personal loans through its peer-to-peer lending marketplace.

A personal loan is a money borrowed from a financial institution for the borrower’s personal use. It is an unsecured loan and doesn’t require collateral or a co-signer/guarantor to issue the loan. You can use an unsecured personal loan to consolidate debt or finance large purchases. Interest rates and terms can vary based on your credit score and other factors.

Peer-to-peer lending, also abbreviated as P2P lending, is the practice of lending money to individuals or businesses through online services that match lenders with borrowers. Peer-to-peer lending companies often offer their services online and attempt to operate with lower overhead, allowing them to provide their services at a lower cost than traditional financial institutions.

Before registration – good to know

  • You can get a loan with a low credit score (Intern or Schufa)
  • A stable income is not necessary, but you need to prove your ability to repay the loan
  • A co-signer/guarantor or an additional borrower cannot be declared to avoid administrative barriers
  • Your personal data are required for registration
  • To conclude the loan your identification (Postident) and the signed contract will suffice

Granting of credit

More than half of all loan requests are approved within 2 hours by private lenders. If your loan is not approved immediately, your loan request will remain on the market for up to 20 days for another private lender to take on the loan.
