Real questions

Stuff people actually ask us

Still curious after this? Call or text us at (706) 786-9330 and a real person will answer.

Can I get a personal loan with no credit history?

Often, yes. Several of our lending partners look at income, employment and bank activity, not just a score. A thin file is not a dealbreaker. We will tell you honestly which options fit before you commit to anything.

Do I need a cosigner?

Not always. Plenty of applicants qualify on their own. If a cosigner would unlock a better rate or a higher amount, we will say so, but it is your call and never a requirement to apply.

Will checking eligibility affect my credit score?

No. Applying with us does not touch your score. A lender only runs a hard credit check once you pick an offer and decide to move forward.

How fast can I get funded?

Most people hear back the same day. Once you sign, funds usually land in your bank within one to three business days depending on the lender.

Can I qualify with 1099 or gig income?

Yes. Freelance, contract, delivery, rideshare, creator income. We work with lenders who understand that money does not always arrive as a W2. Bank statements or tax returns usually do the trick.

What can I use a personal loan for?

Almost anything. Paying off cards, moving, medical bills, a wedding, a home project. The only real no is using it for anything illegal or for a down payment where the lender says no.

Heads up: Olive Branch Capital is a brokerage. We match you with lending partners and may receive compensation from them when a loan closes. That never changes your cost, and it never decides which option we recommend. All loans are subject to approval. Approval, rates and terms are decided by the lender. Availability varies by lender and location. Read our full disclosures.

Ready when you are.

Takes about five minutes. No credit hit for applying. Just a straight answer from real people.
