Complete Guide to Installment Loans

Installment loans provide a flexible financing solution for those who need to borrow larger amounts and prefer to repay over time. Unlike Cash loans that require full repayment on your next payday, installment loans let you spread payments over several months, making them more manageable for your budget.

What is an Installment Loan?

An installment loan is a type of loan where you borrow a fixed amount of money upfront and repay it through scheduled, equal payments over a set period of time. Each payment typically includes both principal (the amount borrowed) and interest.

Key Characteristics:

  • Fixed loan amount: You receive the full amount at once
  • Scheduled payments: Regular monthly or bi-weekly payments
  • Set repayment term: Usually 3, 6, 9, or 12 months
  • Predictable costs: You know exactly what you'll pay each period
  • Amortizing structure: Each payment reduces your principal balance
