Suitable For?

OneMain Financial is a direct lender with over 1,500 locations nationwide to serve its customers. Covering a wide variety of personal loan specialties, OneMain Financial also offers auto loans, auto refinancing loans and auto repair loans. Taking into account the interest rates offered (18.00%-35.99%) and the variable repayment terms, ranging from 24-60 months, customers can customize their loan to fit their needs. That being said, OneMain Financial is recommended for borrowers that need non-prime credit products.

As well as offering quick and simple loans, the company makes resources such as financially informative articles available. It also offers a free application to check if the customer prequalifies. Included in the company's perks and benefits are highlights such as:

• A network of branches throughout the US

Application Process

OneMain Financial's application process is simple and easy. Prospective borrowers fill out an online application form, or the application can be handled via phone or by visiting a branch office. The form involves providing basic personal, employment, and financial information. In order to complete the initial application, the customer needs to provide a copy of a government-issued ID, their proof of income, and proof of residence. Additional items may be requested, depending on the individual circumstances of the customer. The application is then processed.

If the initial application is approved, the borrower will be contacted by a local specialist to schedule an in-person appointment at a local branch. The borrower is generally required to come to the branch in order to verify the information provided and finalize the process. Where no local branch is accessible, the company is willing to accommodate the customer.
