Frequently Asked Questions

Secured or unsecured loan?

Secured personal loans use an asset (like a vehicle or property) as security, and lenders may offer lower interest rates, higher borrowing limits, and longer repayment terms. However, the asset may possibly be repossessed if you do not keep up on the payments for the loan.

Unsecured loans don't require security, which could provide more flexibility in fund usage and possibly a simpler application process. However, these loans typically have higher rates, lower limits, and possibly shorter terms.

Whether you need a secured on unsecured loan, MatchMe Money can help match you with loan options tailored to your financial situation.
