Please read these Terms & Conditions in full before using this Site. If you do not agree with this Company’s Terms & Conditions, do not continue to use this Site or seek its services.

Start.Credit is NOT a lender and does not broker loans. This Company seeks to connect You with prospective lenders or lending partners and does not guarantee that You will be offered a loan. We also do not guarantee the amount of your loan. The information you provide will be shared with more than one lender or lending partner.

Your use of this Company’s services includes providing relevant and necessary information which may include, but is not limited to: your name, date of birth, telephone number, physical address, Social Security number, driver’s license number and state, email address, employment information, active military information, information about home ownership, citizenship status, frequency and amount of paychecks, and information about your banking account. The information you provide will be used to connect you with prospective lenders or lending partners. Submitting your information to this Site also means you are allowing this Company and third party lenders or lending partners to contact you about loans and related products and services.

Once your information is submitted, you will be shown loan options from multiple lenders. When you choose a loan option, you will be redirected to a third party lender’s or lending partner’s website where you will be able to complete a loan application. Once submitted, the application will be reviewed by a third party lender or lending partner who will then determine if you meet their requirements for a loan. This lender or lending partner may seek to verify your identity and may perform a credit check through a credit bureau. Submission of your information constitutes an agreement for your information to be used in these ways. If you are approved for a loan, you will be presented with a loan agreement which discloses the terms of your loan.

This Company cannot guarantee that the loan options that you will receive are the best available. Also, this Company cannot guarantee the product, price, rates, fees, availability or any other terms of a third party’s loan products and services. If you enter into a loan agreement between You and your lender, this Company is not involved with that agreement. Your interactions with your lender are governed by the lender’s Privacy Policy, terms, conditions, and other policies. Questions, issues, and problems regarding your loan agreement should be directed to your lender directly and not to this Company.

By submitting your information to Start.Credit, you are providing your express written consent under the Fair Credit Report Act for Start.Credit and its third party business partner(s) with whom you are matched to obtain your consumer credit profile or other information from contracted Credit Bureau's associated with your inquiry. The "soft pull" of your credit score that Start.Credit may initiate will not affect your credit score. Credit inquires by selected lenders or lending partners and affiliates may impact your credit score.

By submitting your information to Start.Credit, you are providing your express written consent under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act to receive telemarketing calls, text messages, SMS messages, or other activities governed by TCPA, whether from Start.Credit or any third party company.
