Frequently Asked Questions

Question

WHO IS EAGLE LOAN/ EAGLE FINANCE COMPANY (“EAGLE”)?

Answer

It may be easier to start by saying who Eagle is NOT. We are not a cash advance operation, “payday lender” or a “title” lender. Those businesses continue to be under government scrutiny currently and sometimes consumer finance companies like Eagle are incorrectly rolled into that same category. This is likely because we are both not traditional banks, but both still lend money. However, the similarities end there.

Eagle is a traditional consumer finance company. The business model (and rates) of traditional finance companies have fundamentally not changed in over 130 years. With Eagle, you avoid the typical red-tape that banks subject you to in order to get a small loan.

Our primary business is simple- personal loans to individuals. Typically, loans are $1,000-$10,000 and paid off in 8-24 months. People use Eagle for things as necessary and immediate as paying bills, or as discretionary as taking a dream vacation. Some other examples are: repairing a vehicle, buying furniture, home repair, moving expenses, and rebuilding personal credit.

Question

WHO IS A “TYPICAL” EAGLE CUSTOMER?

Answer

In short, Middle America. Most of our customers have good paying jobs. Some of our customers have had credit bureau issues because of a previous life situation: unexpected medical expense, job loss, divorce, sudden income decrease, or maybe even just simple poor financial planning. These individuals may not be able to borrow money at a traditional bank or credit card company.

Other customers simply like the ease and convenience of doing business with Eagle. As such, many of our existing customers are repeat customers and use Eagle in the same fashion many Americans responsibly use credit cards today.

Eagle makes credit available to middle America at traditional finance company rates. This does not mean we are able to help everyone with a loan.

Note

Late Payments Hurt Your Credit Score
Please be aware that missing a payment or making a late payment can negatively impact your credit score. To protect yourself and your credit history, make sure you only accept loan terms that you can afford to repay.
