What types of loans are available through P2P lending?

Peer-to-Peer (P2P) lending platforms typically offer a variety of loans to meet the needs of different applicants. Here are some common types:

  • Personal Loans: People can borrow money to pay for medical bills, home repairs, vacations, or other personal costs. These loans are given without requiring any assets as security.
  • Business Loans: Small business owners or entrepreneurs can borrow money to grow or expand their company, such as by paying employees' salaries, buying equipment, or opening a new branch. However, they need to share their business plans with the P2P lending institutions.
  • Debt Consolidation Loans: People who have multiple loans or credit card bills can take a new loan to combine all their payments into one. This makes managing payments easier.
  • Education Loans: Students studying courses or skills training programs can take loans to pay their tuition fees or living expenses. No security is required.
  • Home Improvement Loans: Homeowners can borrow money for major repairs or upgrades, such as kitchen remodelling or roof repairs. The loan amount matches the project size.
  • Special Event Loans: People planning big events like weddings or celebrations can borrow smaller amounts to cover specific costs. These loans are repaid quickly.
