How we make money

Lendarbor earns from one source: lenders and loan brokers pay for the loan requests visitors choose to send. Here is how that works and what it does not touch.

Who pays us

Lendarbor is free to read and free to use. The site is paid for by lenders and loan brokers. When you send a loan request through our form, the request goes to lenders and loan brokers who pay Lendarbor for it. The form is on /request-an-amount and at the end of articles and calculators.

If you never send a request, nobody pays us for your visit.

What it costs you

Nothing. You pay Lendarbor nothing to use the site, the calculators or the request form, and sending a request does not add anything to the cost of a loan you may later take. A loan itself has its own interest and fees, set by the lender. Read them in the lender’s disclosures before you agree to anything.

What we do not do

  • We do not show ads.
  • We do not use affiliate links or earn commissions when you click a link.
  • We do not publish sponsored articles or paid placements.
  • We do not rank, rate or review lenders.

What payment does not change

Lenders and loan brokers have no say in what we publish. Their payment does not change:

  • what our articles say about any loan amount or term;
  • what the calculators show;
  • the figures in the rates strip, which come from the Federal Reserve and the Bureau of Labor Statistics;
  • the agency releases in the headlines strip.

Our editorial policy explains how pages are researched and kept apart from the business side.

What we are and are not

Lendarbor is not a lender, a loan broker, a credit counselor or a government agency. We make no credit decisions and make no offers. The lenders and loan brokers who receive a request decide on their own whether to contact you and what to offer. The licensing page explains how to check a company’s license before you deal with it.

Your information

A loan request goes to lenders and loan brokers only because you sent it, with your consent to be contacted. You can withdraw that consent at any time. The privacy policy explains what the request contains, who receives it and your choices, including how to opt out of the sale of your information.
