How personal loans work in Alba

A Alba personal loan is an installment loan: a lump sum, then fixed monthly payments over a set term, priced off your credit rather than its 137 residents. Because pricing is borrower-level, two people in Alba can be quoted different APRs on the same amount and term. A longer term lowers the monthly payment on a Alba loan but raises total interest, so the smallest payment is not the cheapest loan.
