What a Alliance borrower is actually offered

Most loans made to Alliance's 21,525 residents are unsecured, so nothing is pledged and the lender relies on your credit history. The APR tracks your credit score rather than Alliance's rank of 78th in Ohio: a strong file may earn a single-digit rate, while damaged credit can push the rate far higher. A longer term lowers the monthly payment on a Alliance loan but raises total interest, so the smallest payment is not the cheapest loan.
