How does applying affect my credit?

Does checking whether I pre-qualify affect my credit?

Where the provider supports pre-qualification, it uses a soft pull and won't affect your credit score. If you choose an offer and complete that lender's full application, the lender may run a hard inquiry. Some providers do not offer pre-qualification. See soft pull.

What is the difference between See If You Pre-Qualify and No Credit Needed?

See If You Pre-Qualify reaches the lenders the store works with and can show pre-qualified amounts, subject to each lender's final approval. No Credit Needed skips the traditional lenders and goes straight to No Credit Needed providers, where several offers may show side by side.

What is No Credit Needed?

A path for shoppers with little or no credit history. No Credit Needed does not mean no review: the provider's full application may include a check with the credit bureaus and/or alternative credit sources. Many offers on this path are lease-to-own. Lease-to-own is a rental-purchase agreement, not a loan. Total cost is higher than the cash price.

What if I have no credit?

Choose No Credit Needed, or start with See If You Pre-Qualify and try No Credit Needed if you do not get an offer that works. Each provider sets its own requirements, and an offer is not guaranteed.

Is a pre-qualified amount an approval?

No. A pre-qualified amount is subject to the lender's final approval. The lender decides after you complete its full application, which may ask for employment details and a debit card and/or bank account. See how it works.

What options and offers might I get?

Is LendPro a lender?

No. LendPro is not a lender, not a financial institution and not a buy now, pay later company. It is the application the store uses to send your information to its providers. The provider you choose makes the decision, sets the terms and services your account. You repay the lender, or make lease payments to the lease-to-own provider.

What kinds of financing can I get?

It depends on the store and your credit. Options can include installment loans and credit programs from traditional lenders, and lease-to-own and other programs from No Credit Needed providers. Lease-to-own is a rental-purchase agreement, not a loan. Total cost is higher than the cash price. See lease-to-own.

I was declined. What now?

If one lender declines, offers from other lenders the store works with may still show, depending on how the store is set up. You can also try No Credit Needed. For the reasons behind a decision, contact the lender that made it. Other stores may work with different providers.

Can I apply for a higher amount?

Yes. Start a new application. Any new offer is subject to that provider's approval.

How do I find a store or my application?

How do I find a store that offers LendPro financing?

Who do I contact about my account, payments or a statement?

The lender or lease-to-own provider named in your agreement. LendPro is not a lender and cannot see or change your account, payments, due dates or payoff. For your order or delivery, contact the store.

Who is my lender?

Your lender or lease provider is the provider whose offer you accepted and whose agreement you signed. Its name is on your agreement and in the confirmation email or text you received. If you can't find it, ask the store where you bought.
