Frequently Asked Questions

My credit isn't great, or I've been turned down elsewhere — is this worth trying?
Possibly — lenders in our network set their own criteria, and some do consider applicants with less-than-perfect credit. We can't promise you'll be matched, but sending a request through Rowanvela is free and doesn't commit you to anything.
Will this show up on my credit report?
Sending a request through Rowanvela on its own doesn't touch your score. If a lender you're matched with runs a credit check, that's their process — see Credit Authorization for how that works.
Is Rowanvela actually the one lending me money?
No — Rowanvela passes your request to lenders in our network. Whichever one reaches out to you is the one deciding on approval, rate, and terms, not us.
Does submitting a request cost me anything?
No. Sending a request through Rowanvela is free. If you do accept a loan, whatever fees come with it are the lender's, and they'll show you those before you agree to anything.
How much can I ask for?
Anywhere from $100 to $5000. What you're actually offered, if anyone offers, is up to that lender's own criteria — we don't set it.
