- No origination fees or prepayment penalties, allowing you to pay down or fully clear your loan early without incurring extra costs

- Unsecured loan—you won’t need to use your home or car as collateral, simplifying the borrowing process
- Easy account management through U.S. Bank’s online and mobile tools; set up autopay, check balances, or make extra payments at your convenience
Why Consider a Personal Loan?
Here are common reasons U.S. consumers choose a U.S. Bank Personal Loan:
- Consolidate high-interest debt like credit cards into a single, predictable monthly payment
- Use funds for a designated purpose, such as home renovation, wedding, vacation, or education
- Avoid the uncertainty of variable credit by opting for fixed monthly installments
- Improve financial clarity, with a set payoff timeline and total cost upfront
- Strengthen your credit profile, through consistent on-time payments reported to bureaus
What to Know Before You Apply
Here are key details to review before starting your application:
- Account requirement: Non-customers have a $25,000 borrowing limit and may benefit from opening a U.S. Bank checking account
- Credit criteria: Approval depends on credit score, debt-to-income ratio, and history—generally a score of 680+ is recommended
- Fixed-rate structure: Your rate stays the same throughout the term, making repayments stable and predictable
- Term length choice: Shorter terms reduce total interest but raise monthly payments—balance based on your budget
- No collateral needed: Loans are unsecured and don’t require home valuation or vehicle inspection
- Payment flexibility: Early payments are accepted without charge, offering a way to reduce interest
- Autopay discount: Set up automatic payments from a linked checking or savings account to earn a 0.50% APR discount
