Travel Tip: Plan for the “Hidden” Costs

A personal loan can impact your credit score in several ways:

  • Positive Impact: Making on-time payments can improve your credit score.
  • Negative Impact: Missing payments or defaulting on the loan can harm your credit score. Additionally, applying for a loan results in a hard inquiry, which may temporarily lower your score.

Loan use must meet any applicable credit union requirements and approval conditions. Contact us if you would like to confirm whether your personal loan can be used for your specific expense.
  • Secured Personal Loan: Requires collateral (e.g., a Certificate of Deposit (CD) or savings account). Offers lower interest rates due to reduced risk for the lender.
  • Unsecured Personal Loan: Does not require collateral. The interest rate is based on your creditworthiness and may be higher than secured loans.

Be ready to verify your identity and share details such as your name, member number, or application number so we can review your application with you.
