Frequently Asked Questions

I've been declined elsewhere — is it still worth submitting?
Possibly. Lenders in our network don't all use identical criteria, and some do consider applicants with weaker credit. There's no guarantee of a match, but submitting costs nothing and commits you to nothing.
Does Opalvesta lend the money itself?
No. Requests submitted through Opalvesta go to lenders in our network — approval, rate, and funding decisions belong to whichever one responds, not to us.
What does submitting cost?
Nothing. If you accept a lender's offer, any fees tied to it are the lender's and will be disclosed before you agree to anything.
What's the actual amount range?
Requests can be submitted for $100 to $5000. Whether you're offered anything in that range depends entirely on the lender's own criteria.
What are lenders usually looking for?
Baseline requirements vary, but most expect you to be 18 or older, a U.S. resident in a state where this is offered, have a bank account, and show some regular income. Meeting those isn't a guarantee — each lender still reviews on its own.
