This week's personal loan rates rise for 3- and 5-year loans

Borrowers with good credit seeking personal loans during the past seven days prequalified for rates that were higher for 3- and 5-year loans when compared to fixed-rate loans for the seven days before.

For borrowers with credit scores of 720 or higher who used the Credible marketplace to select a lender between June 17 and June 23:

Personal loans have become a popular way to consolidate debt and pay off credit card debt and other loans. They can also be used to cover unexpected and emergency expenses like medical bills, take care of a major purchase, or fund home improvement projects.

Average personal loan interest rates have increased over the last seven days for 3- and 5-year loans. While 3-year loan rates rose by 0.21 percentage points, rates on 5-year loans increased by 0.90 percentage points. Interest rates for 3- and 5-year terms remain higher than they were this time last year, up 0.51 percentage points for 3- year terms and up 0.95 percentage points for 5-year terms.

Still, borrowers can take advantage of interest savings with a 3- or 5-year personal loan, as both loan terms offer lower interest rates on average than higher-cost borrowing options such as credit cards. 

But whether a personal loan is right for you depends on multiple factors, including what rate you can qualify for, which is largely based on your credit score. Comparing multiple lenders and their rates helps ensure you get the best personal loan for your needs. 

Before applying for a personal loan, use a personal loan marketplace like Credible to comparison shop.

Here are the latest trends in personal loan interest rates from the Credible marketplace, updated weekly.

The chart above shows average prequalified rates for borrowers with credit scores of 720 or higher who used the Credible marketplace to select a lender. 

For the month of May 2024:

Rates on personal loans vary considerably by credit score and loan term. If you're curious about what kind of personal loan rates you may qualify for, you can use an online tool like Credible to compare options from different private lenders.

All Credible marketplace lenders offer fixed-rate loans at competitive rates. Because lenders use different methods to evaluate borrowers, it’s a good idea to request personal loan rates from multiple lenders so you can compare your options.

In May, the average prequalified rate selected by borrowers was: 

Depending on factors such as your credit score, which type of personal loan you’re seeking and the loan repayment term, the interest rate can differ. 

As shown in the chart above, a good credit score can mean a lower interest rate, and rates tend to be higher on loans with fixed interest rates and longer repayment terms. 

A lot happened this week in the world of interest rates.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reported on Wednesday that inflation slowed in May, raising hopes for multiple interest rate cuts in 2024. Later that day, the Fed concluded its June meeting, signaling one cut by the end of the year while holding rates steady. As of now, we anticipate one 25 basis point (0.25 percentage points) cut this year, and a 100 basis point (1 percentage point) cut in 2025.

Currently sitting at 5.25% to 5.50%, the federal funds rate is the highest it's been since 2001. Sticky inflation and low unemployment had made any cuts seem unlikely as of a week ago. But the news may deliver relief for borrowers burdened with high interest costs and those considering a loan. However, demand for personal loans has increased and all signs point to this trend continuing, while debt levels and delinquency rates have risen as well. This may indicate more consumers will struggle to be approved at low rates or at all — even if we see rates fall. 

Many factors influence the interest rate a lender might offer you on a personal loan. But you can take some steps to boost your chances of getting a lower interest rate. Here are some tactics to try.

Generally, people with higher credit scores qualify for lower interest rates. Steps that can help you improve your credit score over time include:

Personal loan repayment terms can vary from one to several years. Generally, shorter terms come with lower interest rates, since the lender’s money is at risk for a shorter period of time.

If your financial situation allows, applying for a shorter term could help you score a lower interest rate. Keep in mind the shorter term doesn’t just benefit the lender – by choosing a shorter repayment term, you’ll pay less interest over the life of the loan.

You may be familiar with the concept of a cosigner if you have student loans. If your credit isn’t good enough to qualify for the best personal loan interest rates, finding a cosigner with good credit could help you secure a lower interest rate.

Just remember, if you default on the loan, your cosigner will be on the hook to repay it. And cosigning for a loan could also affect their credit score.

Before applying for a personal loan, it’s a good idea to shop around and compare offers from several different lenders to get the lowest rates. Online lenders typically offer the most competitive rates – and can be quicker to disburse your loan than a brick-and-mortar establishment. 

But don’t worry, comparing rates and terms doesn’t have to be a time-consuming process.

Credible makes it easy. Just enter how much you want to borrow and you’ll be able to compare multiple lenders to choose the one that makes the most sense for you.

Credible is a multi-lender marketplace that empowers consumers to discover financial products that are the best fit for their unique circumstances. Credible’s integrations with leading lenders and credit bureaus allow consumers to quickly compare accurate, personalized loan options – without putting their personal information at risk or affecting their credit score.
