How personal loans work in Amalga

A Amalga personal loan is an installment loan: a lump sum, then fixed monthly payments over a set term, priced off your credit rather than its 507 residents. The rate you see advertised is a range, not a promise, until a lender reviews your file in Amalga. Shortening the term on a Amalga loan raises the monthly payment but cuts the interest; lengthening it does the reverse.
