Inside a Kevin personal loan
A Kevin personal loan is an installment loan: a lump sum, then fixed monthly payments over a set term, priced off your credit rather than its 161 residents. Because pricing is borrower-level, two people in Kevin can be quoted different APRs on the same amount and term. Shortening the term on a Kevin loan raises the monthly payment but cuts the interest; lengthening it does the reverse.
