The anatomy of a Long Point personal loan

A Long Point personal loan is an installment loan: a lump sum, then fixed monthly payments over a set term, priced off your credit rather than its 200 residents. Federal Truth in Lending rules require a Long Point lender to disclose the APR and finance charge before you sign. Because the payment is fixed, the total cost of a Long Point loan is knowable in advance — unlike a revolving card balance.
