How a personal loan works in Delia
Most loans offered to Delia residents are unsecured, meaning no collateral is pledged and the lender relies on your credit history instead. That is why the quoted APR moves so much with your credit score: a borrower with excellent credit may see a single-digit APR, while a borrower with damaged credit may see rates in the high twenties or thirties. Checking your credit report before you apply — and disputing any error — is the highest-leverage step you can take.
