‡‡ Happy Money works with Lending Partners who originate loans. Individual borrowers must be at least 18 years old and have a valid social security number and a valid checking account. All loans are subject to credit review and approval. Your actual rate depends upon credit score, loan amount, loan term, credit usage, credit history, and state of residence. Currently, loans are not offered in: IA. Our mailing address is Happy Money, 21515 Hawthorne Blvd, Suite 200, Torrance, CA 90503.

* Checking your rate generates a soft credit inquiry that is only visible to you. A hard credit inquiry that can affect your credit score appears when your loan is issued.

** Your repayment terms will depend on your interest rate, origination fee, loan amount, and loan term. Example — A loan of $16,000 at 11.84% will result in 48 monthly payments of $408.00.

‡ Happy Money’s lending partners offer fixed rates between 8.95% Annual Percentage Rate (APR) and 35.99% APR for loan amounts from $5,000 to $50,000. The minimum rate for loan amounts above $15,000 is 11.09% APR. The minimum loan amount and APR may vary in certain states. The interest rate and Annual Percentage Rate (APR) shown reflect a discount for enrolling in automatic payments (“Autopay”). To receive and keep this discounted rate, you must enroll in Autopay and maintain automatic payments. Rates shown reflect an autopay discount. Without Autopay enrollment, your rate and APR will be higher. Rates depicted are accurate as of July 8, 2026. Please see our Rates and Terms page for specific details.

† The origination fee is charged by the lender who funds and issues your loan through our platform. Lenders may charge late, bounced check, failed ACH, or other fees. The origination fee is based on your loan amount, term, and credit quality. This one-time fee is deducted from your loan proceeds when your loan is issued.

†† Impact to credit score may vary, and some users’ credit scores may not improve. Results depend on many factors including whether your loan payments are on time, the status of your other, non-Happy Money accounts, and financial history.

***To determine whether refinancing may result in savings, consumers should compare the APR, fees, and remaining repayment term of their existing loan(s) with the APR, fees, and repayment term of a Happy Money loan. Actual savings will vary based on individual circumstances and loan terms. Extending the repayment term or reducing the monthly payment may increase the total amount of interest paid over time.
