Getting an online loan? There are 5 important things you should keep in mind

TALA’s Loans Your Way has made it easier for Filipinos, especially the unbanked, to get access to credit when they need it the most. However, getting a microloan is only the beginning, as it is still up to the borrower to be responsible and make good use of it.

Here are 5 things to keep in mind before getting an online loan:

Have a well-defined reason for the loan. Start by determining whether a loan is even necessary for your current situation and if you can pay it back. Some loans are for personal, business, or emergency use, and having a clear idea of where you will spend the money will make it easier for you to decide if you’ll get a microloan. TALA’s Loans Your Way is made to make it easy to borrow money for any situation due to its speed, ease of use, and flexible repayment terms.

Make a SMART financial plan. When setting a financial goal, remember to make it Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, and Timebound (SMART). The SMART framework is an easy-to-use breakdown of the ideas you must consider to properly plan your finances — know the exact result you want to get (Specific), set financial milestones (Measurable), ensure it can be realistically achieved (Attainable), determine how important it is to you (Relevant), and know when you will meet the goal (Timebound).

Check interest rates, fees, and transparency. An interest rate is an amount that the bank or financial institution charges on top of the money loaned. Interest rates are a major part of the loans, and different financial institutions will have different rates and sometimes even charge hidden fees such as origination fees and late fees. Be sure to use a lender who provides all of the interest and fees up front, so you know what you are obligated to repay. TALA has no surprise fees and is compliant with the Truth in Lending Act (Republic Act No. 3765).

Plan your repayment date. One of the biggest worries when getting any kind of loan is being able to pay it back. Properly planning the repayment date by aligning it with when you will get your cash flow will ensure you don’t get stuck with too many obligations at once. With TALA’s Loans Your Way, you can align your repayment date to a time when you know you have money coming in such as your salary.

Seek trusted lenders only. Always consider the credibility of the lender. Check for feedback from other customers in places such as on Google Play and other review sites and look for lenders that are officially licensed or part of major trade organizations. TALA is a duly licensed financing company and is authorized by the SEC to operate an online lending platform and also a member of FinTech Alliance.ph. It is also highly trusted among its customers as it maintains a 95%+ repayment rate.
