Lendsqr is not a lender and cannot provide loans directly. Our platform functions as a bridge connecting you with licensed lenders who may offer personal loans depending on their products. We showcase a list of these lenders and the loan options they provide.

While you can initiate the application process on Lendsqr, it's important to understand this simply starts the process with your chosen lender, not with Lendsqr.
