From application to funding — a step-by-step guide to the Rise Credit loan process.

The Process

Get a Rise Loan in 4 Steps

Rise's online application takes minutes. Most applicants receive a decision instantly and funds as soon as the next business day.

1

Fill Out the Online Application

Visit risecredit.com and complete the secure application in about 5 minutes. You'll provide your name, address, income, and Social Security number. This step uses a soft credit pull that does not affect your score.

2

Receive an Instant Decision

Rise's automated system reviews your application in minutes. You'll see any loan offers you qualify for, including the loan amount, APR, monthly payment, and total repayment amount.

3

Review and Accept Your Offer

Carefully review all terms before signing electronically. This triggers a hard credit pull. Remember: you have 5 business days to return the funds if you change your mind.

4

Receive Funds in Your Account

Applications approved before 6 PM ET on a business day are typically funded the next business day via ACH transfer to your checking account.
