What Is a Personal Loan?
A personal loan is an unsecured installment loan, meaning no collateral is required. It provides a lump sum that you repay over a fixed term (typically 24 to 84 months) with a predictable, fixed interest rate. Lenders determine your APR based on credit score, income, and debt-to-income ratio (DTI). Borrowers with strong credit access the best rates, while options exist for those with lower scores.
Best forBest for funding large, one-time expenses or consolidating debt with predictable payments.

Local Minnesota Insights
Market Insight: Minnesota
Minnesota's lending market is notably more regulated than neighboring Wisconsin and South Dakota, where rate caps are looser or absent. That regulation keeps consumer costs lower but narrows lender options - making a comparison platform like Bromoney especially valuable for finding competitive offers within state-compliant limits.
Borrower Protection
Minnesota borrowers are protected by the Minnesota Department of Commerce, which licenses and supervises all consumer lenders operating in the state. Consumers can file complaints, verify lender licenses, and access financial education resources directly at mn.gov/commerce. The department enforces the Minnesota Consumer Small Loan Act to prevent predatory lending practices.

Questions about this product
What is the maximum personal loan amount available to Minnesota residents?
Under Minnesota law, small consumer loans are capped at $350 for short-term products. For installment personal loans from licensed lenders, amounts can reach $15,000 or more depending on the lender's license type and the borrower's creditworthiness. Always confirm the loan amount limit with your specific lender before applying.
Can I get a personal loan in Minnesota with bad credit?
Yes. Many lenders in the Bromoney network work with borrowers who have poor or limited credit history. Approval decisions often weigh income stability and debt-to-income ratio alongside credit score. A low score does not automatically disqualify an application.
How fast can I receive funds after approval in Minnesota?
Most direct lenders deposit funds via ACH transfer within 1 business day of approval. Some lenders offer same-day funding if the application is completed and approved before noon on a banking day. Timing depends on your bank's processing schedule.
Are personal loan rollovers allowed in Minnesota?
Minnesota law prohibits rolling over or refinancing a short-term consumer loan into a new loan to extend the repayment period. Borrowers struggling to repay should contact their lender directly to discuss a payment plan or contact the Minnesota Department of Commerce for guidance.
How does an unsecured personal loan work through BroMoney?
An unsecured personal loan requires no collateral and is repaid in fixed monthly installments. In practice, through BroMoney the process unfolds in four steps: (1) you complete one online form in about 5 minutes, (2) BroMoney matches your profile against its network of 1,200+ licensed lenders using a soft inquiry — a credit check that does not affect your FICO® score — (3) you review the offers returned and select one, (4) the chosen lender originates and funds the loan — typically within 1–3 business days, depending on the lender and your bank's processing schedule. The lender — not BroMoney — sets the APR (Annual Percentage Rate), loan amount, and repayment term, which vary by lender and state law. The final credit decision is subject to that lender's review criteria.
What do I need to qualify and get approved for a personal loan?
Lenders in BroMoney's network of 1,200+ licensed U.S. partners typically evaluate five core criteria when reviewing an application. Those criteria are: (1) credit score — FICO® scores as low as 500 are accepted by lenders on the BroMoney network, (2) verifiable income or employment, (3) DTI (debt-to-income ratio) within the lender's threshold, (4) age 18+, and (5) an active U.S. bank account. An ITIN is accepted in place of an SSN by select partners. BroMoney is a marketplace and does not approve or deny loans — each lender independently reviews your profile and sets its own criteria, so meeting general requirements does not guarantee approval.
