No, that is the best part. The loan proceeds are placed into a Patelco ScoreUp Savings Account and placed on hold at funding. For example, if the ScoreUp loan is funded for $500, a $500 ScoreUp Savings Account will be opened with $500 on hold. Those funds will not be available for withdrawal until the loan is paid in full
There are no fees: no late fees, origination fees, processing fees, or pre-payment penalties.
Automatic payments are required from a Patelco Account. You can use a checking, savings, or money market account.
You can close your loan at any time, but you will not get all the credit building benefits. There are two ways to do this:
If a ScoreUp Loan goes 25 days past the due date, the loan will automatically be closed and paid in full using the funds in the ScoreUp Savings Account (interest will not be applied for that period). Any remaining funds from your ScoreUp Savings Account will be transferred to your membership savings account. This helps ensure that your credit isn’t impacted by the delinquency.
At Patelco, we put your financial wellbeing first and provide free financial coaching with a Patelco Certified Financial Specialist. Your financial specialist can help you create a personalized strategy so you can feel in control of your money and track your progress.
