Share Secured Loans4

Build your credit score while you keep your money safe. Share Secured Loans let you borrow against funds already in your account. It’s a secure, low-risk way to grow your credit and your savings. You pledge a matching amount of funds in your account. We put these funds on hold and provide you a loan for the amount. As you repay your loan, the paid amount (minus interest) becomes available in your account.

Pay the way that works best for you. Use digital banking, pay over the phone, or pay in person. You may even skip a payment if you need flexibility.

  • Digital banking: Log in to your digital banking profile to manage your loan payments on the go.
  • Find a branch: Pay in person at any branch.
