Where to Get a Personal Loan
Personal loans are available from three main sources: banks, credit unions, and online lenders. Each one comes with different rates, approval requirements, and funding timelines. The average personal loan interest rate sits at about 12.26% as of early 2026, but your actual rate will depend on your credit score, the lender you choose, and your loan terms. Banks currently average around 12.06%, credit unions around 10.72%, and online lenders range from roughly 6.49% to 35.99%. This guide walks through where to get a personal loan, what each lender type offers, and how to pick the right one for your financial situation.
