The company processed the paperwork within 24 hours.

The company processed the paperwork quickly, and the funds required arrived on time. Also, I attempted to call the number, and received a prompt return call who could respond to my initial questions. Thanks for providing this reliable service.

Everything was extremely user friendly. I was able to get approved for my loan and funds in my account all within an hour or two. The prices are very fair and I’m extremely satisfied with my experience. I will be using Lantern Financial again in the future

Seamless and Simple

Seamless and simple! Finally, a platform that supports XRP-backed loans and that is based and regulated in the U.S. Really great and super easy to use. Also, payment is quick and can be received in US$. Thank you.

Easy process but shady payment options

Easy process but shady payment options. You can set up auto pay for interest only. Besides that it's you to pay the principle back on time so you don't lose your collateral

Reply from Lantern Finance

Hey there, appreciate the feedback! However, to be clear, we don't have auto-pay for principal because our loans are interest-only. Basically, you don't need to pay the principal until the maturity date which is 12 months after your loan.

For your interest which is due each month, you can set up autopay since the amount is pre-determined. For principal, there is no pre-determined amount until loan maturity, so there is no amount that you can auto-pay, since you can choose to pay back different amounts (or none) each month. Also, you automatically get reminders that maturity is coming up, several times weeks before it is due. Even then, you are able to refinance to keep the loan for another 12 months, or just pay it off to release your collateral.

Hope that makes sense.

My Crypto loan experience 👌

My experience with Lantern Finance has been very positive. The interface is clean, intuitive, and easy to navigate. The onboarding flow is smooth, with registration and verification processed far faster than expected. Funding, loan deposits, and repayment confirmations were handled quickly, outperforming the speed of most traditional banks.
