Amazon Lending....
 

This is new to me. I had an offer today and after reading the terms jumped on it. I "applied" about 6:30pm and by about 8:30 I had received an email saying the loan along with my weekly funds were disbursed.

My normal disbursement would be this sunday. I was just wondering if anyone knows if I will still get that disbursement or is my new disbursement schedule starting today?

Re: Amazon Lending....
 

Was this on a stealth account, or your real account?

My GUESS is if the email said the funds were disbursed, then it would have changed the disbursement day to today. Does the balance still show up on your Seller Central screen?

Re: Amazon Lending....
 

Curious, can you give ball park figure on what they approved you for?

Re: Amazon Lending....
 

Do you have to have a pro seller acct for this funding?

Re: Amazon Lending....
 

what offer? never heard of this before... can you cut paste part of email which you received from amz ?

Re: Amazon Lending....
 

I had this on one of my accounts. They loaned my $25,000. You get it with your next disbursement.

Re: Amazon Lending....
 

What's their interest rate? That's not a petty amount!

Re: Amazon Lending....
 

wait ! amazon give you cash ? and you repay with interest... ???

Re: Amazon Lending....
 

They gave me 1k for 6 months....about 40$ in interest or I could of done 4 months for about 23$ interest. Ive been offering co-workers 30$ for 1k for 30days haha....so this is a better deal.

Started last year. However invite only. Time factor to accept. Response time of approval/denial usually quick.

Offers have been quiet until recently. Restarted some weeks back.

Wonder if they (amazon) are looking forwards to selling season of the holidays?

Loans were either 4 months at 10.9% or 6 months at 12.9%

Possible to pay-out earlier too.

Woah there horsey, don't give out too much false hope. You're a bigger seller than a lot of the guys on here. Most people won't qualify for 25k ^^

Re: Amazon Lending....
 

I have actually seen these offers on a couple of my stealths and have never responded. I thought for sure Amazon would be asking for SSN's and other information. I mean, who is going to loan you money without verification of your identity and credit history?

Even if they don't, I would be worried about the legality of accepting such a loan.

Re: Amazon Lending....
 

I would like to know if they pulled my credit or will report it?

Re: Amazon Lending....
 

Did you READ the fine print?

Suggest you do a free credit score report as soon as possible.

Always be careful with your finances.

Re: Amazon Lending....
 

For 25k I would think yes - credit pulled.

Re: Amazon Lending....
 

user3657 did not state that amount though.

It was Kelly441.

They do a credit check.

:juggle:

Re: Amazon Lending....
 

I don't think they checked my credit, it was horrible

Re: Amazon Lending....
 

It's a money talks scenario Kelly, you are obviously pulling in big enough sales for Amazon to be as sure as they ever need to be that they can get their money back, they don't need to do a credit check, they know you can afford it from your sales.

Re: Amazon Lending....
 

They dont pull credit. I've gotten 7 loans since this post..not a single credit pull.

Re: Amazon Lending....
 

On any of the 7 did they call for additional information or deny any of them? What was the highest amount you asked for?
