Why Consider a Back to School Loan Instead of a Credit Card?
A Better Way to Budget: Although credit cards are a great way to cover unforseen or emergency expenses, back to school loans are a better way to help ease the financial burden of back to school shopping. A small personal loan such as a back to school loan will be specifically used for back to school expenses so you will be able to budget accordingly. By having a separate fund that is solely dedicated to your child’s back to school needs, your credit cards will remain free and open in case life throws any financial curveballs your way.
Get Extra Cash Fast: Unlike a credit card, personal loan funds are deposited directly into your bank account for you to use as you see fit. A personal loan can give you more flexibility than a credit card because you will be able to use cash if needed.
Flexible Repayment Terms: A back to school loan is a popular choice for most parents – especially those with more than one child heading back to school – because it gives them the flexibility to pay off these expenses overtime. Unlike with credit cards, Heritage Valley Federal Credit Union offers flexible repayment terms that can work for your budget. See if a back to school loan is the right choice for you today.
Competitive Interest Rates: Many parents utilize a back to school loan over credit cards to help fund their child’s back to school shopping needs because loan interest rates are competitive and many times, much lower than credit card interest rates. With the average credit card interest rate being 22.59% and the average small loan rate being 11.29%, the savings are clear.
