What Dino Loan is
Dino Loan runs dinoloan.com, a loan matching service. Dino Loan is not a lender, a loan broker or an agent of any lender or loan broker.
Our relationship with lenders
Today our only lender partner is a licensed lender in California. See our Lender Partners page.
Not an offer of credit
This website is not an offer of credit and is not a solicitation to lend. A request on Dino Loan is not a loan application.
Loan amounts
You can ask for $100 to $5,000 on Dino Loan. Today our lender partner offers short term loans of $100 to $255 in California, so you may be offered less than you ask for, or no loan at all. Lenders decide the amount they offer.
No fee to use Dino Loan
Dino Loan never charges you, whether or not you are matched, and whether or not you take a loan.
How your request is shared
When you submit a request, it may be shared with one or more lenders and lending partners in our network so they can review it and decide whether to offer you a loan. We do not share your information with marketing partners.
How we are paid
Lenders and lending partners pay us for the requests we send them. Different partners may pay different amounts, and the order in which partners see your request may depend on what they pay. You may not be matched with the lender that has the best terms for you. See our Ad Disclosure.
No guarantee
There is no guarantee that you will be matched with a lender, that a lender will approve you, or that you will be offered the amount you asked for.
Credit checks
Dino Loan does not check your credit. Lenders may check your credit to decide whether to lend to you or to verify your information. By submitting a request, you allow them to do this.
Short term loans
Short term, small dollar loans are expensive and are meant for short term needs. They should not be used as a long term answer to money problems. If you are struggling with debt, consider free or low cost help from a nonprofit credit counselor. You can find one at nfcc.org.
