Frequently asked questions

What does Sunbit cost to open?+

Sunbit charges no origination fee, either the fixed fee or the percentage of the amount. The cost sits in the rate you pay, which runs 0% to 35.99% depending on the plan and your circumstances. Early repayment is free, so clearing a plan ahead of schedule adds nothing.

How much can I borrow from Sunbit?+

Loans run $50 to $20,000 and are repaid over terms of 3 to 72. That spread covers everything from a small purchase to a larger bill, but it sits below the €2,630.21 seen across the wider personal loan market.

Is Sunbit regulated?+

Sunbit operates in the US under NMLS (US nationwide licensing system) / Utah Division of Financial Institutions, and holds an NMLS (broker registration). The broker registration reference is 1760582, and the operator is Sunbit Now, LLC.

What credit check does Sunbit use?+

Sunbit uses a soft prequal, so you can see whether you are likely to qualify without the full credit search a hard check brings. Eligibility also asks for a valid email, a mobile number and a street or AFO/APO address.

Who can apply to Sunbit?+

Applicants must be adults and US residents who hold a valid email, mobile phone number and a street or AFO/APO address. A bank-issued debit card is also needed. Support runs on phone, chat and help centre if anything is unclear before you start.

What kinds of loan does Sunbit offer?+

Sunbit covers personal loans, buy now pay later and a credit line, under a fixed rate model. The credit line is a listed credit line, so you can borrow repeatedly against a limit rather than taking a new plan for each purchase.

Can I repay a Sunbit plan early?+

Yes. Early repayment is free, which helps anyone who expects to settle a plan sooner than the agreed schedule. Since rates are fixed, the cost of a plan does not drift upward while it runs.

What does a Sunbit plan cost in practice?+

Sunbit publishes a representative example: a purchase financed with a first payment at checkout, then monthly payments across a term within 3 to 72. The stated total cost sits above the purchase price once the interest on the plan is added.
