Banks: You may want to turn to a bank for a personal loan, especially if you already have an account there. Funding times for banks usually range from 1 to 7 business days once approved.
Credit unions: You might benefit from a personal loan from a credit union if you’re already a member of one. Like banks, credit unions typically fund loans 1 to 7 business days after approval.
Online lenders: Online lenders tend to offer the fastest funding times — with some, you can get money the same day you apply. If you need cash fast, an online lender may be the best option.
