Borrow money from people

Borrowers are Prosper members who want to borrow money from other people and get a better deal than the credit card or loan rates offered by banks.

Rates are low because Prosper lenders are people—like you—who want a fair shake from honest borrowers without all the fees and hassles of doing business with big banks.
