OnDeck Loan Comparison Tool

We’re committed to transparency in lending.

We make loan terms easy to understand.

OnDeck’s loan comparison tool includes an easy-to-read disclosure that shows a breakdown of your cost of capital.3 It provides several ways to measure the cost of your loan so you can compare it to other offers.

Your loan comparison will show the following cost calculations:

  • Annual percentage rate.
  • Cost of financing.
  • Cents on the dollar.
  • Monthly payment amount.

This disclosure will also state whether the loan comes with any charges for early repayment and whether repaying early will potentially reduce your total interest charges.

How to read your OnDeck disclosure.

When you receive a loan offer from OnDeck, you’ll be shown a loan comparison disclosure like the one below. It provides you with the information you need to do an apples-to-apples comparison with other loan offers.

To read your loan disclosure, review each of the metrics for a cost breakdown of your loan. Compare each metric to those of other offers you may have received — for instance, you can compare loan offers according to annual percentage rate or average monthly payment.

Please note: The calculations below involve certain key assumptions about this loan, including that the loan is paid off in its entirety according to the agreed payment schedule and that no repayments are missed.

Estimated Dollar Cost of Financing

Metric Example

Interest Expense:

$14,544.30

Metric Explanation

This is the estimated dollar cost of our financing. This amount represents the total amount of interest and fees that you would pay based on the assumptions described at the top of this disclosure. The actual cost may vary depending on the amount you actually draw, and whether you take additional draws. Paying off the draw early may reduce the cost of financing; taking additional draws or taking longer to pay-off a draw may increase the cost of financing.

This amount does not include any fees or charges that you can avoid, such as late fees or returned payment fees.

Cents on the Dollar

Metric Example

Interest Expense:

$14,544.30

Credit Limit:

$50,000.00

Cents on the Dollar:
(excluding fees)

$0.29

Metric Explanation

This is the estimated amount of interest that you will pay per dollar borrowed on each draw. The cents on the dollar disclosure assumes that you will make a single draw of the full credit limit and repay that draw pursuant to the terms of your Business Line of Credit Agreement without taking additional draws. Taking additional draws prior to paying off your initial draw will change the cents on the dollar; therefore, the total cents on the dollar that you will pay depends on how long you take to repay the draw, and whether you take additional draws prior to the full repayment.

Estimated Payment

Estimated Payment Amount:

$5,378.69

Payment Frequency:

Monthly

Metric Explanation

Prepayment

If you pay off your financing early, you will not need to pay any portion of the finance charge other than unpaid interest accrued (if applicable). If you pay off the financing early you will not pay additional fees.

3 The Disbursement Amount is the amount of capital that a business actually receives and may be less than the Loan Amount because of origination fees, broker fees, or other amounts paid using funds from the Loan Amount.

4 APR is calculated here according to the principles of 12 C.F.R. § 1026 (Regulation Z), using 12 payment periods of equal length and 12 payment dates per year for monthly pay products, 52 payment periods of equal length and 52 payment dates per year for weekly pay products, and 252 payment dates per year for daily pay products.

5 Your business may incur other fees that are not a condition of borrowing, such as late payment fees or returned payment fees.
