The money collects interest while in the account, which will offset the interest charged on the loan. Build good credit while getting a low rate that won’t break the bank. It works much like a personal loan and is available to help people with a variety of expenses. When the loan is paid off, you can utilize the funds in your account or the certificate can be redeemed.
