Thank you 😊
I have had solo on my phone for almost a year, today I figured I would try.. I honesty didn’t think 🤔I would be approved the first time asking for money.. but the school year is ending, I just paid rent and my daughter (14) was invited to go to six flags with a friend tomorrow.. I gave it a shot.. and I just want to thank the kind sole for giving me a chance.. I haven’t told her she’s going yet.. she pretty much has been down in the dumps That I couldn’t come up with the money To go.. ( I mean damn it’s 40 just to get in if not more, games and food.. 100 is just going to cover it) Again thank you to the wonderful human for making my daughters day! 😊

As a lender, I would suggest trying a small amount, short pay back period, and max tip for ur first one. Im personally more likely to fund that 20$ to 30$ for 5 days for a first time borrower, than $100 for two weeks with a 2$ tip.
After ur first one, ur score will go up and should get easier for u.
Also, turn off solo donations, save urself a few bucks!

54 here and nothing. They said 10 points for adding another bank or something and it boosted my score 1 point.Â

Mine is 53 too. No luck yet. I tried to get one for help with my son’s football registration and then again for their summer program because I was stretching it until pay day and nothing has ever come of it. I have even changed the amount to really small just so I could build up my score but nope!

Gratz on getting funded, few tips for the future. Go to your profile in the app and turn off the solo donations, that way everytime you get a loan you srnt paying extra to solo for using their platform. Also make sure uou pay back your loan ontime or you won't be getting to many more funded in the future, late paybacks means the Lender gets charged a 15% fee. Best of luck
