Disclosures
1You must be an eligible Basic Card Member to apply for a Personal Loan. Your offer is based on your creditworthiness and other eligibility factors at the time you check for an offer. Offer availability is subject to change. Not all Card Members will be eligible for the lowest APR, the highest loan amount, or the same repayment period options. The APR may change based on the selected repayment period. You must submit an application to apply for a loan.
2Amex will send your loan funds to your bank account in as fast as 1 day after you've signed your Personal Loan agreement and completed all necessary verification steps. Please note that your bank may take additional time to post your loan funds to your account.
3Consolidating multiple credit card balances into a single monthly payment may not reduce or pay off your debt sooner in all cases. If the monthly payment on your American Express Personal Loan is lower than the combined minimum due on the cards you are consolidating, it may be due to a lower interest rate on your loan, a longer loan period, or a combination of both. American Express Personal Loans can be used to consolidate credit cards only at eligible U.S. banks (American Express Cards excluded).
