  • You make regular monthly principal and interest payments on the loan
  • As you repay on time (on or before the due date for at least the scheduled payment amount), you establish a positive payment history that we report to the credit bureaus1
  • When you finish repaying the loan, you will have the full balance in the Monson Savings Bank saving account — plus interest!
  • After you pay off your loan, the bank will deposit $15 for loan amounts of $500–$2000 or $25 for loan amounts of $2001–$5000 into your account to congratulate you on your success2
  • By the end of the Credit Builder and Savings Program you should see an improved credit score (based on your payment history)1 and you'll have a jump start on saving

1Results are not guaranteed. Improvement in your credit score is dependent on your specific situation and financial behavior. Failure to make monthly minimum payments by the payment due date each month will result in negative reporting to your credit report which will not improve your credit history. This product will not repair your credit, and negative credit history will not be removed from your credit report as a result of this program.

The Annual Percentage Rate (APR) will be fixed for the full term of the loan based on the Prime Rate published in the Wall Street Journal, effective the date of application, plus .50 basis points. The Prime Rate published in the Wall Street Journal as of 12/20/2024, plus .50bp, is 8.000%.

APR Example loan payment schedule: A $1000 Credit Builder Loan with an Annual Percentage Rate (APR) of 8.000% for 12 months has an approximate monthly payment of $86.99. Your monthly payment will vary based on the loan amount and term. Actual payment amounts may be higher.
