How do I make payments?
The following FAQ does not apply to the credit card or secured personal loan products through Avant. Please click here to contact us for inquiries related to the credit card and secured personal loan products.
To help make repaying your loan as simple as possible, you can choose to enroll in automatic payments via Automated Clearing House (ACH). In addition, you can arrange to pay by other accepted methods: paper check, cashiers check, money order, credit card, or debit card.
If you are enrolled in this auto-pay option, all you need to do to ensure your payment is applied to your account each month is make sure there are sufficient funds in your account to cover the installment amount on your installment date.
If you are not currently opted-in to automatic payments, and would like to enroll, please email support@avant.com from the email address on file, and request to be opted-in.
Payment Methods:

We electronically debit your bank account for the amount you owe on your due dates from the bank account information you provide.
