This is a significant milestone, which has been achieved following Prosper's expansion of its suite of services and products over the past six years. The company has also provided access to over $28 billion in funds for borrowers since inception, including approximately $775 million in credit card sales in less than three years.

"We are grateful to our customers for placing their trust in us to support them on their financial journey," said David Kimball, CEO of Prosper. "During these extraordinary times, when the economy is still recovering from the global pandemic and is also dealing with inflation, higher interest rates, and other challenges, it says so much that our customers have chosen to work with us in a competitive financial services marketplace."  

In addition to obtaining personal loans issued by WebBank, Prosper customers can:

  • Utilize the Prosper® Card to access a line of credit for meeting expenses and taking control of their finances.
  • Turn home equity into cash with home equity loans and lines of credit available through Prosper. Home equity loans and lines of credit available via Prosper can enable customers to keep their existing mortgages, and use the funds they receive for any purpose1.
  • Invest in peer-to-peer loans to earn solid returns while diversifying their portfolios.

"Peer-to-peer lending has revolutionized financial services, by giving individual investors the opportunity to help ordinary Americans achieve their financial dreams while expanding and diversifying their investment portfolio beyond conventional options," Kimball continued. "While personal loans are a vital component of our business, and our mission, we will continue to provide additional tools and products to help Americans do more for and with their credit. We congratulate our team, and our customers, for all they have done to bring our business to this point."
