Big Buck Loans review: requirements, documents and cost

QUICK ANSWER

Big Buck Loans (often searched as Big Bucks Loans) is a matching service, not a lender. Its pages describe loans of $100 to $5,000 over 3 to 24 months at 5.99%–35.99%, and set clear minimums: age 18+, income of at least $1,000 a month for three months, a US bank account with direct deposit, and documents including three payslips and three bank statements. It says no-credit-check loans are not available through it.

Big Buck Loans requirements

Unlike many matching sites, Big Buck Loans spells out who can apply (Big Buck Loans: same day loans (3 months income, affordability) ↗, Big Buck Loans: instant loans page (eligibility, terms) ↗):

Documents to have ready

Its pages ask for digital copies of: proof of address (usually a utility bill), a valid ID, your latest three payslips if you have them, and your last three months of bank statements (Big Buck Loans: no credit check loans page ↗). Having them ready is the main way to avoid delays after a lender responds.

“No credit check” — what Big Buck Loans actually says

Although several of its pages are titled “no credit check loans”, the text says such loans are not possible through Big Buck Loans because of US lending regulations, and that lenders will still run a credit check even when credit is not the deciding factor (Big Buck Loans: no credit check loans page ↗, Big Buck Loans: instant loans page (eligibility, terms) ↗). Our guide to no credit check loans explains the difference.

Cost at the ends of its advertised range

Our arithmetic, using the 5.99%–35.99% range and terms its pages describe (Big Buck Loans: $1,000 loans page ↗), with equal monthly payments and no fees:

LoanPayment at 5.99%Payment at 35.99%Interest at 35.99%
$500 over 3 months$168.33$176.76$30.29
$1,000 over 12 months$86.06$100.46$205.49
$3,000 over 24 months$132.95$177.13$1,251.03
$5,000 over 24 months$221.58$295.21$2,085.05

The low end usually requires strong credit. Its homepage lists terms from 61 days to 72 months, while its product pages describe 3 to 24 months — ask the lender which applies to your offer.

Who Big Buck Loans may suit

Someone with documented income of at least $1,000 a month who needs a few hundred to a few thousand dollars and wants a monthly installment rather than a single payday balloon. If you cannot provide three months of statements, or rely on a prepaid card, expect fewer matches.
