Loans issued by Celtic Bank, a Utah-Chartered Industrial Bank, Member FDIC, located in Salt Lake City, UT. Borrowers can choose to pay over 3, 6, or 12 months with fixed interest rates from 0-30%.* The interest rate and annual percentage rate (APR) are the same. The interest rate may vary based on credit history and other factors. Our 0% rate is available for qualifying applicants who select autopay and choose a 3-month term. Select Square businesses may offer 0% APR for longer terms based on individual credit.

A reduced APR is available when automatic payments are selected during the application process.
