About LendKey

Written by the company

Get to Know LendKey

LendKey is on a mission to make lending simple. We connect our partner financial institutions with consumers looking for education loans to help them achieve their goals. Consumers enjoy low-rate loans through our digital platform. Applying for a loan with LendKey is fast, transparent, and has no unnecessary fees.

First-Class Customer Service

Applying for a loan can be daunting but don’t worry, we are here to help! Our dedicated customer support team is there to help you through the loan process and can answer any questions you may have. Give us a call or email.

Student Loan Refinancing

Refinancing student loans allows you to do a few things. If you have multiple loans, you can combine them into one brand new loan making it more convenient to stay on top of personal finance. You’ll also have the chance to release consigners on your existing loans, eliminating them from any liability. A student loan refinance replaces all your existing loans (or a single student loan if you only have one) with a new loan with new terms. By qualifying for a lower interest rate or reducing the payback period of the new loan, you could save thousands in interest over the life of the loan. By refinancing your existing student loans, you could see a dramatic reduction in your interest rate. Check your rate with no impact to your credit score via LendKey.com.

Private Student Loans

Achieve your dreams of higher education with a low-rate student loan through LendKey! You may be able to borrow up to 100% of your school-certified cost of attendance. This may include tuition, room and board, textbooks, and other related education expenses. Students can apply for this loan if they are enrolled at least half-time in a degree-granting program from an approved school. This application is credit-based so if you do not have an established credit history and a steady source of income, a cosigner may be needed.


Private student loans should be used as supplemental funding after exhausting all sources of financial aid, including grants, scholarships, and federal student loans. Federal loans offer more attractive terms when compared to most other borrowing options, including private student loans. For more information on federal loans, visit http://www.fafsa.ed.gov.

LENDKEY IS THE ABSOLUTE WORST!!

LENDKEY IS THE ABSOLUTE WORST!!! Run while you can do NOT ever move your student loans to them or take anything out with them. No one ever knows what is going on, it has been an ultimate NIGHTMARE working with them. Consolidated my student loans with them and they never got a final payout from the other borrower and just sent a check for way more than what was owed. Its been 4 months now and still waiting on a refund check on the difference from them. We've called MULTIPLE times and literally every time you call someone says something different including the supervisors. I would never EVER EVER take a loan with lendkey ever again and advise EVERYONE to steer away.

LendKey makes it easy!

From initial account creation to finalizing terms and setting up auto-pay, LendKey makes it easy! I had my old high interest loans taken over and bundled into one much lower interest loan. The entire process was seamless and nearly effortless. Highly recommend!

Simple and Reliable Loan Management

LendKey has made managing my loan easy and stress-free. The website is user-friendly, allowing me to access my account and track my payments with ease. Setting up automatic payments was simple and ensures that my payment is made on time every month. The entire experience has been smooth, and I appreciate the convenience LendKey provides. Highly recommend!

They make it easy

They make it easy by comparing different companies with different interest rates. If refinancing is needed, that process is easy as well

Lendkey is Super Easy and User Friendly

I was referred by a friend to LendKey because she said that I would most likely save $50+ per month. She was right, and the process from start to finish was quick and easy. I would recommend LendKey to anyone looking to refinance their student loans.

Stay away from Lendkey

Stay away from Lendkey. They are dishonest and just take your money and trap you in the loan forever. They take advantage of young student. The Bible says the love of money is the root of all evil and this company is the definition of this. It's terrible.

Thank you Lendkey!

My previous student loan holder had high interest rates, and my amount kept growing. When I switched to LendKey, I was able to take a breath of fresh air. They helped me get on the right track and I've paid over half of my debt already! Makes me so happy to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Thank you LendKey!
