How it works

From the first request
to the final payment.

Lend to the people and businesses you know, with the agreement, funding, and repayments in one place. Friendly handles the day-to-day work, so you can focus on the relationship.

A loan to someone
you know.

Your daughter Emma asks to borrow $25,000 to renovate her home. Her request gives you a place to start: what she needs, why, and how she plans to repay you.
