The Wonder of Prosper

by Prosper member Richard

Prosper FamilyWe were so skeptical when we first joined Prosper… We were seeking a loan for the adoption of our child. Once we got started, not only was Prosper the easiest thing in the world, but also the people we corresponded with were wonderful, the bidders were wonderful, and the professionals at Prosper were amazing.

We encountered a small problem and Prosper rectified it within a matter of days. They personally contacted us and assured us that the loan would go through allowing us to proceed with our miracle.

We are now lenders on Prosper and think it is great that people from all walks of life have Prosper as an option to assist their lives. We are eternally grateful for the chance to work with the folks at Prosper, the bidders, the community, and recommend Prosper for the worldwide community as a whole. (Editor’s Note: Prosper is only available in the United States at this time :) )

Is Prosper Safe?

by Prosper member idfnl writer of the blog Peer to Peer Lending with Prosper

“Is Prosper Safe for lenders and borrowers?” is a question that I seem to get over and over via email thru my blog. In a nutshell, yes, it is very safe.

Prosper has many safeguards for both lenders and borrowers to ensure that things like personal information is not divulged and fraud cannot take place as a result of the website. Prosper also has a community of over 500,000 members to support each other. In the two links below, you will see a long bullet pointed list of things which show why Prosper is a safe place to borrow and lend money.

If you are interested in borrowing money using Prosper, your identity is safe and you have complete control over your listing and eventually your loan.  Read the links below and judge Prosper’s features and safeguards for yourself. Peer to peer lending is growing fast and Prosper represents the leading online marketplace for this service.
