What are the risks of Forward Funding?

If you choose to apply with Forward Funding, you may be encouraged to sign up for a debt settlement program instead of taking out a loan. There's also a chance the company will continue to contact you multiple times a day if you decline its services.

Does Forward Funding affect credit score?

Checking rates with Forward Funding will not affect your credit score, as they only use a soft pull to determine your eligibility and match you with partner lenders. Once you complete a full application with lenders you've been matched with, you may need to consent to a hard pull, which will temporarily lower your credit score.
