Personal Loans Based on Employment
VIVA offers personal loans that are based on employment information - not just credit history - and that are paid back via payroll direct deposit.
By using alternative underwriting factors—such as employment history and cash flow—and aligning repayment with payroll, VIVA lowers borrowing costs and expands access to credit for working Americans.
