How it Works


Why borrow from us?

It is stressful to be one sick child or car repair away from financial hardship. At the Community Loan Center of Austin, we know that any emergency can break the bank. That is why if your employer is enrolled in the CLC of Austin financial wellness program, you can quickly access a loan of up to $1,000, with no collateral or credit checks required.

Whether it’s paying down debt, starting a savings or buying a home, financial goals are the foundation of our financial security when we meet them. Our financial coaches are ready to help you create a plan and be a guide to meet your goals. Give us a call or sign up online!

 If your employer isn't enrolled yet, let them know about the CLC of Austin. There's no cost to offer this great benefit to employees!
