What A State Status Means
A state selector should show the correct path, not a universal yes or no
| Status | What It Means | Correct Next Step |
|---|---|---|
| Available | A current participating provider and product path may be supported for the selected state. | Show the exact product category, role disclosure, request path, and current terms source. |
| Conditional | The path may depend on residence, product, amount, channel, applicant category, or another stated condition. | Display the condition before the CTA and avoid universal availability language. |
| Alternative product | The requested structure may not be available, but a different product path may exist. | Name the different product accurately and require a separate cost and repayment review. |
| Temporarily paused | A previously supported path is not currently accepting requests. | Remove the product CTA until the current status is confirmed. |
| Unavailable | No current participating-provider path is supported for the selected product and state. | Do not collect a full application for that product; provide neutral alternatives or support information. |
| Under review | The available evidence is incomplete, conflicting, or no longer current. | Do not treat the path as available until verification is complete. |
Availability, Eligibility, And Funding Are Different
| Stage | What Happens | What It Does Not Guarantee |
|---|---|---|
| State/product path | The system identifies whether a participating-provider route may exist for the stated residence and product. | It does not establish individual eligibility or final terms. |
| Request submitted | The consumer provides information under the displayed consent and privacy terms. | It does not create a loan application with every recipient or guarantee a response. |
| Matched or referred | The request may be shared with one or more participating recipients under the disclosed model. | A match is not approval and does not establish a lender relationship. |
| Provider review | A provider may verify identity, residence, income, bank information, credit or alternative data, and other criteria. | Review can end without an offer or with terms different from the request. |
| Offer presented | A legal lender provides specific amount, cost, schedule, and disclosures. | The offer is not funding until accepted and remaining conditions are completed. |
| Funds posted | The lender releases funds and the receiving bank or payment rail completes posting. | Approval alone does not guarantee the posting date or immediate availability. |
What Can Differ By State
The same search phrase can lead to a different lawful product or no current path
| State-Specific Factor | What May Differ | What the Consumer Should Verify |
|---|---|---|
| Product structure | Closed-end installment, single-payment, short-term, cash-advance, or open-end structures may not be available through the same providers. | The legal product name in the agreement, not only the marketing label. |
| Provider coverage | A participating provider may operate in one state, pause another, or support only selected products. | The exact legal entity, current role, and state/product applicability. |
| Amounts and terms | Requested amounts, permitted term structures, and payment frequency can differ. | Offered principal, amount financed, net proceeds, number of payments, and due dates. |
| Rates and fees | APR, finance charge, origination, subscription, expedited-transfer, late, or returned-payment charges may differ by product and provider. | Every mandatory and optional cost in the actual disclosure. |
| Underwriting and documents | Residence, identity, income, bank, credit, or alternative-data requirements can differ. | The provider criteria, inquiry type, data source, consent, and requested documents. |
| Funding and servicing | Transfer method, cut-off time, posting, servicer, payment recipient, and complaint path can differ. | Who releases funds, services the account, accepts payments, and handles disputes. |
Submit one request, then review the actual lender, cost, payment schedule, and total repayment before accepting.
Know Who Is Responsible
| Party | Typical Role | What to Confirm |
|---|---|---|
| TheProBank | Receives an online request and may route information to participating providers or service partners under the current consent. | Operator role, recipients or recipient categories, purpose, privacy terms, and whether marketing contact may occur. |
| Participating provider | May receive, verify, or evaluate the request, or direct the consumer to a separate application process. | Legal name, role, state/product coverage, inquiry stage, and contact information. |
| Legal lender or creditor | Decides whether to extend credit and sets the actual amount, APR, fees, term, schedule, and disclosures. | Legal entity, product, state, agreement, applicable authority, and official support channel. |
| Funder or payment rail | May release or transmit funds after acceptance and completion of conditions. | Transfer method, timing, fees, cut-off rules, and bank-posting uncertainty. |
| Servicer or payment recipient | Maintains the account, posts payments, provides payoff information, and handles servicing issues. | Account number, due dates, authorized payment methods, support, dispute, and complaint routes. |
