We'll help you pay for your healthcare.
At your own pace.

Walnut matches patients with loan offers after collecting some general information. We connect you with lenders who pre-approve you for financing.

The process takes about 2 minutes. Once complete, available loan options are presented.

You’ll leave the Walnut site to finalize the loan directly with your lender and the lender deposits the funds in your bank account within 1-3 business days.

From there, you use those funds to pay your provider and then pay the lender back in monthly installments.

Currently, not just anyone. You must meet the following requirements to apply:
- US Citizen
- Valid SSN
- Some credit history

If you do not accept a loan when you first apply, you’ll need to resubmit the application next time you visit. Lenders may also email you directly with the loan offers you were presented upon application submission.

Applying only requires a soft credit check, so there is no effect on your credit score. After the loan is accepted, there may be a one-time hard credit check.

Please contact your lender should you have further questions on credit reporting for repayment.

We encourage you to only apply for the amount your treatment will cost or how much of the treatment cost you’d like to finance.

If you’re receiving multiple services from your provider in the same time period, we encourage you to apply for the total combined cost.

If you need additional financing later on, you can always apply for another loan.

Your loan may be subject to fees or interest. Currently, none of our lenders require prepayment fees.

Please contact your lender directly to inquire about their specific policies.
