If you are a Prosper lender but also have a loan, here is something interesting I learned recently: you can make a payment on your loan directly from your Prosper account.

I wasn't aware this was possible. I have always had my payments automatically deducted from my account and never bothered to look at the "make a payment" link under My Account > Borrowing. But when I was researching the recent post I wrote on "Snowflaking" I discovered this was in fact possible so I thought I would pass it on to those that didn't know including me.


I've acutally withdrawn money from my Prosper account to my bank account in preperation for a payment, now I don't have to because you have 2 options for making a payment:

• Paying down your loan by a certain amount
• Making your next payment

I'm going to start using this!
