AutoPay vs LendingClub: Which auto refinance wins?

Side-by-side comparison of AutoPay and LendingClub auto refinance — APR ranges, credit floors, application speed, and editorial verdict.

Best refi marketplace

AutoPay

4.8·4.99–17.99%·560+ FICO

Most flexible refi marketplace — quotes from 20+ lenders, covers subprime to prime, with terms up to 96 months. Highest savings potential when refinancing dealer financing.

No prepayment penalty · 660+ FICO refi

LendingClub

4.4·5.74–24.99%·660+ FICO

Refi-only specialist with no prepayment penalty and a clean digital flow. 660+ FICO floor means it's a prime / super-prime tool, not subprime. Loan ceiling caps at $55k — won't work for luxury refis.

In plain English

AutoPay wins on both dimensions — lower APR floor (4.99% vs 5.74%) AND lower credit floor (560+ vs 660+ FICO). LendingClub can still be the better fit when application speed or loan-amount ceilings matter more — see the verdicts below.
