What you can review before you choose a program
We keep the entry path simple: understand likely fit, know what a partner review covers, and move into `/apply` only when you are ready.
A clearer first conversation
See what the review usually covers, which documents can help, and what questions are worth asking before you move forward.
Decision control
You keep control of the final decision, the timing, and whether you want to continue after the free review.
Premium shell
A steadier first step for Michigan, Georgia, and South Carolina visitors.
This shared homepage now leads with context before asking for commitment, so the transition into `/apply` feels more intentional and less like a stock landing page.

Credit Counseling
A certified counselor helps you build a budget and repayment plan to manage your debt over time.
Pros
- Low cost ($25-$75/month)
- No credit requirements
- Good first step if you need structure
Cons
- Does not reduce what you owe
- Success depends on sticking to the budget
- Not a structured program — it's guidance only
Best for
People with under $10K in debt who need help creating a realistic plan they can stick to.
Debt Consolidation
A professional team works with your creditors to reduce what you owe — typically by 40% or more — and replaces multiple payments with one.
Pros
- Reduce what you owe by 40% or more
- One monthly payment instead of many
- Get out of debt faster — credit can recover sooner
Cons
- Temporary credit dip at the start, then recovery
- Works best with steady income
- Not ideal for debts under $15K
Best for
People with $20K+ in credit card debt who are tired of watching minimum payments go nowhere — especially homeowners.
Personal Loan
Combine multiple debts into one loan with a single monthly payment, potentially at a lower interest rate.
Pros
- One predictable monthly payment
- May lower your overall interest rate
- Simpler than juggling multiple bills
Cons
- You still pay back the full amount
- No reduction in what you owe
- The debt keeps growing with interest
Best for
People with $10K-$15K in debt who want simpler payments and can handle paying the full balance over time.
Partner proof
Public reviews help reinforce what visitors should expect from the first conversation: clarity, empathy, and a more organized path through the decision.
Reviews From Our Partner Network
Real reviews from clients of our vetted debt consolidation partners.
The individuals that I spoke with were amazing helpful thoughtful and very kind. Unfortunate circumstances got us where we are and rather than judging they empathized and let me know I was going to be able to finally climb out of this situation.
Harold via Accredited Debt Relief on Trustpilot
David Chang was very kind and helpful in the process for not only my husband but myself too.
Jenn via TurboDebt on Trustpilot
Very helpful, from filing to downloading documents. Gave special instructions for interaction with creditors, and basically took all the worry off my shoulders.
