Reading Your Borrower Statement

« Back to help topics

Statement layout


Your borrower statement is a snapshot in time of your borrowing activity on Prosper. The statement is created about five days after your monthly loan payment date, and is made available on the "My Account > Statements" page. If you pay off one loan and get a new one, each loan will generate a separate statement.

Your statement is divided into three primary areas:
  • Loan summary: A summary of your loan with Prosper, detailing balances and interest rates.

  • Payment summary: A simple overview of the prior and upcoming payments on your loan. If your payment is past due, it will be indicated in this area of the statement.

  • Account activity: A detailed list of accrual and payment events on your loan for the current statement period.


Loan summary

The loan summary is a summary of your loan with Prosper, detailing balances and interest rates.

Specific fields include:

  • Loan title: The title of the listing that was funded to create the loan.
  • Loan no.: The Prosper loan number for the loan.
  • Product: The terms (length and rate style) of the loan.
  • Original loan amount: The original principal balance of the loan, including closing fees.
  • Principal balance: The current principal balance of the loan.
  • Interest rate: The annual rate of interest for the loan. Includes group leader rewards if applicable.
  • APR: The Annual Percentage Rate (APR) is an expression of the effective interest rate that will be paid on a loan. It is different from the borrower rate (or "note rate") because it includes one-time fees in an attempt to calculate a total cost of borrowing money. Learn more about APR.
  • Daily rate: The interest rate expressed as a daily percentage rate, assuming a 365-day year.
  • Interest accrued this period: The amount of interest accrued on the loan during the current statement period.

Payment summary

The payment summary is a simple overview of the prior and upcoming payments on your loan. If your payment is past due, it will be indicated in this area of the statement.

Specific fields include:

  • Last payment: The amount, date, and status of the last payment. If your payment is late, you will be instructed to make a manual payment immediately. Learn more about what happens if you're late on a monthly payment.
  • Next payment: The amount and date of your next scheduled monthly payment. You can make a manual payment at any time.
