Wisconsin Wisloan Program

March 18th, 2011

Wisloan is a state-wide alternative loan program helping Wisconsin’s residents with a disability to purchase assistive technology that assists them to live more independently and productively.

Program Details

Any Wisconsin resident with a disability over the age of 18 in need of assistive technology or home modifications is eligible to apply for a loan. Some examples of assistive technology include wheelchairs, hearing aids, and vehicles with modifications. In addition, loans have been approved for home modifications such as ramp construction and roll-in showers. Loan amounts range from $500.00 to $50,000.00, but the actual loan amount will depend on the items purchased and your ability to repay. Current interest rate on a Wisloan is 6.5%. If you have bad credit, including bankruptcy, your application will still be considered. The focus is on the ability to make monthly payments to pay back the loan. Reasons for bad credit are taken into consideration.
