Questions about CommonBond?

What is CommonBond?

Launched in 2011, CommonBond was founded by people just like you who felt the pain of the student loan process – high interest rates, poor service, and a confusing process – so they started CommonBond to provide affordable educational products with best in class customer service.



How can I contact CommonBond?

Sometimes it’s nice to talk to a real person. CommonBond has a U.S.-based care team that is available by phone and live chat Monday–Friday, 9am–8pm EST, and you can email them anytime. care@commonbond.co 800.975.7812



Why did apay decided to partner with CommonBond?

Reason 1: They care! Simpler, smarter student loans is their approach. CommonBond has a track record for putting you first. By offering low rates and a simple process, they make achieving your financial goals easy. Reason 2: ...well again, they care! Every time they fund a loan, Commonbond covers the cost of a child’s education through their Social Promise. CommonBond partners with Pencils of Promise to provide schools, teachers, and technology to thousands of students in the developing world.



Does CommonBond offer Income-based Repayment Plans?

CommonBond does not offer income-based repayment plans at the moment, but they fully recognize the importance of flexible repayment terms. As of right now, refinance loans carry standard terms around loan forbearance in case of financial hardship. Situations are reviewed on a case-by-case basis. If an income-based repayment plan is of interest to you, and you have existing federal loans, you may prefer to keep those loans to take advantage of special government programs such as income-based repayment.



Where do I go to see the payments I have made? Can I make payments online?

CommonBond uses a company called Firstmark to accept payments for your loan. You can definitely pay online and you’ll receive all information regarding any other payment methods from Firstmark once you officially accept your loan. If you have any questions about servicing, please reach out to the Care Team at care@commonbond.co or (800) 975-7812.
