How does debt consolidation work?

When you consolidate debt with a personal loan, you combine the outstanding balances of multiple debts into one new personal loan in order to pay off all those other debts. 

This often helps you better manage your budget and cashflow because you only have one loan with one regular repayment and a set end date for paying off the debts, instead of having to manage multiple debts and multiple payments. 

Some of the types of debt that could be consolidated with a personal loan include car loans, credit cards, store cards, and personal loans with other lenders.
