Frequently Asked Questions

Is a promissory note legally enforceable?

Yes — a signed promissory note is a legally binding written promise to repay a debt, and can be used as evidence in court if the borrower doesn't pay.

What's the difference between a promissory note and a loan agreement?

A promissory note is a simpler, one-sided written promise to pay; a full loan agreement is more detailed and typically used for larger or more complex loans between businesses.
