FAQ

Is this a loan?

Not exactly. Frontlands allows you to advance money from your royalties on the minerals you own. It's a flexible credit line (similar to a credit card) so you choose when—and how much—to draw, up to your approved limit. You only pay interest on the amount you actually use.

Do I have to sell my mineral rights?

No. You keep full ownership of your mineral rights as long as payments are made on time. Frontlands will not ask you to sell as part of using your account. Please make sure you do not borrow beyond what you can repay—as with any lending product, if you are unable to pay, then your collateral is at risk.

Will it hurt my credit score?

No. There's no hard credit pull to explore your offer, and we don't report to consumer credit bureaus.

How much can I access?

Your exact credit limit is typically 40-50% of the value of your mineral rights. We'll share your number clearly before you decide.

How quickly can I receive funds?

Most customers receive funds within 1-3 business days after accepting an offer.
