Debt consolidation is when you get a new loan to pay off a number of smaller (typically) unsecured loans like bills, credit cards and other high-interest debt.\n\nDebt consolidation has many of the same benefits as refinancing but with a different goal. Consolidation looks to make payments easier to manage by streamlining them into one loan. Refinancing, on the other hand, looks to optimize a debt by replacing one with another that has more favourable terms (better interest rates or repayment schedules).\n"},"image":{"__typename":"ContentfulImage","contentful_id":"66uY1TQotGr2BaiFB7TU51","title":"How To consolidate Debt ","description":{"description":"How To consolidate Debt "},"alternateText":{"alternateText":"How To consolidate Debt "},"image":{"__typename":"ContentfulAsset","title":"How Does Debt Consolidation Work","contentful_id":"1z1N7oYhsdgjFkFlxbuP0E","description":"","file":{"url":"//images.ctfassets.net/ufihiutbamyi/1z1N7oYhsdgjFkFlxbuP0E/c992510587e395828ca82733a010c2db/How_Does_Debt_Consolidation_Work.jpg"},"gatsbyImageData":{"images":{"sources":[{"srcSet":"//images.ctfassets.net/ufihiutbamyi/1z1N7oYhsdgjFkFlxbuP0E/c992510587e395828ca82733a010c2db/How_Does_Debt_Consolidation_Work.jpg?w=218&h=100&q=90&fm=webp 218w,\n//images.ctfassets.net/ufihiutbamyi/1z1N7oYhsdgjFkFlxbuP0E/c992510587e395828ca82733a010c2db/How_Does_Debt_Consolidation_Work.jpg?w=435&h=200&q=90&fm=webp 435w,\n//images.ctfassets.net/ufihiutbamyi/1z1N7oYhsdgjFkFlxbuP0E/c992510587e395828ca82733a010c2db/How_Does_Debt_Consolidation_Work.jpg?w=870&h=400&q=90&fm=webp 870w","sizes":"(min-width: 870px) 870px, 100vw","type":"image/webp"}],"fallback":{"src":"//images.ctfassets.net/ufihiutbamyi/1z1N7oYhsdgjFkFlxbuP0E/c992510587e395828ca82733a010c2db/How_Does_Debt_Consolidation_Work.jpg?w=870&h=400&q=90&fm=png","srcSet":"//images.ctfassets.net/ufihiutbamyi/1z1N7oYhsdgjFkFlxbuP0E/c992510587e395828ca82733a010c2db/How_Does_Debt_Consolidation_Work.jpg?w=218&h=100&q=90&fm=png 218w,\n//images.ctfassets.net/ufihiutbamyi/1z1N7oYhsdgjFkFlxbuP0E/c992510587e395828ca82733a010c2db/How_Does_Debt_Consolidation_Work.jpg?w=435&h=200&q=90&fm=png 435w,\n//images.ctfassets.net/ufihiutbamyi/1z1N7oYhsdgjFkFlxbuP0E/c992510587e395828ca82733a010c2db/How_Does_Debt_Consolidation_Work.jpg?w=870&h=400&q=90&fm=png 870w","sizes":"(min-width: 870px) 870px, 100vw"}},"layout":"constrained","width":870,"height":400.00000000000006}}},"link":{"__typename":"ContentfulLink","contentful_id":"3kKzYIbYF7sirqQyKOMmE7","image":null,"alternateText":"Debt Consolidation: How Do I Consolidate Debt With A Personal Loan?","link":"/blog/debt-consolidation/","linkName":null,"linkText":"Read more","callToAction":false,"cookieValue":null,"cookieKey":null,"rel":null},"authorBio":{"__typename":"ContentfulAuthorBio","contentful_id":"3BXCEH48gRCwxaTidmPpa2","title":"The Borrowell Team","jobTitle":null,"bio":{"bio":"Borrowell is a leading financial technology company dedicated to helping Canadians feel confident about money.
