Are you planning to propose to your special someone? If you’re looking for a smart way to pay for such an important piece, we recommend financing your engagement ring. You never know when you’ll need that extra $5,500 of hard-earned cash for holiday gifts and emergencies.

Financing may sound like a big scheme with plenty of loopholes. But when you shop with Gage Diamonds, there are no hidden fees or gimmicks. We even offer financing to those with poor credit. Sound too good to be true? Learn more about how to get engaged with Gage.

What Does Financing with Gage Diamonds Look Like?

At Gage Diamonds, you can buy your partner’s dream engagement ring today and pay for it later. We don’t believe in making you wait to create such a special moment. Through our financing partner, LendFirm, we offer financing at 4.95% for 12 or 24 months on everything, from engagement and wedding rings to diamonds and other fine jewelry.

Other jewelry companies usually require a good credit score to approve your financing plan. But we use a different approach — understanding that you’re more than your credit score.

How to Get Started with Gage Diamonds

First, you’ll want to do your research and determine what ring styles your partner likes and what might be suitable for their lifestyle. When you have a good idea, you’ll simply need to provide us with a valid driver’s license or state ID; record of a direct deposit from your primary employer or benefit provider into a three-month-old checking account; and proof of a checking account that’s in good standing and contains sufficient funds.

We typically approve applications in 24 hours, so you don’t waste any time shopping! We even directly link to your checking account and align your jewelry payment plan with your employer’s pay schedule. That way, you never have to worry about missing a payment due to insufficient funds. If you get paid on the first and 15th every month, no problem. We’ll schedule your jewelry payments on those days too.
