FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. What types of loans do you offer?

We specialize in four primary loan types:

• Personal Loans: Unsecured loans for larger expenses, debt consolidation, or emergencies.
• Payday Loans: Short-term, small-dollar loans designed to be repaid with your next paycheck.
• Installment Loans: Loans repaid in regular installments over a fixed period.
• Cash Advances: Short-term loans or advances against your paycheck to cover urgent expenses.

2. How do Personal Loans differ from Payday Loans?

• Personal Loans: Typically larger amounts, repaid over several months or years. They are often unsecured, meaning no collateral is required.
• Payday Loans: Smaller amounts, designed to be repaid in full on your next payday (usually within 2-4 weeks), with higher interest rates.

3. What are Installment Loans?

Installment loans allow you to borrow a lump sum and repay it over a set number of scheduled payments (or “installments”). This can be monthly, biweekly, or another agreed-upon schedule. They offer more flexibility in repayment terms compared to payday loans.

4. What is a Cash Advance?

A cash advance is a short-term loan designed to help cover unexpected expenses before your next paycheck. It’s a small loan typically repaid in full on your next payday or over a few pay periods, depending on the terms.

5. How much can I borrow?

The loan amounts vary depending on the type of loan:

• Personal Loans: $1,000 – $50,000.
• Payday Loans: $100 – $1,500.
• Installment Loans: $500 – $10,000, with flexible repayment terms.
• Cash Advances: $100 – $1,000. The amount for which you’re eligible will depend on factors like your income, credit score, and the loan type.

6. How quickly can I receive the funds?

Once approved, funds can be deposited into your account as soon as the next business day, depending on your bank and the type of loan.

7. What are the eligibility requirements for each loan?

• Personal Loans: Typically require a good or fair credit score, stable income, and a reasonable debt-to-income ratio.
• Payday Loans: Require proof of income, an active bank account, and valid identification. Credit checks are usually minimal or not required.
• Installment Loans: Require regular income and may involve a soft credit check.
• Cash Advances: Require proof of employment and a checking account. No extensive credit check is needed.

8. Can I get a loan with bad credit?

Yes, we offer loans for individuals with all credit profiles. While a lower credit score may impact the loan terms or limit the loan type (e.g., personal loans may have stricter requirements), payday loans and cash advances are often available for those with poor credit.

9. How do I apply for a loan?

Applying is simple:

1. Choose your loan type (Personal, Payday, Installment, or Cash Advance).
2. Complete the online application form, providing your personal, financial, and employment details.
3. Submit your application for review. You will be notified about the approval status typically within minutes for payday and cash advances, or within 1-2 business days for personal and installment loans.

10. What are the interest rates for each loan type?

• Personal Loans: Typically range from 5% to 35% APR, depending on your creditworthiness and the loan term.
• Payday Loans: Have higher APRs, often ranging from 200% to 700% due to their short-term nature.
• Installment Loans: APRs can range from 20% to 100%, depending on the loan amount and repayment terms.
• Cash Advances: Similar to payday loans, with high APRs, though these may vary based on state regulations.

11. How do I repay the loan?

• Personal and Installment Loans: Repaid over fixed monthly installments, automatically deducted from your bank account, or manually paid online.
• Payday Loans: The full loan amount plus fees is typically due on your next payday, often deducted automatically from your bank account.
• Cash Advances: Repaid on your next payday or split into a few installments, depending on the terms.

12. Can I extend or roll over a Payday Loan or Cash Advance?

Depending on your state’s laws, you may be able to extend or “roll over” a payday loan or cash advance, though this often involves additional fees and interest. Be aware that rollovers can lead to higher overall costs. Always check your loan agreement for details or contact our support team for assistance.

13. Are there any fees for these loans?

Yes, fees vary by loan type:

• Personal Loans: May include origination fees, late payment fees, or prepayment penalties (although many do not have prepayment fees).
• Payday Loans: Typically include a flat fee per $100 borrowed, which can vary by state.
• Installment Loans: May include origination or processing fees, late payment fees, and prepayment penalties (depending on the lender).
• Cash Advances: Similar to payday loans, often involving a fee per borrowed amount. All fees will be disclosed before you finalize your loan agreement.

14. What happens if I can’t repay my loan on time?

If you are unable to repay your loan on the due date:

• Personal Loans: Late payment fees may apply, and it may affect your credit score.
• Payday Loans and Cash Advances: Late fees or additional interest may be charged. Failing to repay these loans can also negatively impact your credit score, and collection efforts may begin. If you’re facing financial hardship, contact us immediately to discuss your options.

15. Can I repay my loan early?

Yes, most loans can be repaid early without penalties. Paying off your loan early can save you money on interest, especially for personal and installment loans. Be sure to check your loan agreement for specific terms.
