Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is a payday loan?

  • A: A payday loan – also known as a cash advance or payday advance – allows you to borrow money against your next pay day. If you are in need of a small sum of money to hold you over until your next paycheck, a payday loan may be right for you. Instead of paying bank overdraft fees, dipping into overdraft protection or paying late fees for credit cards or rent, a payday loan can give you the money you need to take care of your expenses immediately. These loans are designed to cover short-term financial obligations, and are not intended to be a long-term financial solution.

Q: How much will I owe on my due date?

Q: What if I can’t pay on my due date?

  • A: Some states put restrictions on refinancing a payday loan. However, in some states you can refinance your payday loan for another term. To refinance means that you will only pay your fees on your due date. Your principal loan amount will then roll into a new term, and you will be charged fees again.
