What is a payday advance loan?

A payday advance loan is another name for a cash advance: a short-term advance on your next paycheck. You borrow a small amount and repay it, plus a fee, when you're next paid. The process is quick because lenders look mainly at your income and checking account. Chula Vista residents can request a payday advance online through our network in about 3 minutes.

How much does a cash advance cost in Chula Vista?

Do cash advances show up on your credit report?

Many payday lenders do not report regular, on-time payments to the three major credit bureaus, so the loan often doesn't appear on a standard credit report. Some lenders and specialty bureaus do track short-term loans, and an unpaid balance sent to collections can be reported. Your lender explains its reporting policy in the loan agreement.

Is a cash advance secured or unsecured?

A cash advance is an unsecured loan. You don't put up a car, home or other property as collateral. Instead, lenders base their decision mainly on your income and checking account, and repayment is usually scheduled from that account on your due date. That keeps the process quick, since there's nothing to appraise. Chula Vista residents can see if they qualify in about 3 minutes.

Do I need to visit a store in Chula Vista?

No. You can request offers online from a phone or computer. Some lenders, especially title lenders, may ask you to visit a location or send photos of your vehicle.
