Is a cash advance the same as a cash advance?
The terms are often used interchangeably. A cash advance is sometimes called a cash advance because it advances money against your next paycheck. A credit card cash advance is different: you withdraw cash against your card's credit limit, which requires available credit on a card. If you don't have card credit to tap, a cash advance through our network is a fast option. Check your options in about 3 minutes.
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.

How do cash advances work in Chattanooga?
You fill out a short online request, a lender reviews your income and banking details, and if you're approved you see the amount, fee and due date before you sign. Funds are typically deposited into your checking account, often by the next business day. On your due date, repayment is usually taken from that same account. Chattanooga residents can start the process online in about 3 minutes.
Do cash advances affect your credit score?
Usually only a little, if at all. Because many payday lenders don't use a traditional hard credit pull and often don't report to the major bureaus, a cash advance repaid on time typically has little effect on your score. A balance that goes unpaid and reaches collections could hurt it, so borrow an amount you can repay on your due date. Chattanooga residents can see their options with our 3-minute form.
Do I need to visit a store in Chattanooga?
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.
