Frequently asked questions

Can I get a payday loan in Hartselle, AL?

Payday loans ("deferred presentment") are legal in Alabama from lenders licensed by the State Banking Department under the Deferred Presentment Services Act, Ala. You can request one online from Hartselle through our network; approval and terms are set by the lender.

How much can I borrow with a payday loan in Hartselle?

How much does a $300 payday loan cost in Hartselle?

At Alabama's cap of $17.5 per $100, the fee on $300 is $52, so you would repay $352 on your due date.

How fast can I get a payday loan in Hartselle?

The form takes about three minutes and many lenders decide within minutes. If you're approved and sign before the lender's cutoff, funds are often deposited the next business day.

Do payday loans 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 payday loan 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. Hartselle residents can see their options with our 3-minute form.

Do payday loans 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. Ready to compare offers in Hartselle? Our form takes about 3 minutes.

What is a payday advance loan?

A payday advance loan is another name for a payday loan: 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. Hartselle residents can request a payday advance online through our network in about 3 minutes.

What is a payday loan in Hartselle?

A payday loan is a small, short-term loan, usually a few hundred dollars, that you repay in one payment on or around your next payday. Borrowers in Hartselle can request one online from home instead of visiting a storefront. Through our free form you can be matched with lenders in our network, with amounts depending on the lender and Alabama rules. See if you qualify in about 3 minutes.

Is a payday loan secured or unsecured?

A payday loan 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. Hartselle residents can see if they qualify in about 3 minutes.

Do I need to visit a store in Hartselle?

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.
