What is a payday advance loan?

The process is quick because lenders look mainly at your income and checking account. Fremont residents can request a payday advance online through our network in about 3 minutes.
Is a payday loan the same as a cash advance?
The terms are often used interchangeably. A payday loan is sometimes called a cash advance because it advances money against your next paycheck.

If you don't have card credit to tap, a payday loan through our network is a fast option. Check your options in about 3 minutes.
Do payday lenders in Fremont check your credit?
Most payday lenders check something, but it often isn't a traditional credit report. Many focus on income and banking history and may use alternative credit data or a soft check instead of a hard pull from the major bureaus. Each lender sets its own process and will tell you what it reviews. Submitting our form is free, and you can see if you qualify in about 3 minutes.
