Is a payday loan secured or unsecured?

That keeps the process quick, since there's nothing to appraise. Cheney residents can see if they qualify 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.
