Is a payday loan installment or revolving credit?
A traditional payday loan is neither. It's a single-payment loan: you borrow a set amount and repay it, plus the fee, in one payment on your due date. An installment loan spreads repayment over several scheduled payments, and revolving credit, like a credit card, lets you borrow repeatedly up to a limit. Depending on Wisconsin rules, lenders may offer payday or installment options. Compare them in 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. Chippewa Falls residents can request a payday advance online through our network in about 3 minutes.
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. Chippewa Falls residents can see their options with our 3-minute form.
