Frequently asked questions
Are title loans legal in Nebraska?
Nebraska has no title-loan licensing law. A licensed installment lender may take a vehicle as security, but the loan is limited to 24%/21% a year, so triple-digit title loans cannot be made legally.
What interest can title lenders charge in Nebraska?
Installment loans, secured or unsecured, are capped at 24% a year on the first $1,000 of unpaid principal and 21% on the rest.
Can I get a title loan online in Nebraska?
Yes. Many title lenders let you start and complete most of the process online. You enter your vehicle and income details, then upload photos of your car, title and ID instead of visiting a store. Some lenders may still ask for a quick in-person inspection. Funds are usually sent to your bank account. Start your Nebraska title loan request in about 3 minutes.
Can I refinance my title loan in Nebraska?
Often, yes. Some lenders let you refinance an existing title loan into a new loan with a different payment amount or term, and a new lender may be able to pay off your current one. Options depend on your vehicle's value, your income and Nebraska rules. Enter your details on our form to see what lenders in our network can offer you. It takes about 3 minutes.
What do I need for a title loan in Nebraska?
Most lenders ask for a vehicle title in your name, ideally free of other liens, a valid government-issued ID, proof of income, proof of residence in Nebraska, and the vehicle itself for photos or a quick inspection. Some lenders also ask for proof of insurance or a spare key. Requirements vary by lender. Start our 3-minute form to see what lenders need from you.
Can I get a title loan on a financed car in Nebraska?
Sometimes. If you still owe money on your car, some lenders may approve a title loan based on your equity, meaning the car's value minus what you owe. Others require a title that's fully paid off and in your name. Because policies vary, enter your vehicle and current loan details on our form, and lenders serving Nebraska will tell you what they can offer.
