Frequently asked questions

Can I get a title loan in Eugene, OR?

Title loans are legal in Oregon from lenders licensed under ORS 725A, with the same 36% interest cap and one-time origination fee as payday loans. You can start online; the lender will need to see the car and a lien-free (or nearly paid-off) title in your name.

What happens if I miss a title loan payment in Eugene?

The contract may not let interest keep running after the vehicle is repossessed. The lender may not require or accept your keys.

What is a title loan in Eugene?

A title loan is a loan secured by your vehicle's title. The lender holds a lien on your car while you keep driving it, and the lien is released once the loan is repaid. Because the car secures the loan, approval depends largely on your vehicle's value, not just your credit. Eugene drivers can start a title loan request online in about 3 minutes.

How do title loans work in Eugene, OR?

You share details about your vehicle and income, the lender estimates the car's value, and if you're approved you receive an offer based on a portion of that value. You sign the agreement, the lender records a lien on your title, and you get your funds, often quickly. You keep driving while you repay. Start your request online and see your options in about 3 minutes.

Can I get a title loan with a salvage or rebuilt title?

It's harder, but not always impossible. Many lenders require a clean title, while some will consider a rebuilt title after the car has passed inspection. Salvage titles are rarely accepted because the vehicle's value is hard to confirm. If your title is branded, mention it on our form so lenders serving Eugene can tell you upfront whether they can help. It takes about 3 minutes.

Can I get a title loan on a financed car in Eugene?

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 Oregon will tell you what they can offer.

Can I refinance my title loan in Eugene?

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 Oregon rules. Enter your details on our form to see what lenders in our network can offer you. It takes about 3 minutes.

Do I need to visit a store in Eugene?

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.
