Frequently asked questions about payday loans/cash advances

What is a payday advance loan?

A quick and simple way to obtain cash needed between paydays.

Table of Contents:

A short term advance provides the cash needed to meet an immediate short-term cash flow problem. It is not a solution for longer term financial problems for which longer term financing may be more appropriate. You may want to discuss your financial situation with a nonprofit counseling service in your community. You will be charged additional fees if you renew/extend the advance.


How much can I get advanced until my next payday?

Your first time advance can be up to $1000!!! Your approval amount is determined by the following: monthly net income (we cannot advance more than you can afford to repay), length of current employment, if you currently have a payday advance (paycheck advances, pay day loans, short term loans, payday cash advances, etc) with another provider.

Upon approval, you will be contacted by phone to confirm the amount of your first cash advance and repayment date.

All loans provided are scheduled for repayment on your next payday up to 18 days!

If your next payday is 4 days or less from the application date, repayment will be scheduled on your following payday!

Notice: Having made application for check advances, pay day loans, short term loans, payday cash advances, paycheck advances, payday cash advances with more than one other provider may cause your application to be declined.


How much does it cost?

Our fee is $20 per $100 advanced.

How is my Due Date determined?

All loan due dates must be on your next scheduled pay date up to a maximum of 18 days.

• If you get paid once a week: Your Due Date will be the subsequent pay date.
• If you get paid twice a month or every other week: Your Due Date will be your next payday, unless that payday is less than 5 days out, in which case your Due Date will be the following payday.

Prepayment: You may prepay all or any part of the amount due at any time without penalty. If the advance is prepaid before the final installment date, you are entitled to a rebate of the unearned Finance Charge. The unearned portion shall be calculated on a pro-rata basis using a percentage derived by dividing the number of days from payment until maturity by the total number of days of the original loan term. Call Customer Service toll-free (877)369-6700 to schedule prepayment.

Can I extend my repayment date?

Certain states allow extensions or renewals on payday loans. You may also pay an additional amount to reduce your total principal and interest at anytime.

We encourage you not to extend payment of a cash advance loan, unless it's absolutely necessary. It is not our intent for your cash advance loan to become a long term financial obligation.

You will be charged additional fees if you choose to renew/extend rather than make payment in full on the original scheduled payment date.

With your extension of payment request, we will debit the interest earned fee portion on the original scheduled due date. This enables continued use of advanced funds until your next scheduled payment date (usually your next pay date) when the original advance amount plus additional interest fee will be due in full.

Can I revoke my ACH payment?

No. The ACH Authorization can only be revoked AFTER we have received payment in full of the amount owed. Because our advances are single payment advances (that is, we advance a sum of money that is to be repaid in a lump sum), we are permitted to require ACH repayment in accordance with the federal Electronic Funds Transfer Act ("EFTA").

Under The EFTA, a lender cannot require a consumer to repay a loan by means of preauthorized electronic funds transfers as a condition to approving the consumer's loan. The term "preauthorized electronic funds transfer" is narrowly defined by the EFTA to mean "an electronic funds transfer authorized to recur at substantially regular intervals." As explained by the Federal Reserve Staff in its official commentary to the EFTA, "Creditors may not require repayment of loans by electronic means on a preauthorized, recurring basis." 12 C.F.R. 205, Supplement I - Official Staff Commentary, at 10(e) (1) (Loan Payments). As a one-time payment, the repayment of an AmeriCash Advance loan is not encompassed by the EFTA's definition of "preauthorized electronic funds transfer," and is therefore permitted under the EFTA.
