FAQS

Online Installment Loan FAQs

Q  What is an installment loan?

A Check Into Cash installment loans are medium-term loans that offer more money than payday loans and a longer period of time for repayment. Installment loans can be paid early without a pre-payment penalty.

Q  Can I pay my installment loan early? Will paying early save me money?

A Yes. Paying your installment loan before the maturity date is allowed without a pre-payment penalty. Paying your loan early does save you finance charges, since interest is charged on a daily basis on any outstanding principal amount.

Q  How much does an installment loan cost?

A The finance charge for installment loans is different per loan because the amount of interest charged per loan is based upon the principal loan amount and the length of the loan term.

Q  How much can I borrow with an installment loan?

A Check Into Cash offers installment loans from $300 to $1,500. You will qualify for an amount based on your current income.

Q  What is the difference between a payday advance and an installment loan?

A A Check Into Cash installment loan has a longer term than a payday loan and typically has a higher principal loan amount. Also, while payday loans are designed to be paid off on their specific due date, an installment loan involves regular payments spread out over the term of the loan, eventually paying off the loan.

A Once you apply, Check Into Cash will review your information to see if you qualify for an installment loan. If you are conditionally approved for an installment loan, we will notify you on the website at the time of submission.

Q  When will my installment loan be due?

A As part of the application process Check Into Cash will review your information to see if you qualify for an installment loan. If you are conditionally approved for an installment loan we will notify you on the website at the time of submission. Your application could be approved for a variety of products and will be presented with the options to choose between them.

Q  Do I have to send in documents for an installment loan?

A We may need information, such as a bank statement and/or pay stub, in addition to your online application.

Q How long does it take to get an installment loan?

A It takes just minutes to fill out our online installment loan application. An approval is given immediately on the website at the time of submission. Once the application is received, a customer service representative will then verify your application information. If all information is verified, your funds will usually be available on the next business day.

Q Do you check my credit rating for an installment loan?

A Yes. We gather information from several risk assessment and national databases.

Q Can I have a payday advance and installment loan?

A No. Check Into Cash only allows you to have one credit product at a time.

  • A verifiable source of income
  • An open and active checking account
  • A working home and/or cell and work phone number
  • A valid email address
  • To be a citizen or permanent resident of the United States

 

Q  How do I receive the money?

A Once your installment loan is finalized, the money will be electronically deposited into your checking account. Typically, funds are received on the next business day.

Q  Can I still get an installment loan if I have bad credit?

A Yes. If you’ve had bad credit in the past, you may still be able to get an installment loan.

The Annual Percentage Rate (APR) for payday loans varies in each state and depends on the advance amount, fees, and terms of the transaction. The APR for a $100 single-payment payday loan may range from 260.71% to 782.14% on 14 day terms. As a member of CFSA, Check Into Cash abides by the spirit of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) as applicable to collect past due accounts. Delinquent accounts may be turned over to a third party collection agency which may adversely affect your credit score. Non-sufficient funds and late fees may apply. Automatic renewals are not available. Renewing a loan will result in additional finance charges and fees.
