When I pay off my Line of Credit, do I need to reapply the next time I need money?

You can continue using your original Line of Credit. As long as you continue to make on-time payments on the money you withdraw, you can continue to withdraw funds up to your maximum approved credit until your Line of Credit expires (at which time you can apply to renew it).

What is the status of my loan?

Puedes revisar los detalles de tu préstamo iniciando una sesión en tu cuenta en línea, chateando o llamándonos al (844)562-6480. Si tienes preguntas sobre un préstamo recibido en una sucursal, póngase en contacto con la sucursal para obtener más detalles.

When can I reapply after payoff?

In most states, you can apply right away once your payment is made in cash or with a debit card. When payments are made through an electronic withdrawal directly from your bank account, it can take 3 to 5 days for that payment to clear. Once the payment clears, you are eligible to reapply for a new loan. Please note, some states require a waiting period between loans. For example, in Florida, customers must wait 24 hours between payoff and ability to reloan.

What if I cannot pay the amount due on the due date?

If you are unable to make your upcoming payment, please contact us at (844)562-6480 to discuss available payment options. You can also reach out to your local store for more information. In some states, refinance options are available.
