Short-term loans might be called different things, but they’re all designed to provide you with temporary financial relief.
Most lenders require you to:
- Be employed in your current position for approximately 90 days;
- Be at least 18 years old, and a US citizen or a permanent resident;
- Have an income of approximately $1,000 per month after tax withholdings; and
- Have a valid email address, work phone number and home phone number.
The amount a lender is willing to give you depends on how the lender evaluates a number of factors, including your state of residence and applicable legal restrictions (loans are not available in all states). Many lenders in our network will loan between $100 and $1,000.
Once the lender approves your loan and you accept the loan terms, your loan will be deposited directly in your bank account, usually as soon as the next day.
Bad credit, no credit or a past bankruptcy should not prevent you from obtaining a short-term loan. Lenders make the final decision, however, lenders in our network frequently work with customers with bad credit history and made it work for them.
It should only take a few minutes to complete our secure online form. After we receive your information, we immediately start looking for a lender that is willing to work with you. You should have a response from one of our lenders within minutes. Final approval and funding is often done in as little as 24 to 48 hours.
Some lenders will ask for your permission to access your information such as bank statements or income verification online, saving you from having to fax or email copies of those documents. However, your lender might need you to fax or email a copy of your bank statement, paycheck stubs or other information. If you do not have access to a scanner or printer, consider visiting Office Max, Kinkos or another office service provider. You should also have access to a printer so you can print a copy of your loan agreement. If you have questions after your loan is funded, you will need your lender’s contact information!
There is no cost to use stateloan.shop marketplace service. The actual cost of your loan may vary by lender. You will be provided information on the rates and fees before you accept the loan. Short-term loans are designed for emergency situations and are often less costly than late charges, NSF fees or reconnect fees for overdue utilities.
You may be allowed to secure more than one short-term loan at any given time, but this will depend on your state’s laws as well as your lender’s practices. If you have an outstanding short-term loan or other short-term loan, you should let your new lender know about it before you accept a new loan.
If you have selected the convenient and secure ACH payment option, your loan payment will be withdrawn from your bank account on its due date. This option is designed for convenience and helps you avoid potential late fees or default! If you need an extension on your loan, please contact your lender before you miss a payment (additional fees may be involved).
Each lender has its own late payment policy and fees. Check your loan documents for details or contact your lender directly. Some states may regulate or limit late fees.
We use industry-recognized security and advanced encryption technology to protect your personal information. Your information is transmitted and stored securely in an encrypted format. Please review our privacy policy for additional details.
You can use our service to get a new loan at any time (subject, of course, to state law restrictions). If you have recently taken out another short-term loan that is still outstanding, please inform your new lender before accepting a new loan.
The rules on extensions or “rollovers” varies among lenders and also may be regulated by state law. Some states allow for multiple rollovers while others do not allow it at all. If you need an extension on your loan, make sure to contact your lender before you miss any payments. Most lenders will work with you to help you avoid missing payments or defaulting on your loan.
