Eligibility is based on the state where you live. What is a Line of Credit Loan? It’s an unsecured (unsecured means there’s no asset given as security on the loan) open line of credit that gives you the ability to apply once and get cash at any time (up to your credit limit). What is an Installment Loan? With an installment loan there’s a set amount you borrow and pay back over several months in fixed, predictable payment amounts. What do I need to apply for a loan? Photo ID Proof of Income Who is eligible for a loan? The minimum age to be eligible is 18 or the state minimum, whichever is higher. U.S. citizens are eligible for the services offered by Advance Financial. Permanent resident / green card holders are also eligible to apply. The Military Lending Act (32 C.F.R. § 232) prohibits lenders from charging service members more than 36% APR on credit extended to covered borrowers. APRs for the Line of Credit and Installment Loans offered by Advance Financial fall outside of the MLA limits and as a result loans cannot be issued to these applicants. Active duty service members and their covered dependents are considered “covered borrowers” under the Military Lending Act. What does APR mean? APR is short for annual percentage rate and is the interest you pay on a loan on a yearly basis. What APR does Advance Financial charge on a Line of Credit Loan? Advance Financial Line of Credit Loans range from 240% APR up to 450% APR. What is the APR charged for an Advance Financial Installment Loan? An Installment Loan with Advance Financial offers a fixed APR. The APR is determined based on your state of residence, the amount of your loan and the length of time your loan is outstanding.

Is there any fee for early payoff of my loan?
