Understanding the Cost
What you pay depends on the APR, fees, and repayment period.
Payday loan example: At $15 per $100 borrowed, a $900 loan would cost approximately 15% of the principal. Due within 2-4 weeks.
Longer-term cost: At a common rate of around 30% APR over 12 months results in predictable monthly payments. Total interest depends on the rate and term.
Always review the total cost of borrowing – look at what you will pay over the entire loan. Licensed lenders must disclose all costs upfront.

- Have a repayment plan before signing anything
- Do not settle for the first offer – rates differ significantly
