FAQs
What is a payday loan?
A payday loan is a short-term, high-interest loan that allows you to borrow against your paycheck.3 Repayment is due on your next payday unless you roll the loan over. You can apply for payday loans online or in person through a local lender.
Are payday loans bad?
Payday loans generally have a negative reputation due to their high interest rates and fees. Payday lending can also lead to a cycle of debt if you continuously roll the loan over versus paying it off on your next payday. Compared to personal loans, payday loans are often a more expensive way to borrow.
How do payday loans work?
Payday loans work by allowing you to access some of your future pay. You can get cash the same day and repay it when you get paid again. Payday lenders can charge fees for payday loans, though fees (and loan amounts) are typically capped by state law.4
Do payday loans check credit?
It’s common to see advertisements for payday loans without a credit check or payday loans with bad credit accepted. Payday lenders often don’t require a minimum credit score to borrow. Approval for a payday loan more often hinges on your income and whether you have a bank account.
What do you need for a payday loan?
Fast payday loans often have minimal requirements to apply and get approved. Lenders may ask you for a valid, government-issued photo ID, a copy of your paystubs, and a bank statement or your bank account number and routing number. You’ll also need to provide some basic personal information like your address and phone number.14
MyPay, on the other hand, requires only a Chime Checking Account with a qualifying direct deposit. With MyPay there are no fees typically associated with payday loans or other types of instant loans.
