No one thing comes up often enough to count as a theme.

What it costs

Capped by Texas law

Installment lenders need an OCCC licence and Texas sets the maximum they may charge. Ask for the total of all payments in dollars, not just the monthly figure.

Before you go

What to take, and what to ask before you sign.

Bring these

Their website doesn’t list documents. Call ahead and ask what to bring.

Ask these at the counter

1
What is the total of all payments, in dollars?
Not just the monthly figure. Ask whether insurance is added, and whether it is optional.
2
What happens if I’m late?
Ask for the late fee in dollars and whether they call your employer or references.
3
Can I pay it off early?
Ask them to confirm there is no charge for paying early.

A cheaper route

Before you borrow here, ask a credit union about a small-dollar loan.

A Payday Alternative Loan (PAL) from a federal credit union is $200–$2,000, repaid over 1–12 months, capped at 28% a year plus a $20 fee at most. You usually join the credit union first, which can take a day.
