Payday Loans
Max. amount $500
Payday loans are emergency financing options designed for small unexpected expenses, such as minor repairs, medical bills, or everyday costs. In Boulder, you can borrow up to $500 and repay the funds over a period of at least 6 months. This flexibility makes managing debt easier.
Installment Loans
Max. amount $5,000
With an installment loan, you can get up to $5,000 upfront and adjust the repayment schedule to fit your budget. The money is repaid in fixed installments over 2–24 months. This type of loan can help you cover big purchases, consolidate debt, or finance long-term projects.
How The Loan Process Works
Complete our straightforward application in 3 easy steps:
Fill out a form at a store
Visit our location and let our professional team get you through the process. The application usually takes 5 minutes to complete.
Wait for an approval decision
Our lenders simplify the underwriting process for faster decisions. You will receive a response in a few minutes.
Get your funds
If approved, the loan might be issued in cash right away or deposited into your bank account on the same or the next business day.*
*Approval is subject to qualifications. Lenders review your income, financial obligations, employment, and payment history to determine your loan eligibility. A hard credit check may be performed if you decide to move forward with a lender.
Loans originated before 10:30 am on weekdays are typically funded by the end of the same day. Approvals after 10:30 am, on weekends, or on holidays will be processed on the next banking day. For instant cash, you need to provide a post-dated check covering the loan principal plus interest.

- Valid email and cell phone number

Making Smart Choices with Short-Term Loans
Payday loans are small borrowing options designed for unexpected expenses and emergency situations. Before obtaining one, make sure you really need a loan and can afford it. While a repayment period of at least 6 months makes it easier to manage your obligations, it may also result in a higher total cost because of more interest accumulated over time. Before applying, calculate your payments and the amount due to ensure the repayment schedule is manageable.
At 1F Cash Advance, we outline all the terms upfront so that you can make an informed decision. Make sure you understand the APR, fees, and repayment schedule before signing — the CFPB reports that unexpected fees and interest charges are the most common payday loan complaint nationwide, with complaint volume up 24% in 2024.1 Don’t take out loans if you have no clear plan for repayment, and seek professional counseling if you face ongoing financial challenges.
FAQ
Can I legally get a payday loan in Colorado?
Payday loans in Colorado are legal but come with a 36% APR cap to protect state residents from the excessive costs of traditional payday loan options.
What is the maximum amount I can get with your loans?
You can borrow up to $500 for at least 6 months through 1F Cash Advance. Installment loans offer larger amounts of up to $5,000. Lenders will assess your financial situation and ability to repay to determine the maximum amount you can qualify for.
How quickly will I get my loan funds?
You can expect your funds to drop into your bank account as soon as the next business day, once you receive approval. Some borrowers may receive money the same day if they finalize their loans before 10:30 am on weekdays. In-store applicants who get loans against post-dated checks may also qualify for instant cash loans.
Is it possible to qualify for your loans with bad credit?
You're welcome to apply regardless of your credit score. Approval depends on lender criteria. At 1F Cash Advance, lenders consider more than just your FICO rating to gain a clear picture of your overall financial situation.
What alternative quick loan options are available in Boulder?
Boulder residents who are looking for cheaper options can request payday alternative loans from credit unions, with APRs capped at 28%. For more flexibility, you can also consider credit cards if you meet an issuer’s eligibility criteria (at least fair credit is typically required). People who need a higher amount can turn to personal loans or secured loans.
Is it possible to obtain a loan on weekends?
Our Boulder store is open on Saturday until 6 pm, so you can visit us in person and get cash on hand right after approval, provided that you borrow against a post-dated check. Alternatively, you can apply online 24/7 without leaving your home. If so, loan funds will be deposited directly into your bank account on the next banking day.
What should I do if I am unable to repay my loan on time?
Contact payment center representatives at the phone number specified in the loan agreement at least one day before the due date to discuss your options. In some cases, you may be offered payment deferment. Late fees in Colorado may be up to $25.
