Why Denver Residents Turn to Short-Term Loans
Many Denver residents turn to short-term loans when expenses outpace income. Rents across Colorado have climbed sharply — some renters have seen monthly costs rise by $1,500 or more since 2020 — while wages haven’t kept pace.1
51.1%
Colorado renters who are “cost-burdened” — spending 30%+ of gross income on housing
80%+
Cost-burdened rate among Colorado renter households earning under $45,000 per year
68.8%
Colorado residents with incomes under $50,000 who reported spending equal to or more than their income (2024 National Financial Capability Study)
25%

Your Rights as a Payday Loan Borrower in Colorado
Colorado law requires every licensed lender to follow these rules:
- Cancel within 24 hours. You can rescind any payday loan by 5:00 p.m. the next business day — no penalty, no questions.4
- APR must be disclosed. Your loan agreement must clearly state the Annual Percentage Rate.
- Pay off early, anytime. No prepayment penalties — and the lender must refund any prorated fees.3
- 36% APR cap. No Colorado borrower can be charged more, including by online or mail lenders.3
- File a complaint. If a lender breaks the rules, contact the Colorado Attorney General’s Office.
- Military members. The federal Military Lending Act adds extra protections, including a ban on wage garnishment for payday loan debt.
Watch for unlicensed lenders. Some online payday lenders attempt to operate outside Colorado law by partnering with out-of-state banks or tribal entities. Colorado’s 2023 law specifically targets these arrangements. Before borrowing, verify that any lender is licensed with the Colorado Department of Law.
Customer Notice
Payday loans should not be used for long-term financial needs. They are designed for small, short-term emergencies and urgent expenses. Make sure you can repay the loan on time before applying to avoid financial and credit consequences. People with ongoing money problems and credit issues should refrain from borrowing and seek credit counseling.
FAQ
Can I get a payday loan in Denver with bad credit?
1F Cash Advance accepts applicants with bad and no credit. We look beyond just your credit score and assess your overall financial situation, including your income, employment status, current debts, and recent payment history.
How fast will I receive the funds?
The common funding times are as soon as the next business day of approval. Applicants approved before 10:30 am on weekdays can receive the loan funds on the same day they apply. Just note that the terms also depend on your bank's cut-off times.
What should I do if I can't repay my loan on time?
In Colorado, late payments may result in an NSF fee of up to $25 and involve credit consequences if the loan goes into delinquency. If you find yourself unable to repay the loan on time, contact the number specified in your loan agreement to discuss your options. Colorado laws allow for a rollover or an extended payment plan.
