Responsible Borrowing
Before taking out a loan, pay attention to the total loan cost, including interest and any additional charges. Never apply for a loan if you’re uncertain about your ability to repay the funds on time. Keep in mind that payday loans are not designed to meet your long-term needs and can be expensive if used irresponsibly. They are intended for small, short-term emergencies only.
At 1F Cash Advance, you receive all information about the loan upfront. This allows you to assess the real financial burden in advance. In case of long-term financial difficulties, consider alternatives first or turn to a credit counselor.
FAQ
Are payday loans allowed in Columbus, Ohio?
Yes, payday loans are legal in Ohio. However, the state regulates short-term lending through specific laws that set limits on loan terms, fees, and interest rates. 1F Cash Advance follows all Ohio lending regulations to provide safe and compliant financial services to residents.
How quickly can I get the cash once approved?
Most borrowers receive their funds by the next business day. If your loan is approved before 10:30 am on a weekday, same-day funding may be possible. If you apply in person and provide a post-dated check for the full repayment amount, you may receive instant cash on the spot.
Is a bank account required to get a payday loan?
In most cases, a bank account is needed to deposit the loan funds to you. However, you can apply in-store and provide a post-dated check. This option allows you to get cash directly at the location without a bank account needed.
Can I apply for a payday loan with bad credit?
Yes, you can easily qualify for a bad credit payday advance in Columbus or at other Ohio stores with us. A low credit score will not automatically disqualify you from getting approved. We look at your overall financial situation, including your income, current obligations, and payment history. No hard credit check is performed.
