About short term loans

A short-term or payday loan is a small-dollar loan, often used to cover unexpected expenses or to bridge a gap between paychecks. A payday loan is a financial solution that provides an alternative to bouncing checks or paying late fees. Payday loan is not a long-term financial solution and only can be used to cover short-term financial issues. A short term loan is a way for consumers to get the money they need in emergencies without the same hassle that is associated with other forms of consumer credit. Short term loans are relatively easy for most people to obtain - even if they have been denied other forms of credit due to their credit histories. Short term loans help avoid bouncing checks, credit card and checking account overdraft fees.

*APR: Annual Percentage Rate is expressed as the periodic interest rate times the number of compounding periods in a year. APR includes non-interest charges and fees. Short-term loans normally incur such a fees so APR requires detailed calculation.

APR EXAMPLE: A person borrows $500 until the next payday. The lender provides a two-week loan and charges a $75 fee. The lender will require the borrower to provide a postdated check for $575 to be held until the borrower's next payday. When the loan comes due, the borrower may repay the loan by allowing the lender to process the check or by bringing in the full payment of $575 in cash. The borrower may also have the option to “roll over” the loan by taking out another loan and paying an additional $75 for another two weeks. In this example, the annual percentage rate (APR) calculates to 391% for the original two-week loan of $500 with a $75 fee.

FINANCIAL IMPLICATONS: fees for short term loans that amount up to $500 may vary from $15 to $40 for $100 borrowed. Lenders may charge higher fees for loan amounts of more than $500. Lenders may charge additional fees for non-payment or non-sufficient funds. For example, lenders may charge $20 for non-sufficient funds and 10% of principle if the debt is 15 days late.

RENEWAL: depending on the lender, renewal may be automatic if the loan has not been repaid on the due date. Some lenders give debtors several options to choose from when taking out a loan: auto renew a loan, pay it in full or pay down the principle. The minimum renewal term is 15 days. Please note that you may be required to pay additional fees associated with loan renewal and loan interest rates may be reset as well.
