Your state sets maximums for some products; your lender sets your actual offer.[4](#fn4)[5](#fn5) Straight talk ## What we'll always do, and what we never will. Short-term lending has a reputation problem, and some of it is earned. We'd rather be the site that says the uncomfortable parts out loud. **If a cheaper option exists, we'll tell you.** A credit union Payday Alternative Loan caps at 28% APR by federal rule. An employer advance costs nothing. Nonprofit credit counseling is free at [nfcc.org](https://www.nfcc.org). Check those before a short-term loan. - **Every lender is licensed in your state.** We verify it before they see a single request.[1](#fn1) - **Every rate is in writing before you sign.** APR, total cost, and payment schedule. Federal law requires it; we hold lenders to it.[4](#fn4) - **No fee to you, ever.** Lenders pay us a referral fee. You never pay NeededCash anything.[1](#fn1) - **No "guaranteed approval."** No licensed lender can promise that, and anyone who does is the opening line of a bad deal. - **No upfront fees to "release" a loan.** Licensed lenders deduct fees from the loan or bill them in payments. Pay-first is a scam, every time. - **Your information goes to lenders, not marketers.** And our [do-not-sell page](https://neededcash.com/do-not-sell/) lets you opt out of any sharing.

No. We're a free matching service. You tell us what you need, and licensed lenders in our network who serve your state decide whether to make you an offer. The lender sets your rate and terms and is who you repay. Lenders pay us a referral fee; you never pay us.[1](#fn1) ### Will checking my options hurt my credit? No. Matching uses a soft inquiry, which doesn't affect your score. If you accept a lender's offer and continue, that lender may run a full credit check, which can lower your score by a few points for a short time. You'll know before that happens.[3](#fn3) ### How fast can I get the money? If a lender approves you and you sign before their cutoff (often mid-afternoon), funds typically arrive the next business day. Some lenders offer same-day deposits for a fee. Title loans done in person can fund the same day.[2](#fn2) ### Can I get a loan with bad credit? Often, yes. Many lenders in our network weigh income, employment, and banking history more than a score, and title lenders look mainly at the vehicle. Expect a higher APR than someone with good credit. Our [bad credit loans](https://neededcash.com/#loans) page explains what's realistic. ### Do I keep my car with a title loan? Yes. The lender holds the title (or a lien on it) while you repay; you keep driving. If you stop paying, the lender can repossess the vehicle, which is the real risk of this product. Our [title loans](https://neededcash.com/#loans) page covers it in detail. ### Are payday loans legal in my state? It depends. About a third of states cap them at or near 36% APR or ban them; the rest allow them with limits on amount, term, and fees. Your [city page](https://neededcash.com/#near) states the rule for your state and links the regulator.[5](#fn5) ## Two minutes to find out *exactly* where you stand.
