FAQ
These loans are high-interest, short-term loans designed to be paid back with your next paycheck. Usually, the total amount of the loan becomes due within two to three weeks after the loan is issued. Most people make a partial payment and then take out a new payday loan to repay the existing balance. This gets them into the payday loan trap, and it becomes difficult to eliminate these loans and find financial relief.
Unfortunately, even the most responsible payday loan borrowers face a situation where they can’t pay back the outstanding amount by the due date. They can’t even secure a new loan to cover the difference.
If you can’t pay on time, you may start receiving calls from debt collectors. And your outstanding balance will skyrocket due to the very high interest rates typical to almost all payday loans.
If you want to repay your debts without using the services of a consolidation company, there are other options to consolidate debt. You can take out a personal loan (a debt consolidation loan) with which you repay your existing credit card debt and other unsecured debts. This allows you to consolidate your current payday loans with one consolidation loan.
The creditor will perform a credit check to assess your creditworthiness. A personal loan usually has a lower interest rate than a short-term loan. You can get a personal loan at a relatively lower interest rate if your financial and credit situation is good. The annual percentage rate for payday loans can even go up to 521%. The repayment terms and conditions of consolidation loans are also relatively better. You will have to make fixed payments every month to repay the new debt consolidation loan.
We can help you settle your payday loans if you cannot repay your loans in full. Through the settlement, you can get rid of your unsecured debts fast.
Usually, the payday loan companies do not convey any information about you to the credit bureaus. Your consolidation program also does not appear on your credit report. Therefore, enrolling in a consolidation program won’t affect your credit score. Your credit score may improve after you repay all your debts.

An Extended Payment Plan, or EPP.
An EPP will help you pay off the outstanding balance on your payday loans, usually in four equal installments, without added fees or interest.
Under an EPP, if your payday loan company is a member of the Community Financial Services Association of America (CFSA), they can’t:
- Compel you to repay the loans
- Threaten or force you to make immediate payments
- Charge you additional fees for this option. In addition, they will be required to give you your next four paydays to repay them.
If you have taken a loan from a CFSA member, then you can ask for an EPP. After you submit your application, you’ll get a new statement detailing your modified loan agreement. The terms will indicate the amount of the four equal payments you will need to make over the next four paydays. There will be no new fees or interest charged for these new terms.
You can make payments in cash or use the ACH debit option to have the charges withdrawn automatically from your account on payday. Once you have set up the EPP, you need to inform the lender. Most lenders won’t allow you to change the payment method after you have signed the new agreement.
Under federal law, you can apply for an EPP with each payday lender only once per year. However, state laws vary on this, so you should check the laws in your state. The lender will be obligated to follow the law in your state.
Also, remember that you can’t take out another payday loan until you have paid off the entire amount due on your EPP.
The consequences of failing to pay off your EPP loan can be severe. Your lender may charge you an additional EPP fee, along with other charges and penalties. They can also increase the payment amount you must make each pay period. They can sue you for principal, interest, and penalties, as well. So, it can be a financial disaster that you should try to avoid. Before entering into an EPP, be sure that you can make the payments, and make them on time, every time they’re due.
Carefully read the information on the payday loan lender’s website and look for the CFSA logo.
If the company has a physical address, then it may be better to go in person to see the blue oval logo yourself. It should be prominently on display somewhere in their office.
If the CFSA member agency doesn’t agree to give you an Extended Payment Plan, you can call the CFSA Hotline 888-572-9329 between 9 and 5 Eastern Time. You can also register a complaint at the CFSA website.
