Frequently Asked Questions

$500 is what you can qualify for as a first-time applicant, although the maximum lending limit at CashAmericaToday scales up to $1000. However, if you pay your first loan on time, we will reward you with a higher borrowing limit by adding an extra $100 on your next loan.

While you are eligible to apply for a loan at 18 years old as per Federal law, CashAmericaToday requires you to be at least 25 years old to qualify for an online installment loan to ensure smooth and responsible lending.

There is no rigid monthly income requirement to qualify for our online short-term funding options. However, CashAmericaToday does require you to submit steady monthly income proof (which needs to be directly deposited into an active checking account) so that we can fairly assess your repayment capability.

No. CashAmericaToday will not affect your personal credit score because we do not perform traditional hard credit checks through major credit bureaus like Experian, Equifax, or TransUnion during our application process. Instead, we protect your credit rating by utilizing an alternative background verification process to securely assess your regular income stability and approval eligibility.

CashAmericaToday typically transfers your installment loan funds within 1 to 2 business days after final approval. However, if your online loan application and verification are fully completed before our 4:00 PM EST daily cutoff time, you can expect your funds on the very same business day. If you clear verification after the 4:00 PM EST daily cutoff time, or over weekends and banking holidays, your money will be deposited on the next business day.

CashAmericaToday specializes in approving online installment loans for borrowers with bad credit, poor credit, or no credit history by evaluating your steady monthly income rather than your traditional FICO score. As an online direct lender, we ensure equal access to credit by focusing on your current repayment capability instead of judging you by your bruised past credit history.
