Everything you need to know about applying, borrowing, rates, repayment, and more. Can't find what you're looking for? Our team is here to help.
You can apply online in just a few minutes from your phone, tablet, or computer — or stop by a Check n Go store near you. Fill out a short, secure application, get a quick decision, review your terms, and receive your cash if approved.
You'll need three simple things: a valid government-issued photo ID, proof of a regular income, and an active checking account that has been open for at least 30 days.
Most people complete the online application in just a few minutes. Once submitted, you'll receive a quick decision rather than waiting days for an answer.
Yes. You can choose whichever is more convenient. Online applications offer next-business-day funding for approved applicants, while in-store visits can put cash in your hands the same day.
No appointment is needed. You can walk into any Check n Go location during business hours with your ID, proof of income, and checking account details to get started.
Check n Go offers payday loans, installment loans, and cash advances. Payday loans and cash advances are smaller amounts repaid on your next payday, while installment loans let you borrow more and repay over fixed monthly payments.
Depending on your state and the product you choose, you can apply to borrow from $200 up to $5,000. The exact amount available depends on your situation and applicable state law.
A payday loan is a smaller amount repaid in a single lump sum on your next payday. An installment loan lets you borrow a larger amount and pay it back over fixed, predictable monthly payments — which can be easier to budget for bigger expenses.
A cash advance, sometimes called a payday advance, gives you quick access to cash for short-term needs. You can apply online or visit a store and often walk out with money the same day.
It depends on how much you need and how quickly you can repay. For a small, short-term gap, a payday loan or cash advance may fit. For a larger amount or more time to repay, an installment loan with monthly payments may be a better choice.
The cost depends on the loan amount, the product, your state, and the repayment term. Every loan agreement spells out the rate, fees, and total repayment upfront, so you'll know exactly what you'll owe before you sign.
APR (annual percentage rate) expresses the yearly cost of borrowing, including fees. It's the single best number for comparing loan offers fairly. Short-term loans often carry higher APRs because they're designed to be repaid quickly.
No. Check n Go believes in clear, upfront terms. Your rate, fees, and repayment schedule are all shown before you sign, with no hidden charges and no surprises.
No. There is no prepayment penalty. If you pay your loan off early, you may even save on interest.
To apply, you generally need to be at least 18 years old (or the legal age in your state), have a steady source of income, a valid government-issued ID, and an active checking account. Approval depends on meeting legal, regulatory, and underwriting requirements.
Your credit score is just one factor. Check n Go reviews a fuller picture of your situation, so all credit types are welcome to apply — including bad or limited credit.
How a loan affects your credit depends on the lender and product. What matters most is your repayment behavior — paying on time helps protect your standing, while missed payments can have a negative effect.
Yes. For most products you'll need an active checking account that has been open for at least 30 days, with a routing and account number, so funds can be deposited and repayments processed.
If you apply online and are approved, your funds are typically deposited as soon as the next business day. If you apply in store and are approved, you can often receive cash the same day.
For approved online applications, funds are usually deposited into your checking account as soon as the next business day. Exact timing can depend on your bank's processing times.
Yes — if you apply in store and are approved, you can often walk out with cash the same day. Online applicants typically receive funds as soon as the next business day.
Repayment depends on your product. A payday loan or cash advance is typically repaid in a single payment on your next payday, while an installment loan is repaid over fixed monthly payments. Your exact schedule is shown in your loan agreement.
If you think you may have trouble repaying, contact Check n Go as soon as possible to discuss your options. Borrowing responsibly means only taking out what you can comfortably repay on time.
Yes. There is no prepayment penalty, so you're free to pay your loan off early — and doing so may reduce the interest you pay.
For many loans, repayment is processed automatically from your checking account on the scheduled due date. Your loan agreement will explain exactly how and when payments are collected.
Yes. Your data and identity are protected with bank-level security and encryption standards at every step of the application process.
