LoanNow - Senior Software Engineer - Orange County, CA
PAYDAY LOANS ARE TRAPS
Imagine for a second that you have no credit card, your bank account is almost empty, and your car breaks down. You need cash and you need it fast.
You turn to a payday loan with an ABSURD 1000% interest rate that does NOTHING to rebuild your credit. Two weeks go by and your loan comes due. You're in the same situation, so your roll that loan into the next loan, and the next loan – the average cycle lasts 5 MONTHS and it’s a cycle that 12 MILLION Americans live in.
Over a quarter million payday loans are issued EVERY, SINGLE, DAY.
We think there is a better way.
