APR Explained

An annual percentage rate (APR) is the annual rate charged for borrowing and is expressed as a percentage that represents the actual yearly cost of funds over the term of a payday loan. APR is the combination of the nominal interest rate and any other costs or fees involved in procuring the loan.

The APR on cash advance can range from 200% to 2,290% depending on: how the APR is calculated (nominal vs. effective), the duration of the loan, loan fees incurred, late payment fees, non-payment fees, loan renewal actions, and other factors. Keep in mind that the APR range is not your finance charge and your finance charge will be disclosed later on, if applicable. Alternatively, See a Representative Example.

LendingWing.com is not a lender and does not provide short-term loans but refers consumers to lenders who may provide such loans. For this reason, we are unable to supply you with an exact APR that you will be charged if you are approved for a cash advance. APRs vary according to the information supplied by you in your payday loan request and your lender. You will be given the APR, loan fees, and other terms by your lender when you are redirected to your loan agreement in the loan request process.

Some states have laws limiting the APR that a lender can charge you. APRs may range from 59% and 1386%. Loans from a state that has no limiting laws or loans from a lender not governed by state laws may have an even higher APR. The Annual Percentage Rate is the rate at which your loan accrues interest and is based upon the amount, cost and term of your loan, repayment amounts and timing of payments. Lenders are legally required to show you the APR and other terms of your loan before you execute a loan agreement.

We do not make any credit decisions. Independent, participating lenders that you may be connected to may perform credit checks with credit reporting bureaus, obtain credit reports, or otherwise verify your Social Security Number. Typically, lenders may conduct a credit check through alternative credit bureaus to determine creditworthiness, credit standing and/or credit capacity. By submitting your information, you agree to allow lenders to verify your information and check your credit.

Loans provided by independent, participating lenders in our network are designed to be repaid within a short amount of time. Short-term loans are not a solution for long-term debt and credit difficulties. Only borrow an amount that can be repaid on the date of your next pay period. Consider seeking professional advice regarding your financial needs, risks and alternatives to short-term loans. Non-payment of your loan could result in collection activities. Late payments of loans may result in additional fees or collection activities, or both. Each lender has its own terms and conditions, and its own renewal policy. Please familiarize yourself with your lender’s policies for further information.
