Cash Advance Loans in Utah

How Payday Loans Work in Utah

In Utah, payday loans are registered and regulated as deferred deposit loans. You write a check or authorize a debit for the amount you borrow plus the fee, and it is due on your next payday.

Every lender must be registered with the Utah Department of Financial Institutions. Utah does not cap the fee, so its rates are among the highest in the country, and it pays to compare the full cost before you sign.

Utah does limit how long a loan can run: a lender cannot charge interest more than 10 weeks after the loan is made.

What a Payday Loan Costs in Utah

Because Utah sets no fee cap, its payday rates are among the highest in the country.

These examples use a representative fee of about $25 per $100, near the Utah average, but your exact fee may be higher or lower.

We show it before you sign, so you can see exactly what the loan costs and make sure it is a manageable payment that fits your budget and your next paycheck.

Representative example: borrow $500 for 14 days. Utah does not cap the fee, so it varies by lender, but at a representative $25 per $100, near the Utah average, the fee is $125 and you repay $625 on your due date, about a 652% APR.

A different lender fee will change the total, and we show your exact numbers before you sign.

How Utah Law Protects You as a Borrower

• No rate cap, so compare carefully. Utah does not cap payday loan fees, so costs are among the highest in the country. Always compare the full cost before you borrow.
• A 10-week interest limit. A lender cannot charge interest on your loan more than 10 weeks after it is made, which limits how far the cost can run.
• A free extended payment plan. You can request an interest-free payment plan of at least four equal payments, once in any 12-month period or after 10 weeks of interest, at no extra charge.
• No criminal process. A lender cannot threaten you with criminal action to collect, and you cannot be jailed for an unpaid loan.
• 30 days notice before a lawsuit. Before suing, a lender must give you at least 30 days written notice of default and how to cure it or enter a payment plan.
• Registered lenders. Every payday lender must be registered with the Utah Department of Financial Institutions, which also handles consumer complaints.
