Loan Cost Examples for California (Applies at This San Diego Location)
| Cash You Receive | Term | APR (est.) | Fee / Interest | Total Due |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| $85 | 14 days | 460.08% | $15 | $100 |
| $170 | 14 days | 460.08% | $30 | $200 |
California caps the fee for a payday advance at 15% of the face amount of the check you write, and the face amount may not exceed $300 (Cal. Fin. Code §§ 23035, 23036). Because the cap is measured against the face rather than the cash, you receive the face amount minus the fee – so the largest advance available in California is $255 on a $300 check. The lender may hold the check for up to 31 days. Examples show a 14-day term at the maximum lawful fee; a lender may charge less. No additional fee may be charged for an extension or a payment plan.
