Tips for Borrowers
Before accepting a loan or cash advance, consider:

Borrow responsibly and only borrow what you need.
Warning About Predatory Lending
Predatory lending practices may include extremely high interest rates, unclear terms, pressure tactics, or loans that trap borrowers in cycles of debt. If an offer seems unclear or unaffordable, do not accept it. You have the right to ask questions and decline any offer.
