When going to a traditional bank for cash loan, it is likely you will find that they will require a credit check in order to proceed. Even if you provide this information, there is never a guarantee, even after an in-depth application process that you may or may not be approved for. These types of stringent loan parameters usually eliminate those with poor credit history, including no credit or bad credit. You can expect interest rates that are sky high nearing the legal limit of 29% also. However, collateral lenders, such as Gems N' Loans, have been known to accommodate people in financial need, and do not require a credit check.
Why choose a pawn shop as a borrowing source? Simple, they will only ask you bring in an article of value in exchange for the loan. This is based on the item of value of course. The contracts are at time extendable depending upon the borrowers situation. With interest rates as low as 2%, the pawn broker is more likely not to land someone in to further debt resulting from not being able to pay back the loan on time.
