What Is a Credit Line?

A Line of Credit (LOC), sometimes called a credit line, is a set borrowing limit that can be used any time cash is needed. The borrower can withdraw cash as needed, until the limit is reached. As the loan is repaid, it can be borrowed again, much like a credit card but without a physical card.

When people need money to make ends meet or need some extra cash to pay for an unexpected bill or emergency, consumers with less-than-perfect credit typically seek out payday loans, but this normally isn’t the best option for most customers. This is because the sum total of the amount you borrowed from a payday lender, plus interest and fees that are often well over 300% APR, will come due on the consumer’s next pay day. Most often, the consumer’s financial situation has not yet recovered in such a short time, rendering them unable to repay the payday loan and forcing them to rollover the loan, thereby extending the interest period and incurring additional fees.

An open-end line of credit allows a person the flexibility to borrow cash over time to meet ongoing cash needs and to repay what has been borrowed with more flexible terms. In addition to offering much lower rates and fees than payday lenders, open-end lines of credit allow consumers to make only the minimum payment due in each billing cycle, making repayment fit more comfortably into your existing budget. Further, consumers can keep the account open as long as they wish, so they can have the cash they need when they need it.

NHCash.com loans are open-end, revolving lines of credit, meaning that customers make a minimum payment in each billing cycle. After 5 on-time payments, customers can request credit limit increases so that they have access to additional cash.

What Makes a Line of Credit With NHCash.com Different?

Line of Credit Vs. Payday Loan

Payday loans are typically very short loans with extremely high interest rates – generally much higher than installment loans or a line of credit. A lot of new users to NHCash wish they knew about the personal lines of credit we have before they took out a payday loan. This is because the rates are much more reasonable and the structure of the loan makes more sense for our borrowers to be successful in repaying their loans.

Line of Credit Vs. Title Loan

NHCash.com offers open-end revolving lines of credit that are unsecured. What does this mean for you? There is no pledged collateral for the loan – meaning, if you default on your loan, we will not repossess any of your personal property. We base our decision to give you a loan on hundreds of data points about you.

Line of Credit Vs. Pawn Shop

A pawn shop is often the first thing people think of when they need money fast. If you have valuable possessions, a pawn shop will typically pay you for your goods and then try to sell them at their store. By and large, pawn shops do not pay the true value for the goods, so you are losing something of value in exchange for less cash value than your goods are actually worth.
