Georgia law and the bank-partner model

Georgia's Industrial Loan Act covers loans under $3,000, which is why Personify's minimum here is $3,100. Personify's "Who Makes the Loan" table assigns loans at or above 36% APR to First Electronic Bank, a Utah-chartered bank that exports Utah's lack of a rate cap. Consumer groups have challenged this structure; it remains in use as of October 22, 2026. Georgia residents with complaints can contact the state's financial regulator or the CFPB.

What is the maximum APR a Georgia lender can charge?

Georgia's Industrial Loan Act covers loans under $3,000, which is why Personify's minimum here is $3,100. For a bank-originated loan the practical ceiling is Personify's published 179.50%. A Georgia credit union is capped at 18% (28% for a Payday Alternative Loan) by federal rule, which is why we list credit unions first among alternatives.

How fast can Georgia residents get funded?

Next business day after e-signing by 11:59 PM Central — Georgia is in the Eastern time zone, so adjust the cut-off to local time. Your bank's posting rules add anything from minutes to a day.

How does the Rate Reduction program work for Georgia borrowers?

The same way everywhere: on eligible loans (APR above 35.99%), the APR drops 2 percentage points after every six consecutive months of on-time payments — 6 monthly, 12 semi-monthly or 13 bi-weekly payments — to a floor of 24.00%. Reductions are permanent; a late payment restarts the clock for the next one.

Where do I complain about a lender in Georgia?

Start with the lender (1-888-578-9546; [email protected]).
