Installment Loans in Alabama

Alabama Installment Loan Regulations
Regulator: Alabama State Banking Dept.
Governing Law: Alabama Deferred Presentment Services Act (Code of Alabama § 5-18A)
Recent Change: 2015: Alabama created the Deferred Presentment Services database — lenders must check borrower's outstanding loan balance before issuing a new one; borrowers cannot have more than $500 outstanding at any time
Borrower Tip: Alabama prohibits rollovers — once a loan is due it must be repaid in full. If you can't repay, ask your lender about an extended repayment arrangement before the due date to avoid a returned check fee.
