Frequently Asked Questions — Oregon
Can active-duty military get payday loans in Oregon?
Active-duty service members and their dependents are protected by the Military Lending Act (MLA), which caps APR at 36% — far below typical payday loan rates of 36% APR. Traditional high-interest payday loans are effectively prohibited for covered borrowers. PrimeLendings only works with MLA-compliant lenders for military applicants.
What is the Military Lending Act (MLA) and how does it affect loans in Oregon?
The MLA is a federal law that caps the Military Annual Percentage Rate (MAPR) at 36% for active-duty service members, spouses, and dependents. It also prohibits mandatory arbitration and requires lenders to disclose MLA protections. All lenders in PrimeLendings' network are MLA-compliant and will not offer covered borrowers loans that exceed the 36% MAPR.
What SCRA protections apply to military borrowers in Oregon?
The Servicemembers Civil Relief Act (SCRA) caps interest on pre-service loans at 6% APR while on active duty, requires written notification to lenders, and provides other financial protections. PrimeLendings lenders in Oregon honor all SCRA requirements.
What are the best loan options for military members in Oregon?
Better alternatives for military borrowers in Oregon include: military credit union loans (Navy Federal, USAA), military emergency relief funds (Army Emergency Relief, Air Force Aid Society, Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society), allotment loans, and MLA-compliant installment lenders. PrimeLendings can match you with MLA-compliant lenders when these other options aren't available.
Are military dependents protected under the MLA in Oregon?
Yes. MLA protections extend to spouses and dependents of active-duty service members in Oregon. Dependents qualify for the same 36% MAPR cap and MLA borrower protections as the service member.
