Flex loans were introduced in Tennessee in 2015 by the Flexible Credit Act. They’re available online and through brick-and-mortar lenders.

Tennessee flex loans are a type of personal loan that provide access to a revolving line of credit. Within your credit limit, you can borrow what you need, when you need it. As you repay, you replenish your available credit, allowing you to borrow for future needs.

The maximum credit limit for a Tennessee flex loan is $4,000. They can be secured or unsecured. Unlike other types of loans, they can be repaid in full without a prepayment penalty, as established by law.

Line of credit
An online line of credit is a form of revolving credit that allows you to borrow up to a certain limit and tap the funds as you wish. You only pay interest and fees on what you borrow. A Tennessee flex loan is one type of line of credit. Other types of lines of credit that can be found online include those secured by home equity or vehicle titles, which are called home equity and title lines of credit.

Installment loan
Online installment loans are a common type of personal loan that provide a lump sum of cash that you repay through regular installments. It’s often used for one-time costs such as emergency home or auto repairs or debt consolidation. In Tennessee, qualified borrowers may be able to receive up to $10,000 or more in funding.

Title loans
With an online title loan, you pledge your vehicle as collateral for a personal loan. Because they’re secured, online title loans can be helpful if you have an urgent financial need and don’t qualify for other types of credit. However, if you default, the lender may take possession of your vehicle. In Tennessee, title loans are limited to $2,500 by law.

Payday loans
Online payday loans — also called “check advance loans” — give you a cash advance on your paycheck to help you cover immediate financial needs. Repayment is due in full at the end of the loan term — typically seven to 31 days. In Tennessee, payday loans are capped at $500 by law, but funding amounts rarely exceed $425. Lenders can charge no more than 15% in interest and fees on the value of the loan, but if borrowing is repeated, this can result in an APR of over 400%. Tennessee consumer protections also limit borrowers to no more than three payday loans at one time.

In Tennessee, borrowers with bad credit have several options for online loans. These include:

  • Online flex loans
  • Online lines of credit
  • Online title loans
  • Online payday loans

Because a low credit score signals a risk to lenders, online loans for bad credit usually come with high interest rates. Always research your options to find the best rates for your credit profile. Also consider options that don’t involve borrowing from a lender, such as asking family or friends for help, selling unwanted items or picking up side work to boost income.

CashNetUSA offers online flex loans statewide in Tennessee. Designed to help borrowers with less-than-perfect credit meet emergency financial needs, our flex loan can be used as an alternative to payday loans. It’s available throughout the state including the following cities:

Borrowers in Tennessee who wish to file a complaint about their online loan should first attempt to address the problem with their lender. If working with the lender doesn’t resolve the issue, borrowers should consider filing a complaint with the Tennessee Department of Financial Institutions.
