North Carolina Payday Loans

Since 2001, cash advances have been prohibited in North Carolina. Prior to that, there was a statute that permitted them but it expired without the legislature moving forward to renew or extend it. In addition to the ban, the North Carolina Consumer Finance Act has stipulations that make it impossible for payday lenders to stay in business. Since the small loan interest rate cap is 36 percent annually, payday lenders cannot operate effectively. Cash advances are designed to provide short-term relief to consumers but in order to make the funds available to a wide range of customers, these businesses generally charge over 300 percent APR.

Though payday lenders are scarce and technically prohibited in North Carolina, cities like Charlotte and Raleigh still have lenders.
