Rates, fees & real cost

Fineday offers up to $2,000 for first-time qualified borrowers and up to $2,500 for repeat clients — a higher ceiling than most of its small-dollar peers. It charges a $30 late fee (for payments 3+ days late) and a $30 NSF fee, with no prepayment penalty, but it does not publish an APR before approval; expect a high triple-digit rate typical of the sector and read the disclosure before signing. (A third-party aggregator's '4.95–35.95%' figure is a boilerplate that does not apply here.)

№ 03

Fineday does not lend to residents of Arkansas, Connecticut, DC, Illinois, Maine, New Mexico, North Carolina, Maryland, New York, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Virginia, Vermont, Wisconsin, or West Virginia, with some returning-customer exceptions. Funding is typically next business day.
