- Collect three or more offers and compare them on APR, not on the advertised rate.
- Confirm the Georgia licence with the regulator named above before committing.
- Keep the amount to the expense; an approval is not a reason to take more.
- Write down the purpose of the loan and your repayment plan before you apply.
- If debt is already a struggle, talk to a nonprofit credit counsellor before borrowing more.
