Is a Title Loan Different than a Registration Loan?

Is there a difference between a title loan and a registration loan? They are definitely very similar, but do you know which one is better?  

When is the last time you weren’t worried about your finances? Can you even remember? It seems like every time we almost have it together, some unexpected expense pops out of nowhere and throws our budget off track … again. What gives?

There is strength in knowledge, so being informed is the first step towards taking control of your budget. Do you know the difference between a title loan and a registration loan? It’s okay if you don’t, they are very similar. But it is important to know the difference, especially if you live in Arizona.

What is a Title Loan vs. a Registration Loan?

Currently only available in Arizona, a registration loan is a combination of a payday loan and a title loan. LoanMart does not do registration loans.

Hold up! What is a payday loan? According to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, a payday loan is a “short-term, high cost loan, generally for $500 or less, that is typically due on your next payday.” Now that you know what a payday loan is, you will better understand what a registration loan is.

A registration loan requires that the borrower have a vehicle registered in their name in order to get approved. A qualified free-and-clear vehicle title also in the borrower’s name is not required to receive this type of loan.

The catch of a registration loan is that payment is due in full on the day of the borrowers next pay date. This can be stressful because the borrower needs to use a large sum of money from their paycheck in order to pay off the loan, and this brings them right back to square one: they are low on cash again.

While a title loan does require that you provide a free-and-clear title with your name on it, they do not demand you pay back your entire loan just a few weeks after you take out the loan.

A title loan is a way to use your qualified free-and-clear vehicle title as collateral to borrow funds.
