How Do Installment Loans Work?
Installment loans are personal loans a borrower uses to pay for unexpected expenses (home repair, unexpected bill, car expenses, etc.). Unlike a payday loan, the repayment period on an installment loan is extended over a longer period.1 If approved,2 the amount you receive may vary depending on your state, your income and standard underwriting criteria.

An installment loan is a personal loan that allows you more time to repay than a traditional payday loan.1 Installment loans at ACE allow you to repay the loan in scheduled payments (installments) that are substantially equal in amount. At ACE, you can choose to repay early without penalty, which may save you money on interest and fees (where applicable).
