When will I receive my money?
Generally, you will receive your money the same day your loan is approved.
However, there are two processes that must be completed before you receive your
money. Therefore, under normal circumstances, if you apply today, you should
have your money today. However, there are some details to consider.
-
Planet Cash Affiliates can only process your application and create a funds
transfer during normal business hours.
Planet Cash Affiliates are typically open from 10am-6pm on Monday-Friday and
10am-2pm on Saturday. However, your Affiliate may be different, their hours
should be posted on their About Us page after you begin your application. If
you submit your application before 2 pm on Monday-Friday or before 10 am on
Saturday, we will have enough time to process your application. If you submit
after these hours or on Sunday, we will process your application first thing on
the next business day. In addition, our ability to quickly process your
application depends on our ability to contact you.
-
The loan agreement must be signed by 3:30 PM CST in order for you to receive
your funds the same day.
After we receive your signed contract, we will initiate a funds transfer.
Unless you are opting to receive your funds via ACH (see "
What are the three methods for recieveing my loan proceeds?"
below), a contract signed by 3:30 PM CST on a non-holiday weekday will give
your lender and the banking system enough time to transfer your loan proceeds
the same day. However, if you sign your loan agreement after this time, the
next business day will be the earliest possible time for funds to be available.
-
Bank Transfers do not occur on Weekends or Holidays.
If you submit your application on a weekend or on a bank holiday, the banking
system will not deliver your funds until the following business day.
What are the three Methods for
receiving my loan proceeds?
FIRST LOAN
-
Wire Transfer - Your loan proceeds are electronically transferred into
your existing bank account. A wire transfer can have your money in your account
within half an hour if the loan agreement is signed before 3:30 PM CST on a
non-holiday week day. Later loans will be delivered via other
methods.
-
The Planet Cash Card (Not Yet Available)- The fastest way to
get your money. If you already have a Planet Cash Card, your funds can be
transferred to it within minutes.
SUBSEQUENT LOANS
-
The Planet Cash Card (Not Yet Available) - The fastest way to get your
money. Upon loan approval, you will be sent a Planet Cash re-loadable debit
card. Once you receive the card, subsequent loans can be securely delivered to
this card within minutes. You can use the card anywhere Visa or Mastercard
is accepted or you can get cash from almost any ATM. The Planet Cash Card
carries many benefits and is a $10 value if purchased by itself. However, we
will send you one free of charge with your first loan. While you may opt out of
receiving your free Planet Cash Card, subsequent loans will be delivered via
ACH if you do so. (see www.theplanetcashcard.com
for further details)
-
ACH - If you choose not to receive subsequent loan proceeds to a Planet
Cash Card, the loan proceeds will be sent via ACH. As with a wire transfer, an
ACH electronically transfers your loan proceeds directly to your existing bank
account. We will initiate an ACH the same day if we receive a signed loan
agreement by 3:30 PM CST. However, with ACH the transfer will require one or
two days before you have access to your funds due to the way the banks process
the transfer. This option is always available to you with no charge, but the
time required makes it an undesirable option for many customers.
What do I need to get a loan?
In order to get a loan with us you need to have the following:
-
Valid E-mail address.
-
Job or verifiable source of income with Direct Deposit.
-
Checking or savings account.
-
Must be 18 years of age or older.
-

Will you run a Credit Check?
Yes, in order to verify your Social Security Number and other relevant details,
we do run a credit check. This credit check will not adversely affect your
credit.
What steps are involved in the loan process?
During the loan process the following steps will need to be completed:
-

page, you will be partnered with the Planet Cash affiliate that will process

How do I get the money that I borrow?
Upon approval, the money will be deposited directly into the bank account you
supplied or credited to your planet cash debit card. Funds will usually be
available the following business day. See "When will I receive my
money?" above for details.
How do I pay?
Your payment will be electronically debited from the bank account you supplied.
However, you will have several options concerning how to manage your account.
See "What do I do when my loan is due?" for details.
What do I do when my loan is due?
By logging into your Planet Cash account (See "How do I
access my Planet Cash account?" for details) you will be able to manage
your loan with ease. On or before your due date, you should login to let us
know what you want to do. You may:
Renew
- The renewal process varies slightly depending on state laws. Some states some
states set a maximum number of renewals you are allowed to do before you are
required to pay off in full and others do not allow it at all. Generally,
however, you may pay the finance charge for the previous two weeks to extend
the loan for another two weeks. You will be asked to sign a new loan contract.
Variations:
State-Mandated Pay Down: In some states,
you will also be required to make a small payment against your principal in
addition to the finance charge. In these states, your payment will be higher,
but your finance charge for the next two weeks will be lower. If your state is
one that requires a mandatory pay-down, the website will automatically
calculate the proper payment for you.
Voluntary Pay Down: You are always welcome
to pay any additional amount toward your principal. Anything amount you opt to
pay in addition to the finance charge will be credited to your principal and
will decrease the total amount you owe.
Pay Off - By selecting "Pay Off" from your
list of payment options in your account, you will be indicating your desire to
have the full amount of the loan plus all finance charges or any other fees
accrued electronically debited from your account. You may pay off at any time
on or before your due date. In some states, early pay-offs will be charged a
lower finance charge since the charge accrues at a daily rate.
Note: This is the default payment option. If you select no
payment option, the full amount due will be debited from your account on your
due date. If this is your option, you are welcome to do nothing and simply let
the loan be paid off automatically.
Make Payment - If you would like to make a
payment that is neither a renewal nor a full pay off, select "Make a Payment"
from your Planet Cash account. This is the selection if you wish to make
principal payments prior to the due date, pay on a bad debt account, or a
variety of other situations.
How do I access my Planet Cash account?
Your Planet Cash loan account is available to you 24 hours a day by
simply clicking on "Customer Log In" on the main page of
www.theplanetcash.com. You will be asked to enter your email address
and password. The email address must match the address you supplied on your
loan application and the password will be sent to your email address the first
time you are approved for a loan. However, you are able to change your password
to anything you wish once you have logged in to your account. If you forget
your password, you are always able to have your password reset by clicking on "Forgot
Your Password?" on the log in screen. A new password will be emailed to
the address supplied on your application. If you have any further trouble
accessing your account, you are always able to call Planet Cash toll free at
1-877-227-4744 for assistance.
Will I be approved?
thePlanetCash.com or its affiliates
will verify all the information you submit to us along with a credit check. If
the information you provide to us is accurate then you will probably be
approved.
Can I get a loan if I have filed for bankruptcy?
Past bankruptcies are no problem so long as they have been discharged. However,
if you are currently filing for bankruptcy, you will be unable to receive a
loan.
Why does Planet Cash use affiliates? Why don't they just
make the loan themselves?
Many online lenders operate from outside the country. While this is
convenient for the lender, it offers no consumer protection. Further, it is
ILLEGAL to offer a loan to a US resident unless the company is licensed by the
customer's state of residence. The vast majority of online lenders you are
likely to encounter are illegally offering you a loan to side-step your state's
consumer protection laws. By partnering with accredited local lenders, we feel
we can offer you the convenience of a nation-wide loan website coupled with the
security of a well-regulated lender.
How will I know what company I am
dealing with?
At Planet Cash, we are proud of our affiliates and they are proud of
the service they provide. Our affiliates are easy to contact and there will be
no confusion as to what company you are dealing with at any time. In addition
to their name and contact information displayed throughout your application
process, you can also view our list of affiliates and their areas by
clicking here.
What if I have problems completing the
online application or have a question?
Once you supply your zip code, the website will identify your local Planet Cash
affiliate. The toll free phone number and email address to contact your
affiliate will be conspicuously posted on every page of the application or by
clicking "Contact Us." Your local affiliate will be able to help you with any
questions you may have. Most affiliates are available Mon-Fri 10-6 and Sat
10-2. For a list of local affiliates and contact information,

or can't log in to your Planet Cash account, you may contact the website team
at Planet Cash directly by calling 1-877-227-4744 or by emailing
CustomerSupport@thePlanetCash.com .
