Frequently Asked Questions

What documents do I need to apply for a 1st Franklin loan?

As part of the process, we will need a few documents to secure your loan. You’ll need valid identification, such as driver’s license, social security card or birth certificate, proof of address such as utility or phone bill, voter registration card or mortgage statement, and verifiable income such as paystub, tax return or bank statement.

What loan amounts do you offer?

1ˢᵗ Franklin Financial offers loans up to $15,000.

Can I qualify for a loan if I have a low credit score?

If you have a low credit score, we can still help. We make loans to fit just about any budget.

Approvals are done right at the branch, so you can get your money fast. Sometimes in the same day.

How is a 1ˢᵗ Franklin Financial loan different from a payday loan?

Went by the Buford branch today to inquire about a loan. The entire staff (Randall,Daniel,Emily)provided outstanding service. Roadside Service assistance is even included with the loan package. By far the best Financial company i have did business with.
