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. Our Premier Loans are available up to $10,000.
Minimum loan amounts vary by state.
State: AL – Minimum Loan Amount: $1,000
State: GA – Minimum Loan Amount: $1,250

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.
How long does it take to get approved?
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?
1ˢᵗ Franklin Financial is not a payday lender nor do we offer loans secured against a customer’s next paycheck. We offer customers short and long term installment loans with payment plans that fit each customer’s need.

Great customer service, friendly and always helpful. Only thing that disappointed me was the fact that I had an error online with my checking account number and now I cannot even make a payment with a check. The way I work it is hard for me to get there before I get off. I would recomend this company.
