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

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.

the service in the store is great. we have been a customer for several years and they can't seem to set up an email alert for the payment every month. I have had to put it on a calendar. That is the reason for the 3 star.

The office that I frequent has some of the most efficient and friendly employees I have ever met. I am of limited mobility & when I need to visit the office, I drive to the front & they come out to help me at the car. Now who does that? Other than really caring people! Love them!

I have done business with this group of folks through several name changes, and a lot of different employees. I have never received anything but excellent service from all. Donna and Edwina are the main two that have helped me the most. I am handicapped and when I have any business at the office, someone will even come out to my car to transact the forms. Service could not be better!!!! Thanks.
