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.

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?

Glenda and the whole staff at the Newport office are amazing. I got sick and fell on a hardship. The staff never gave up and worked with me. This does NOT happen anymore. I can not thank you enough.

They have been a pleasure to work with and the process was quick and easy. The interest rate was a little high but mostly because of my low credit score. Thanks for the loan and getting my credit score up to where I need it.
