Frequently Asked Questions

  • How does a pawn work?

    For those times when you need cash, you can use personal items as collateral to borrow money for an agreed upon period of time. We keep the item(s) in a safe place for the duration of your loan. You can pay your loan in full and retrieve your item(s) when the pawn loan is due. You can also choose to renew or extend the loan (if available).

    You do not have to repay your pawn loan. Instead, you can surrender the items you used as collateral for the pawn loan. If you do surrender your items there is no recourse. There is also no negative reporting to any credit agencies.

  • What is a pawn loan extension?

    You may be able to extend the due date of your loan. To do so you will need to pay any outstanding pawn service charges. The availability of extensions and exact terms are different by state. Talk to a Team Member for more information.

  • Can I renew a pawn loan?

    A pawn loan may be renewable, but each state has its own rules. A renewal is considered a new pawn loan. Paying outstanding pawn service charges is usually required to renew your pawn loan for an additional term. Talk to a Team Member for more information.

  • Is my item safe?

    Your item will be kept safe and secure for the duration of your pawn loan.

  • Do I need a credit check for a pawn loan?

    No. We do not check your credit for pawn loans.

  • How do you value an item?

    Each item is assessed by our knowledgeable Team Members. We also use a proprietary pawn loan management software to standardize the process. The value is determined based on several considerations, including the condition of the item and market demand for the item.

  • How do you value jewelry?

    Jewelry will be appraised by our staff with expertise in this area and our proprietary pawn loan management software. A number of considerations, including the weight and authenticity help determine the value. For jewelry that contains diamonds, size, quality, and authenticity of the diamonds will be considered in arriving at a final valuation.

  • What are my payment options?

    We have a few payment options available for you.

    1. Pay at the store
