What Can I Use as Collateral for a Cash Loan at a Pawn Shop?

​A cash loan from a pawn shop is an excellent option for so many people, whether they are looking to cover unexpected car repairs & medical bills, or if they are just looking to borrow a little cash until their next paycheck. As you might be aware, pawn loans don't look at things like your credit rating...no matter your financial situation or credit score, you can take out a quick cash loan from a pawn shop. However, you do have to bring in collateral to secure your fast cash loan, which you might have questions about. Our loan products are actually very easy to understand and pull off, and we accept many forms of collateral for both small-dollar loans and much bigger loans. If you have questions about what we accept as collateral for our loans, stop by or give us a call today.


Why Do Pawn Shops Ask for Collateral for a Cash Loan?

First, you could be wondering why pawn shops like Greenbrier Pawn ask for collateral for a cash loan. Well, it's simple, and it's beneficial for both us and our customers. Basically, many credit unions, banks, and other financial institutions base their loan application results on a credit decision. Many places turn potential customers down for loans because of credit challenges in the past, without regard to their current situation. This is common from the average bank, credit union, etc.. It's understandable, but it's unfortunate for a customer who just needs to take out a loan to prevent overdraft fees, cover day-to-day expenses until their next payday, or pay for something they need.


Unlike these local and online lenders, we don't look at stuff like that. We don't ask or care about your credit. Since our customers secure their loans with items of value, we are able to grant loans without asking a lot of questions or charging more than the lowest rates for pawn loans. Our financial products are made for anyone and everyone, whether you have a checking account or a good credit score or a long work history or not. We take the bare minimum of personal information from your ID to abide by state law before entering into a pawn loan agreement with you, but that's it. In general, your collateral secures your loan, so we aren't worried about it...and your loan proceeds are yours to spend on whatever you wish!
