Terms and Conditions of Use
Effective date: 3/3/2020
The following Terms and Conditions constitute a binding contract between PaydaySeek.com (referred to as “PaydaySeek,” “us,” “we,” “our,” or “ours”) and the visitor (“user,” “users,” “you,” “your,” or “yours”) who seeks to access and utilize the PaydaySeek website located at https://paydayseek.com (“the Website”). These provisions outline the specific rules governing this arrangement.
PaydaySeek functions neither as a lender nor as a provider of financial products or services, and it holds no authority regarding credit approvals. We do not act on behalf of any bank, credit union, or financial institution. Instead, we provide matching services that connect users with a network of independent third-party lenders (“Lenders”) who may offer loans and other financial products. To facilitate these connections, we require the submission of a registration form via the Website.
Please read this entire document and other legal documents on the Website in order to better understand how our services work, how to use our services, and what happens when you submit personal information to us. When you submit a registration form, it is a legally-binding agreement that you have read and understood these documents, including these Terms and Conditions and our Privacy Policy, and that you request to use our services.
Only residents of the United States of America (“USA”) who are 18 years of age or older may access the Website and use our services. Our services are not available to residents in some states due to laws and regulations regarding short-term cash loans. Such states may include, Georgia, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia as well as others; this list is subject to changes by lawmakers, so please check the legal status of these loans in your own state on our Rates and Fees page, which includes resources and information about short-term loans, the industry, and common practices.
If you wish to decline these Terms and Conditions, you must immediately close all browser windows associated with the Website and refrain from submitting any personal data to us.
Company Services
As PaydaySeek is not a lending institution or financial entity, we do not influence loan or credit approvals. Our role is strictly limited to connecting users with Lenders who operate independently and can provide financial products. These Lenders may offer short-term loans with terms that differ by state. Certain Lenders may provide loan amounts reaching $1,000.
PaydaySeek does not control loan distribution or credit approvals, as these decisions are made solely by the Lenders. Consequently, we cannot assure approval or guarantee a match with any specific lender, even though some may offer up to $1,000. Not all Lenders offer this maximum amount.
Users with questions regarding short-term lending or specific offers should consult a professional advisor. Short-term loans are intended for immediate financial emergencies; prolonged use can lead to significant costs. Users are responsible for managing these loans responsibly.
Since PaydaySeek does not control loan or credit product terms, we assume no liability for information or decisions related to specific loans or credit products.
Continuing to use the Website confirms your acceptance of these Terms and Conditions and other regulatory documents. You acknowledge that PaydaySeek bears no responsibility for damages or costs arising from your interactions with Lenders.
You must complete the online registration form before using our services. This requires providing personal details, including contact, employment, financial status, and sensitive data such as your social security number (“SSN”) and banking information. We use this data to match you with Lenders and share it with them accordingly. Do not provide information you do not wish us to collect, store, use, or share.
We collect, store, use, and share information according to policies documented on the Website, including the Privacy Policy, Responsible Lending Policies, and Marketing Practices. Your voluntary submission of your own information legally serves as confirmation that you have read and understood these and all other documents delineating our standards and practices, including these Terms and Conditions of Use. Your voluntary submission of your own information also serves as a request that we use your information and share it with Lenders in order to match you with one or more Lenders; you agree that this gives Lenders authorization to contact you using the contact information provided by you in our online registration form, which may include your email address, telephone number, and direct mailing address. This contact may include offers for financial products and services in which you express your interest when you register with the Website.
Your SSN and banking details are considered sensitive personal information, which we safeguard through rigorous security protocols. We may share less-sensitive data with contracted third-party marketers (“Marketers”). Lenders may also share such data with their own marketers, who might contact you regarding additional financial products.
PaydaySeek does not conduct credit checks or verifications. Lenders may require credit verification and use your data for this purpose before approving offers. Approval is at the Lender’s discretion, and we cannot guarantee approval or that Lenders will offer all matching products. We have no authority over financial products or contracts; for transaction details, contact the Lender directly.
