An Installment Loan is GREAT for:
- Allowing larger potential credit limits than other types of short-term loans such as payday loans.
- Having a longer time to pay down the loan.
- Allowing every payment to pay down part of the amount borrowed, so you are always paying down your loan with each and every payment.
- Always knowing how many payments are due, how much you owe, and how much it will cost.
EMG is currently in the process of closing its storefronts in Louisiana, but we are happy to say that we’re transitioning online to Minute Loan Center (our partner and affiliated company outside Louisiana for over 10 years), and will continue to serve our Louisiana customers through its fantastic credit products. A super important step in this transition is that the local customer service specialists you have known for years (that worked in our EMG stores) will continue to service and manage your account!
You can contact one of our friendly customer service specialists at any time for more information or help in this transition.

Installment Loan FAQs
How Does an Installment Loan Work?
When is an Installment Loan the Right Choice?
2) You know exactly how much you need to borrow.
What Is My Annual Percentage Rate (APR)?
Always check your contract, as each contract is personally customized. Interest is always disclosed in the contract. Based on your original underwriting, the APR can vary when you take out separate advances. However, each customer is different and you should check your contract for more details.
Can I Choose a Billing Period?
We strive to make this as convenient as possible for our customers. Customers can choose to schedule automatic payments on their statement due date. The billing cycle will be determined by the Primary Income Pay Cycle, which should match the customer’s pay dates, except for Weekly paid customers being moved to a Bi-Weekly schedule.
The Pay Date Option is designed to make it easier for our VIP Members to manage their budget and fulfill their obligation.
When is My First Billing Period?
The first billing period is based on the VIP Member’s pay date and could range between 5 to 19 days after the first advance draw.
How Can I Receive My Statements?
Our product provides a statement available to our customers on their account page or the customer can elect to receive their statements by mail for an additional fee.
