In St. Petersburg that means up to $500 under Florida law, cleared in a single debit when payday lands.

What It Takes to Qualify in St. Petersburg

What Florida Law Guarantees You

Paying a fee to push the due date out is not allowed under state rule. A statutory cancellation right also applies: End of next business day, at no cost. Licensing and complaints run through the Florida Office of Financial Regulation: verify any lender before signing, and keep the complaint route from the Florida state page handy.
