North Dakota Bad Credit Military Lenders
We have reviewed 9 options for North Dakota bad credit military lenders.
The bad credit military lenders listed below include both civilian installment loan lenders and those specializing in military loans. Those who specialize in military installment loans are noted in the description.
Bad credit military lenders make loans targeted at members of the US Armed Forces. Generally these lenders are more familiar than traditional lenders with the financial demands of preparing for deployment, Permanent Change of Station moves around the world, or other situations unique to military families. In many cases, these military lenders have adapted their application process to the military. For example, they may be able to use military pay grades for pre-approval or a Leave and Earnings Statement to demonstrate income which helps them streamline the application process.
Bad credit military lenders range from regulated, established banks to unregulated, off-shore entities. This means prices and lending practices vary widely from great to predatory. The Military Lending Act prohibits typical payday loans to members of the military but not all loans to members of the military are covered by the Act so as with any financial product do your own due diligence before taking a loan. Short-term, emergency loans are best taken only when completely necessary and where a clear path to paying the loan off exists.
We review military lenders and rank them based on their reputation, cost, and features. Reputation considers state licensing and Better Business Bureau scores. Cost is based on terms, fees, and rates. Features include things like credit reporting or fee transparency. The list below includes both regulated banks as well as tribal lenders.

Additional Information on North Dakota Bad Credit Military Lenders
Service members who are North Dakota residents can choose from 9 bad credit military lenders.
The lenders listed here include civilian lenders and those specializing in military loans. If there are any that specialize in military loans it is noted in the description. Please visit bad credit military lenders for more detailed information.
When we talk about North Dakota military installment loans we are referring to loans being marketed to or offered to members of the US military. In many cases the lenders offering these loans make them available to people with all types of credit history. The loans are tied to your pay day--meaning your payments are due and often automatically withdrawn from your checking account on the day you are paid. These loans usually do not require collateral and have a simple application process. In addition, North Dakota bad credit military lenders focused specifically on the military are generally familiar with the financial demands of deployment or PCS moves. In many cases, loans can be pre-approved or based on your rank and a LES.
The trade-off and downside to these loans is the cost is generally very high. These loans rarely make economic sense except in the most dire of unavoidable emergencies. It is best to make sure you have considered other options including friends and family before taking one. For longer term needs consider other Borrow Money Options if at all possible.
Military installment loans are covered by the Military Lending Act. The CFPB lists the rights covered by the MLA as,
-
A 36% interest cap
Interest is capped at 36% Military Annual Percentage Rate (MAPR). MAPR includes the following costs in calculating your interest rate:
- Finance charges
- Credit insurance premiums or fees
- Add-on products sold in connection with the credit
- Other fees like application or participation fees (see execptions here).
-
No mandatory waivers of consumer protection laws
A creditor can’t require you to submit to mandatory arbitration or give up certain rights you have under State or Federal laws like the Service Members Civil Relief Act.
-
No mandatory allotments
A creditor can’t require you to create a voluntary military allotment in order to get the loan. An allotment is an automatic amount of money taken from your paycheck to pay back your loan.
-
No prepayment penalty.
A creditor can’t charge a penalty if you pay back the loan early either partially or in-full.
North Dakota bad credit military lenders will vary from FDIC regulated banks to unregulated offshore entities. Predatory lenders with aggressive and sometimes illegal lending tactics do exist so take precautions before signing any documents and only take out a short term loan if it's necessary. If your loan terms do not follow the above rules we think it's best to avoid that lender. Doshound believes state-licensed lenders or banks are a safer choice for borrowers and would avoid unlicensed lenders. See North Dakota Payday Loan Laws for additional resources or visit North Dakota's payday loan regulator, the North Dakota Department of Financial Institutions, for more information.
