Payday Loans Online in Alaska
Alaska borrowers can request a payday loan online and receive offers from direct lenders within minutes - no branch visits, no delays. Bromoney connects you with licensed AK lenders who work with all credit types.
What Is a Payday Loan?
A payday loan is a small, short-term cash advance, usually from $100 to $1,000, meant to cover immediate costs until your next payday. Repayment is typically due in a single payment within 14 to 30 days. Lenders often prioritize your income and bank activity over your credit score, so qualification may be possible despite poor credit history.

Compare RatesFast Funding
Alaska borrowers who submit a request before noon often receive a lender decision the same business day, with funds deposited by the next morning.
Bad Credit OK

Every lender accessible through Bromoney in Alaska holds an active license issued by the Alaska Division of Banking and Securities and complies with the Alaska Deferred Deposit Advance Act.

Local Alaska Insights
Market Insight: Alaska
Alaska's $500 loan cap and $15-per-$100 fee structure place it in a mid-tier regulatory position compared to neighbors. Washington State caps loans at $700 with similar fees, while payday lending is banned entirely in Oregon for terms under 31 days. Alaska offers more access than Oregon but tighter caps than Washington.
Borrower Protection
Alaska payday loan borrowers are protected under the Alaska Deferred Deposit Advance Act, enforced by the Alaska Division of Banking and Securities (part of the Department of Commerce, Community, and Economic Development). Borrowers can file complaints at commerce.alaska.gov/web/dbs or by calling the division directly. Licensed lenders must provide a written loan agreement disclosing all fees, the APR, and repayment terms before funds are disbursed.

Questions about this product
How much can I borrow with a payday loan in Alaska?
Alaska law caps payday loans at $500 per loan. Lenders cannot legally offer deferred deposit advances above this limit to AK residents, regardless of income or credit score.
What fees do Alaska payday lenders charge?
Under Alaska Statute 6.50.460, lenders may charge up to $15 per $100 borrowed, plus a non-refundable origination fee of up to $5. On a $500 loan, the maximum fee is $75, making the APR approximately 391% for a two-week term.
Can I get a payday loan in Alaska with bad credit?
Yes. Most payday lenders in Alaska do not require good credit. Approval is typically based on proof of income and an active checking account, not your credit score. Bromoney connects you with direct lenders who accept applications from borrowers with poor or limited credit history.
How long do I have to repay a payday loan in Alaska?
Alaska sets a minimum repayment term of 14 days and a maximum of 30 days for payday loans. Lenders cannot require repayment in less than two weeks from the date of the advance.
Are rollovers allowed on payday loans in Alaska?
Alaska law permits up to two rollovers per loan, but each rollover carries additional fees. Financial counselors generally advise repaying the full balance on the original due date to avoid compounding costs.
What is an online payday loan and how does the BroMoney marketplace work?
An online payday loan is a short-term, small-dollar loan typically due on the borrower's next payday, applied for and funded entirely online, with availability governed by state law. BroMoney is an online loan marketplace — not a direct lender — that connects borrowers with a network of 1,200+ licensed U.S. lender partners. Borrowers complete one online form in about 5 minutes. In practice, BroMoney then matches them with lenders using a soft inquiry, which does not affect your FICO® score, and borrowers review all offers before committing. Final approval is subject to each lender's own review criteria, and payday loan availability through BroMoney varies by state law.
