“We are delighted to offer installment loans to Floridians,” said Mike Rhodes, vice president of operations for Advance America. “Our clients tell us regularly that they would benefit from having a choice between short and long term loan options to manage their financial obligations, and now we can help meet that need.”
In more than 20 years in business, Advance America has issued 124 million low-value loans in stores across the country and online, providing consumers with a range of innovative and regulated credit options for a range of amounts and of conditions in principal. In Florida, the company already offers low-amount two-week loans.
