* What is a payday loan or cash advance?
It’s an important financial service used by thousands of consumers every week. It allows a person to get a small amount of cash for a short period, with the loan made against his or her next paycheck. The customer writes a personal check for the amount of the advance plus a fee, and then gets cash for that check, less the agreed-upon fee. The personal check is then held for a predetermined period – usually two weeks. At the end of the period the loan is repaid at the location where loan was issued.

* What is APR?
Annual percentage rate (APR) is an expression of the effective interest rate that the borrower will pay on a loan, taking into account one-time fees and standardizing the way the rate is expressed. In other words the APR is the total cost of credit to the consumer, expressed as an annual percentage of the amount of credit granted. APR is intended to make it easier to compare lenders and loan options.
The APR is likely to differ from the "note rate" or "headline rate" advertised by the lender, due to the addition of other fees that may need to be included in the APR
