Georgia Payday Loan Laws:
In general Georgia law prohibits the making of any loans of $3,000 or less if that loan violates Georgia's usury law. Payday lenders in Georgia are not permitted to loan borrowers less than $3,000 for more than 16% APR. A payday lender is permitted to charge 16% APR if it attempts to loan money directly to its customers and only then if the in-state lender holds more than a 50% interest in the revenues from the loan. However a state chartered bank operating under the laws of another state and insured by the FDIC, that is not operating in violation of the federal and state laws applicable to that state charter, is not limited by Georgia's 16% cap. (See Georgia Code Ann. ยงยง16-17-1 to 16-17-10).
