An installment loan offers a simple way to borrow money and repay it through a series of scheduled payments over time. At Dash Credit, the timing and amount of your payments depend on several factors, including the amount you borrow, the interest rate, the total number of installments and how often you get paid. Dash Credit installment loans are typically paid back over nine or 10 months, depending on your level in Dash Loyalty Advantage.

At Dash, loan payment dates typically fall on your pay dates. As an example, we can compare two customers borrowing the same amount - one who is paid every two weeks and the other who is paid once a month. If their repayment schedules are nine months long, the customer who is paid every two weeks would have 18 smaller payments over those nine months — while the customer who is paid monthly would have nine larger payments over the same time period.

You're free to pay off your Dash Credit loan early without penalty. Paying off your loan early could potentially save on interest charges.

It’s simple. The basic requirements include:

  • You must be at least 18 years old and a U.S. resident
  • You must reside in a state where Dash does business
  • You must have an open checking account
  • You must have a steady, verifiable income that is deposited into your checking account
  • Your take-home pay has to meet our minimum income criteria
  • You cannot currently be in bankruptcy or planning to file for bankruptcy

It’s quick and easy. If you've never had a loan with us before, go to our online loan application. You'll be asked to provide some information about yourself, your income and your bank. Then, submit your application and you’ll typically find out within moments if you're approved.

You can review and eSign your loan documents right away. Some customers will need a short confirmation call with Customer Service to finalize their loans, while others will be eligible for Call-Free Funding.

If you're a VIP, the process is the same, except that you log in for your personalized VIP Loan Application, the fastest way to apply. Just tell us how much you want, click to confirm your info in three sections and submit.

If you prefer to apply by phone, we can do that too. Just call us at 833-889-1294, any time, 24/7.

No, our loans do not require collateral.

You may still qualify. We provide loans to people with all kinds of credit histories.

It depends on several factors, including your level in Dash Loyalty Advantage. Under our customer rewards program, the maximum amount a new customer could be eligible for is $2,000 – while customers at the highest tier could qualify for up to $3,750.

You could get your money as soon as the same day.* Customers who finalize their loans before 11:45 a.m. Eastern Time on banking business days qualify for Free Same Day Funding.* If you don't meet the Same Day Funding deadline, you typically receive your funds on the next business day.

Your payment due dates are usually on the days you get paid. At Dash, when you opt to pay by Electronic Funds Transfer, your loan payments are automatically deducted from your checking account on due dates.

If you'd like to pay off your loan faster - and potentially save on interest charges - you can add an amount to any existing payment, pay off your loan early in one lump sum or potentially make a principal-only payment. You can do this yourself in our online payment portal. Or if you prefer, call Customer Service at 833-889-1294 to make these arrangements by phone.

Warm Lodge Inc., d/b/a Dash Credit, is a sovereign enterprise wholly-owned and controlled by the Mandan, Hidatsa, and Arikara Nation, a federally-recognized American Indian Tribe. As a tribal entity, Dash Credit operates as an economic development arm of the Tribe, and the proceeds from our business fund governmental services for tribal citizens.

How does this affect me as a borrower?

Because Dash Credit is a tribal entity, your loan is governed by Tribal law and regulated by the Tribe, rather than by state law or state regulators. This means:

  • Applicable Law: Your loan agreement is governed by Tribal law and federal law, not state law
  • Regulation: Dash Credit is regulated by tribal authorities, not state banking or lending regulators
  • Dispute Resolution: Your loan agreement contains specific provisions for resolving disputes through an internal complaint process followed by individual arbitration or, in limited circumstances, small claims court
  • Sovereign Immunity: The Tribe and Dash Credit possess sovereign immunity as governmental entities, with limited exceptions as described in your loan agreement

What if I have a problem or dispute?

We’re committed to excellent customer service and want to resolve any issues quickly and fairly. If you have a concern, here’s the process:

Step 1: Contact Our Customer Service Team
Most issues can be resolved directly with our support team. Contact us at 833-889-1294 or info@dashcredit.com.

Step 2: Internal Complaint Process
If your issue isn’t resolved through customer service, you can submit a formal complaint to our Compliance Department. We’ll acknowledge your complaint within 10 business days and provide a substantive response within 30 days.

Step 3: Arbitration
If you’re dissatisfied with our response, your loan agreement provides for individual arbitration before a neutral arbitrator. You choose the arbitration organization and format (online, by phone, or in person). We typically pay all arbitration fees (see your loan agreement for specifics).

Step 4: Small Claims Court (Optional)
Alternatively, either party may file an individual claim in small claims court. However, the other party has 20 days to move the case to arbitration instead.

Important: The specific procedures, timelines, and your rights are detailed in your loan agreement. We encourage you to review these terms carefully before borrowing.

*Same Day Funding is available on business days where pre-approval, eSignature of the loan agreement and completion of the confirmation call, if a call is required, have occurred by 11:45 a.m. Eastern Time and a customer elects ACH as payment method. Customers who complete this process by 1:30 p.m. Eastern on business days may still receive funds on the same day, but some banks may not disburse the funds until the next business day. Other restrictions may apply. Certain financial institutions do not support same day funded transactions. When Same Day Funding is not available, funding will occur the next business day.
