What it costs from Aiken
Location does not change the price: tribal lenders charge Aiken residents exactly what they charge everyone else in SC — $500 over six biweekly months at 490% APR runs about $770 total.
For scale: a licensed South Carolina payday loan is capped at $45 per $300 (391% APR) under S.C. Code Ann. § 34-39-110 et seq. — where that product exists, it is the cheaper two-week option.

City facts come from the census gazetteer (population, county). Lender availability is computed from each brand’s published exclusion list (verified September 2026) and applies statewide — tribal lenders do not license by city. Figures are informational, not a loan offer.
