Compare lawful Colorado installment categories and ways to manage the bill before choosing a repayment schedule.
Capped statutory borrowing
A licensed deferred-deposit loan can be lawful up to $500 at no more than 36% APR for at least six calendar months; this describes legal authority, not a confirmed offer.
Bank or credit-union installments
Small installment lending by banks or credit unions follows its own applicable law. Ask about the specific product, total cost and schedule rather than applying the special cap automatically.
Discuss a creditor arrangement
Contact the company owed money to ask whether a different payment date or schedule is possible; obtain the terms before relying on that option.
Postpone the expense if practical
If the purchase can safely wait, compare postponing it with the payments a loan would add to future budgets.
How Colorado Caps the Statutory Loan Option
Check lawful Colorado options with the correct product rules, inclusive charges and payment schedule.
Colorado retains a statutory deferred-deposit category up to $500 in aggregate amount financed per lender. Since February 1, 2019, its APR includes all finance charges and cannot exceed 36%; legal authority does not confirm a current lender offer.
That category requires at least six calendar months, has no statutory maximum term, permits one renewal within the APR cap and requires a 30-day wait between loans. Bank and credit-union installment loans follow their own law, so the special cap must not be applied to every Colorado consumer loan.
If payments become difficult, speak to the lender about the schedule; a renewal is not promised. Under the Act, a returned-instrument charge is limited to one up to $25 plus specified court-awarded costs, and criminal penalties are barred subject to the closed-account exception.
| Governing law | Colorado Deferred Deposit Loan Act, C.R.S. 5-3.1-101 et seq.; 103, 105, 106, 108, 112, 120 |
|---|---|
| Product under state law | Deferred deposit loan / payday loan (rate-limited statutory product) |
| Maximum amount | $500 - Statutory deferred deposit amount financed per lender, not a promise of market availability. |
| Loan term | 6-12 months |
| Fees and interest | All finance charges included in APR; APR must not exceed 36%. Effective February 1, 2019 under Proposition 111. |
| Rollovers and renewals | One renewal, still subject to 36% APR. |
| Loans at the same time | Count not fixed; $500 aggregate amount financed per lender. |
| Waiting period | 30-day waiting period between loans under 5-3.1-106(1). |
| Returned-payment fee | One returned instrument charge up to $25, plus specified court-awarded costs. |
| Criminal prosecution | No criminal penalty for agreement/dishonor, subject to closed-account exception in 5-3.1-120. |
