Who We Are
We are a consumer loan company passionate about giving our customers the top-tier service they deserve. Here at Atlas Credit, we offer a wide range of personal loan and installment loan options to meet your needs. Our range of personal loans includes credit starter loans, signature loans, and more, with amounts ranging from $100 to $1,800.
Established in Tyler, Texas, in 1968, what began as a one-office operation has evolved into a nationwide company, with over 50 locations dotted across Texas, Oklahoma, and Virginia.
How Our Personal Loans Work
One of the most significant benefits of our personal loans is that our repayment terms are long-term-friendly. Unlike most regular payday companies, we offer long-term repayment options that enable you to pay back your loan comfortably, and in small payments.
Our available loan repayment options range from five to 12 months, and alongside our financial support, you will also receive guidance at every step of your loan journey. When you borrow from Atlas Credit, you are fully informed about the details of your contract, including your monthly payment amount, your payment due dates, and the total amount owed.
Plus, once you have entered into an agreement with us, we will not change the terms or fees of your contract with us for the duration of the agreement. You benefit from having a fixed plan, around which you can consistently plan and budget.
The Application and Payment Process
Whether you decide to apply in person or online, our application process is quick and easy.
Our online application form takes only a few minutes to complete, and we will get back to you on the status of your loan as quickly as possible — sometimes even on the same day!
Once your loan has been approved, a member of the Atlas Credit team will discuss the terms of your loan with you. This part of the process involves assessing your financial situation to determine what kind of repayments and timescales would work best for you. That way, you can enter into the agreement feeling confident and on top of your finances.
This bespoke approach to consumer loans enables us to give each of our customers the treatment they require, as everyone has different finances and unique circumstances to consider.

Meet Isaac
Following a destructive car accident, Isaac Lopez needed to find a way to fix his family car without impeding the payment of his regular bills and expenses.
Isaac was caught at a difficult crossroads. Bank loans were too expensive, and there didn't seem to be many options available at short notice. Luckily, he discovered us.
When facing a financial crisis, Isaac came to Atlas Credit and received the support he needed to repair his damaged car and continue with his day-to-day life seamlessly.
Following his positive loan experience with us, Isaac started turning to Atlas Credit for help with smaller needs, borrowing money quickly and easily to buy school essentials, and to finance enjoyable things, such as holidays and special occasions.
Our favorite quote from Isaac:
“We [needed a loan] to fix the car without affecting our bills. But in between there to now, it’s been like school supplies, it’s been Christmas, it’s been Valentine’s Day.”
Meet Oralia
Through the good times and the bad, Atlas Credit Co. is here for you.
Oralia Salinas was met with one of the hardest situations life can bring when her daughter passed away. When the time came to bury her child, Oralia did not have enough money to give her child the burial she deserved.
Experiencing the loss of a loved one is hard enough as it is, without having to worry about its financial implications.
That's why Oralia turned to us.
With a hassle-free loan from Atlas Credit, Oralia received the money she needed to bury her daughter, and was met with kindness and compassion along the way.
Our favorite quote from Oralia:

Meet Carlos
Sometimes, you might not need a loan for a specific problem or emergency scenario. Loans can be a great way to give yourself some leeway with general life expenses and day-to-day costs.
For Carlos Quintero, loans from Atlas Credit do more than help him in times of trouble. They also provide the cushion he needs to catch up on other financial responsibilities and improve his credit score in the meantime.
Our favorite quote from Carlos:
“The loan helps you to breathe. It helps you to go to sleep at night…It ended up giving us that little cushion that we needed so that we [could] catch up on the other little things and keep us going.”
