Lansing, MI — After the Senate and House approved the Michigan payday loan bill, Governor Granholm signed the piece of the legislation. This new law regulates payday lending in Michigan.
The new law limits borrowers to a maximum $600 loan in a 31-day period, and lets lenders charge service fees between 11% and 15%.
The legislation also requires lenders to get a license from the state by June 1 and limits customers from taking out multiple payday advances at the same time.
