Disclosure
1. Tribal Lending Notice
Layma, LLC dba Little Lake Lending USA is a wholly-owned enterprise of the Big Valley Band of Pomo Indians of the Big Valley Rancheria ("Tribe"), a federally-recognized sovereign American Indian tribe. Little Lake Lending USA operates under Tribal law and is subject to applicable federal law. Little Lake Lending USA is not subject to state lending laws, including state interest rate caps or state consumer protection laws.
By applying for a loan with Little Lake Lending USA, you acknowledge that your loan will be governed by Tribal law and applicable federal law, and that you consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Tribal Court of the Big Valley Band of Pomo Indians for any disputes arising from your loan.
2. Loan Cost Disclosure
Loans offered by Little Lake Lending USA carry a high Annual Percentage Rate (APR). The APR for your specific loan will be disclosed in your Loan Agreement prior to signing. The cost of borrowing depends on the loan amount, loan term, and your individual APR.
Example for illustration only: A $1,000 loan with a 12-month term at a representative APR of 299% would result in 12 monthly payments of approximately $250. Total repayment would be approximately $3,000, of which $2,000 represents interest charges. Actual terms will vary based on your individual application.
3. Prepayment Disclosure
There is no prepayment penalty for paying off your loan early. You may pay all or part of your outstanding balance at any time. Early repayment reduces the total interest you pay. We actively encourage responsible early repayment.
4. Real-Time Funding Disclosure
Real-Time Funding is available at no additional charge to eligible approved borrowers. While Little Lake Lending USA initiates disbursement immediately upon loan execution, funds may not appear in your account immediately.
