A cash advance allows you to trade a part of your available credit limit for cash. If you have a credit card that offers a cash advance, you can usually withdraw the cash at an ATM or at your local bank. Since Chime doesn't offer cash advance, you'll need to find another app that works well with it. Luckily, there are plenty of popular cash advance apps to choose from. Keep in mind that these services will usually have fees, requirements, and/or interest rates with repayment. This wikiHow will show you the best payday loan (cash advance) apps that you can use with Chime.

Additionally, if you aren't able to replay your advance in full, the app will take partial payments from your account until the loan is fully paid off.
    • Though the cost is lower than competitors, you'll still need to pay a monthly membership fee to use MoneyLion.

    This is similar to a cash advance, but it works a bit differently. Depending on your direct deposit history, spending activity, and other factors, you'll be able to overdraw your account by $20 initially. This limit can increase up to $200.
