That means the borrower provides an item, or items, of collateral as security for the loan. The pawnbroker makes the loan based on the value of the collateral. When the loan is repaid, the collateral is returned to the borrower. There's never a credit check, nor do we report to credit agencies.
Items often used as collateral include:
Pawnbrokers do not check the borrower's credit history and pawn loans are non-recoursive, meaning that if the borrower defaults on the loan it is not reported to any credit agency. If the borrower does not repay the loan the pawnbroker simply forecloses on the collateral and places it for sale.
Pawn loans are short-term loans. They are typically written up for one month; however, they can be renewed for additional one month periods if the borrower chooses to do so. During the term of the loan the property used as collateral for the loan is securely stored by the pawnbroker.
