Roy does not have a Desert Rock Capital branch inside the city. Our nearest office is in Salt Lake City, about 33 miles south, roughly a 41-minute drive down I-15. For most Roy residents, applying online is the simplest path, and the experience is the same as walking into a branch.

What we offer Roy borrowers

Desert Rock Capital is a licensed Utah consumer lender. We are not a payday lender. We provide personal installment loans, also called signature loans, from $100 to $3,000. No credit check. No collateral. A real loan officer reviews every application personally, basing the decision on your income and ability to repay.

Here is what that looks like:

  • Apply online or visit our Salt Lake City branch.
  • A real decision in about 30 minutes during business hours.
  • If approved, funds can be ready the same day.
  • Fixed, predictable biweekly payments over a set term.
  • No prepayment penalty, pay early and you only pay interest for the days you had the loan.
  • No hidden fees. No balloon payment.

How an installment loan stacks up for Roy families

Roy is a community of working families, and not everyone has a credit file a bank wants to see. Here is how the options compare:

  • Bank or credit union loan: If your credit is strong and you can wait a few days, a bank may offer a lower rate. Start there if you qualify. If not, or if you need a faster decision without a credit pull, we are an alternative.
  • Payday loan: One lump sum plus a fee, due on your next payday. Works for a tiny, short-term need. For anything larger, our installment structure gives you a fixed schedule and a clear finish line.
  • Title loan: Your vehicle is collateral, the lender can take it if you miss payments. Our loans are unsecured. Your car is never at risk.
  • Cash advance: A credit-card advance has a fee and interest that starts immediately, with no grace period. Our loan has a defined term and a known payoff date.

How to apply from Roy

Two routes:

  1. Apply online. Fill out the application on our site. A loan officer, not a computer, reviews it. During business hours, expect a response in about 30 minutes.
  2. Drive to Salt Lake City. Our SLC branch is about 33 miles / 41 minutes south on I-15. Open until 8 PM on weekdays. Call 801-377-3333 or text 435-220-4549 before you make the trip, especially if you have questions about what to bring.

What you need

Proof of income, a valid government-issued ID, and an active checking account. Bad credit or no credit history is not a barrier, we do not run a credit check. What matters is your current income and whether you can afford the payments.

Questions Roy borrowers often ask

Do you have a branch in Roy?

No. The closest Desert Rock Capital branch is in Salt Lake City, about 33 miles / 41 minutes south. You can also apply entirely online.
