Texas Schedule of All Fees (Online)
Effective March 2022
Thank you for your interest in TMX Credit, Inc. d/b/a TitleMax ("CSO"). CSO provides credit services - it helps consumers obtain loans from a third-party lender and issues a credit enhancement to the third-party lender to back up consumer's promise to pay the loan. CSO is not a lender. As a condition to getting credit services from CSO and a loan from the third-party lender, consumer must grant to CSO and the lender a lien on consumer's unencumbered motor vehicle.
CSO Credit Services and Fee Schedule
- Credit Services: CSO's credit services include: (a) arranging for consumers loans secured by liens on unencumbered motor vehicle titles, with terms not to exceed 180 days and an Amount Financed from $100.00 to $10,100, and with an annual interest rate not to exceed 9.95% (each a "Loan"); (b) helping consumers complete the paperwork (including the credit application) needed to get a Loan from Lender; and (c) providing to Lender in respect of each Loan from Lender a letter of credit, guaranty, or other credit enhancement satisfactory to Lender that backs the consumer's repayment of the Loan (with any such letter of credit, guaranty, or other credit enhancement being referred to as the "Letter of Credit").
- Lien Filing Fee: Either $28 or $33 (depending on the county in which the lien is filed), payable to the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles. Lien filing fees for other states may vary. Both the Lender's lien and the CSO's lien are covered by the same filing fee. The lien filing fee is included as part of the Amount Financed.
- Charges After Default; Costs of Collection: At any time after the occurrence of any default that results in CSO paying Lender under the Letter of Credit, then CSO may recover from Consumer all charges, costs, fees and expenses, including all collection costs and reasonable attorneys' fees incurred or paid in exercising any right, power or remedy provided by the CSO Contract or by law, and charge interest on all or a portion of the principal paid by CSO to Lender under the Letter of Credit, as provided in Consumer Reimbursement Obligation below.
- Consumer Reimbursement Obligation: If CSO pays Lender any amount under the Letter of Credit for any reason, Consumer must reimburse CSO for all such amounts that CSO pays to Lender. Interest will accrue on the unreimbursed portion of principal for which CSO pays Lender under the Letter of Credit at the rate of 9.95% per annum (subject to applicable limits).

CSO Fee - 30-Day Credit Products: The CSO Fee is a percentage of the Amount Financed, calculated as shown in the following table.

An advance of money obtained through a payday loan or auto title loan is not intended to meet long-term financial needs. A payday loan or auto title loan should only be used to meet immediate short-term cash needs. Refinancing the loan rather than paying the debt in full when due will require the payment of additional charges.
