Editorial Standards

Primary-source first

Legal and regulatory claims should be based on Kentucky statutes, Kentucky Department of Financial Institutions material and enacted legislation before secondary summaries are used.

Company-identity verification

Legal entity, DBA, license references and people are tied to named sources. The site does not invent staff biographies, professional credentials, ratings or licensing claims.

Calculation standard

Every calculator or example states the formula, amount, term and included fees. Illustrative annualized percentages are labeled as estimates and are not presented as a contract APR.

Material-change review

Fee limits, proceeds caps, transaction-fee rules and eligibility requirements should be rechecked when Kentucky law or DFI regulations change.

Corrections

If a source conflicts with another source, the higher-authority source controls. A material error affecting cost, eligibility, licensing or consumer-protection guidance should be corrected promptly and consistently across the site.

Consumer-first presentation

Important costs, risks and limits should be visible before calls to action. Short-term credit should not be presented as guaranteed, risk-free or suitable for ongoing budget deficits.
