QCash Financial was born out of WSECU in 2015 to provide a digital platform for credit unions to offer small-dollar, short-term loans (typically $500-$2,000) directly to their members through online or mobile banking, acting as an alternative to predatory payday loans. Their key feature is "relational underwriting," using a member's banking history and relationship with the credit union, rather than traditional credit scores, to provide fast, instant decisions and funding for unexpected life events like emergencies or repairs
In 2023, Alloya Corporate Federal Credit Union acquired QCash Financial as an independent, wholly-owned CUSO of Alloya. As a credit union for credit unions, Alloya’s sole mission is to support credit union success through affordable comprehensive products and services that will help each credit union gain strategic advantages in the marketplace while remaining safe, secure, and relevant for generations to come.
